Robo Flip is A pixel arcade game where you use gravity to crush enemies and protect your creator’s lab.
Based on Williams Electronics 1982 arcade machine Joust, Robo Flip is a pixel arcade platformer set in a dystopian Scifi future. You play as a small robot defending their creators laboratory from evil invaders. Use gravity to gain the upper hand, landing on your opponents to destroy them and collecting their batteries to keep them from coming back. Every movement matters and precision is your only ally.
"Robo Flip" was my first project in a rapid prototyping class, where we had to remake a pre-1985 arcade game with a twist. I worked as the engineer on this Unity-based game, handling the player’s movement and game logic. The movement was especially tricky due to the complex system of the original Joust character.
