Thanks! Maybe I should examine them for some inspiration of where to go with this πŸ˜„

Thanks! Hopefully we will both find out where this is going eventually πŸ˜…

I want to see them crawl all over the place. Beyond that, I don't know where I'm going with this yet πŸ˜…

Thanks! First, I would really like to see these "worms" crawling all over the place. It just might become a game eventually, but please don't ask me if/when/how/why/what 🀣

Creepy Crawly WIP on the Acorn Electron. Single screen buffer stress test. Decided to use MODE5 instead of MODE1 because I may need a second screen buffer later. This can easily run at 50fps but that just makes the sprite animations look weird

I see what you mean, but I don't think it will matter much? πŸ€”

That kind of bug is very annoying indeed, good luck hunting it down!

Lovely chunky sprites! Wasn't the Sinclair C5 in there as well? For some reason I also thought about these critters from Quest

Playing around with Aseprite sprite editor, or: how to give yourself the creeps with only a handful of pixels πŸ˜…

Idea for a sequel game: Duckulus, aka Chuckulus 2 but from the perspective of that nasty DUCK 🀣
