I was able to get it with your hint about the corner trick. Thanks! That was definitely the hardest puzzle so far.

Thanks! The Playdate lets you specify some images to display on-screen between the main menu and the game starting, so I used that to do a simple "wipe" transition. Basically, the sprite walks left to right, the right side of the screen looks like the main menu, and the left side of the screen displays the title screen of the game. The sprite moves to the right until the whole title screen is displayed. Then the game loads.
Hey, I just published a fix for this! Enjoy!

A great collection of vaguely retro-sounding loops. Each track gives you a quick glimpse of what the game would be if it were real. Much like the source material, the whole collection feels steeped in mystery and really evokes the feeling of picking up a weird bootleg cartridge from a bargain bin.
Favorite Tracks: FOOTBALL, NINJA JR., VAMPIRES TOWN, GROON GROON R, LIZARD BOY, CHESS
Wow, the graphics and feel for this game are outstanding. This ran super slowly on my computer though, not sure why. I didn't really understand what all the controls were or how to play. It seems like one player is always in front, so how does he shoot the other player? An explanation of how to play beforehand would have been nice. But the graphics and audio are top notch. Great work!
