    Honestly, this is still one of my favorite games I have ever made. Made for the weekly game jam 124 'Fruit Ball.'  My take on this theme was to make a space invaders like game with the boss looming in the background, every time you miss a shot, you knock extra enemies off of the boss. Knock enough off and you proceed to the next phase of the fight.

    This game preformed the worst of all the game jam submissions I've done. I believe I even posted it to Kongregate when they still allowed user submissions. I don't think I got any plays on this one. Bit of a shame. The art style definitely leave something to be desired. That, combined with a bad game icon probably turned a lot of people away from giving it a shot.

    This was my first Web release game on itch.io, There was one web game I did prior to this that I believe to be lost. I spent a lot of time working on the boss phases for this one, including making the music blend from phase to phase, getting more intense as you go along. I also came up with a few different AI for the fruit enemies. All in all, this one was a great learning experience that I would have loved to see critic on.
