Robotron
Robotron
My Pico-8 version of the 1982 Williams arcade classic.
Controls
To play with a twin-stick controller in the browser head to https:pahammond.itch.iorobotron
Supports 4 control methods:
Twin Stick
If you have an Xbox or similar controller connected, this is THE way to play (will not work unless playing via my itch.io page)
Keyboard controls are swapped. Arrow keys fire, S F E D move
Twin Stick (Swapped)
Arrow keys to move, S F E D to fire
Auto-Fire
Llamatron style controls. Fires in direction of movement but hold X to move without changing the fire direction
Auto-Fire (Lynx)
Based on the Atari Lynx control system. Z and X rotate direction of fire
