  • Local high scores leaderboard.
  • Optimized to be used in arcade cabinet machines.
  • Lots and lots of explosions!
  • Vertical screen with beautiful bezels to fill the void.
  • 16 color palette. - Pixel perfect scaling.
  • CRT filter.
  • Attract mode (just like in the old arcade machines).

Okay educate me. What is an attract mode?


It’s when you let a game idle on the “start” screen and it shows some gameplay / auto play.


I believe it might be the game(play) demo you get to see while you're spending time on the title screen.


O haha you already answered the question ^-^

I don’t know why, but growing up my brothers and I called it “mode”. Don’t know where we got that.

Thanks guys. This clearly was on my radar and already in my wishlist, knowing that it has a "mode" makes it even better ;)
