Flightmare (Game 1984)
YouTube video by Let's Play With Brigands Flightmare (Game 1984)

Here's some video if you haven't heard of this obscure freeware game from 1984:

Keep tinkering with this Flightmare remake... The road smears were an important part of the game.

I also added some riders to deliver quotes from the original

This weekend I started on something I've wanted to build for a long time... inspired by a DOS game from the early 80s, and a little #akira

Anyone know the #retrogame?

I've been doing some experimentation with #lua and #love2d, really enjoying the old school simplicity

Here I've set up a shader that can do Mode 7 effects, chasing that authentic #snes look

Probably been about 15 years since I played either one, the second one was a great update to the first and improved the controls quite a bit.

Amazing games, they are actually official titles in the Ghosts and Goblins franchise!

I played this game for a couple years before I found out it was released in Japan as "Castle Shikigami" or "Shikigami no Shiro" and has a cult following there
