Space Cave Man 2: Red Planet Rising

Defend Against the Martian Invaders!!!

I adapted a Favicon Game Jam entry for A Game By Its Cover Jam 2024. The original concept is by game artist Seth Kumpf. Loved the imagery of a cave man in space fighting UFOs. The description attached to the cover:

After saving the galaxy, Genshi took a much needed rest, that is until he came across a blast from the past! Martians are invading Earth 65 million years ago in order to wipe out the dinosaurs! Can Genshi and Maia stop the Red Planet Rising!?

I also adapted music by Robby Duguay from his “Nine Songs in Pico-8” cart.

The code will be up on GitHub.
