I made a game in Blender when it had the game engine built in. It worked great for a while. Then, when I updated to Windows 8.1 from 7, it stopped working entirely. Then, it started working again with Windows 10, but the colors were all messed up. And inexplicably, it works like new again. It's 4:3 ratio because that's what my monitor was at the time. Holy moly that was longer ago than I thought...

You shoot toxic waste at the sun by pressing space. You dodge it (you are the sun) with WASD. If the toxic waste collides, you get points. Risk-reward kinda thing. The more you press space, the more toxic waste is flying around, the more collisions, but harder to dodge.

There are three rounds that are exactly as long as the songs I chose as background music that I wrote years before I made the game. Haha!

There's an awesome secret level that I probably should have made easier to get to. Just play through the game and don't press space. Haha!

The Blender Game Engine was how I got my start making games! Were you active on the blenderartists forums back then?

Here's the best game I made in Blender (like 14 years ago)

Your game looks cool! I vaguely remember getting help from the Blenderartists forums, but I wouldn't say I was active.
