Hi guys! Boing Boing has a neat contest going on at
http://boingboing.net/arcade/ where people made video games based on chiptune music. I strongly encourage you all to check out the games listed there and vote in the poll at the bottom for the one you think is the best. Though I should mention that
my game is called Gobber Assault and happens to be written in LÖVE.

Yeah, the game gets pretty broken once you get far enough along.
The sound gets broken too, once you go fast enough love.audio just can't handle speeding things up that much.

@User_Avatar:
no, I mean the game consumes me, I assumed you spent a lot of time playing it yourself?

This game is awesome. I voted.
As a new LOVE person, I would also be interested to know a bit more about how it was made.

If you mean that the source code is interesting to you: you can unzip the .love file and take a look
If you wonder about how it was assembled, I think all the info about art/asset sources is on the
game's homepage and in a readme in the .love (not 100% sure about the latter).

Yep. The readme is also readable online (there's a link on the game's page).
Thanks for voting!

Awesome graphics, how did you make it so your images don't come out all blurry after scaling? Whenever I try to draw an 8x8px image with 4x scale it becomes all blurry in love ;-;
