About The Martians are Back!

Submission for the Js13kGames competition 2019 I always wanted to write a bubble shooter in the 99-balls-style, so I did that, and made it fit with the theme "back" afterwards. There are several versions of the game: Development version is on https://schnark.github.io/js13kgames-2019/game.html Minified version is on https://schnark.github.io/js13kgames-2019/min/index.html Official version submitted for the competition isn't available yet. Perhaps I will create a variant of this game as hybrid FFOS app/PWA, like my other apps.

The Martians are Back! was submitted to the js13kGames 2019 competition by Michael M.. It earned competition recognition. Like every js13k entry, the entire game — code, art, and audio — fits in 13 kilobytes, a constraint that rewards focused, clever design over bulk. This will probably live in a different repository.
