Aww, thanks, and thanks for playing! I knew I wanted to do some sort of space shooter and when the theme was announced I felt like it was perfect. It ended up becoming sort of a love letter to an old DOS game called Overkill I played a lot when I was a kid, because I am old.
DOS games were great even better once Shell was introduced to make it easier to navigate, The shareware era of having a boot drive full of iD software games ( I think at the time called Apogee? its been a long while ) like Commander keen was golden!
