It was created by drummyfish, made with a special philosophy in mind. The game is made for entertainment, but also as a manifesto of certain philosophies and ideas, including suckless programming, extreme portability, anti-copyright, selflessness and anarcho-pacifism. The game is special by its properties, which include: - Extremely small size, the game can fit into , including all assets. - Very low hardware demands, being able to run on embedded CPUs. - No library dependencies – The game is written in pure C without any I/O, which is left for each platform's frontend to implement. - Implementation simplicity – no build system is needed, only a single file needs to be compiled. The whole source code has lines of code. - Extreme portability thanks to the above. Official ports exist for PC, browser and embedded consoles like Pokitto and Gamebuino Meta. - Made completely from scratch with only free software, including the engine and assets. - Completely public domain status, being released under CC0. The game is a "pseudo 3D" first person shooter, like Doom, and consists of 10 levels. The graphics uses a 256 color palette and is a little simpler than that of Doom, having e.g. no textures on floor and ceiling and using just 32x32 pixel images. The engine uses software rendering and 2D raycasting for rendering. There are multiple enemy types, weapons and items to pick up. Music is procedurally generated (utilizing so called bytebeat).
