Cartridge the Tiger

Okay, I lied, I updated it. Here's what's new:

A new Second Quest with 10 exploration focused levels and 37 exits (the Main Story only had 10 exits).
A new Randomizer with 10 levels that procedurally generate a new layout every time you play them.
Over a two dozen new objects including collectables, blocks, enemies, scene-wide effects, and light probes.
Underwater levels, oceans of poison, black holes, bomb rain, lava, and even more secrets.
New options for old objects including guide support and better logic handling.
Massive performance improvements enabling 240-360fps with thousands of objects and dynamic lighting.
Hundreds of bug fixes and small visual improvements.
Level sharing servers are still offline (only prevents level sharing via code).
Keeping the price at $3.

Hi, I'm Bowser, a solo indie dev. I wanted to create something that exists somewhere between a game, a maker game, and a game engine, a toy box that can be enjoyed by casual players, skilled players, level designers, modders, rom hackers, and everyone in-between. Built from the ground up on a custom engine designed for level making and modding, with pixel perfect rendering, dynamic lighting, and a retro physics engine. Full game, not early access, no in-app purchases, no DLC, no AI, and I'm still updating it 2 years later.

Full controller support. Designed for cozy couch gaming. No mouse or keyboard needed.
