2up prototype

Development build of 2up, a take on the single-screen multiplayer games of yore, for Playdate. For this proof-of-concept, modes inspired by Spacewar, Pong, Combat, and the Biplanes mode from Intellivision's Triple Action are included, and are freely selectable. The intended experience (on by default) is the Shuffle mode, which increasingly randomizes and recombines these games. This yields some pretty good mismatches.

This is two-player only, with each player holding half of the Playdate's controls. Analogue control for the left player (as applicable) is provided via tilt. Details on control are displayed on the menu screen.

Many, many more games, alternate modes (eg steerable shots, invisible tanks) and levels will be dumped into this blender if anyone wants this. Anything from 1982 or earlier is potentially fair game.
