Super ICARUS
A downloadable game
Now available on Playdate Catalog! https://play.date/games/icarus/
Score points by flying close to the edge, but not too close! Colliding will drop mines & make things more difficult. Fly through the centre area to regain energy and generate power-ups.

Game Jam
This was my entry into the #yellowsquarejam for Playdate, October 2023.
I was a very late entry and created this game between 26th and 29th. That version had fundamentally broken controls so has been retired.

If you like ICARUS you'll really love my game YOYOZO (featured in Ars Technica's "Best Games of 2023") which is OUT NOW: https://play.date/games/yoyozo/
