About

Retro Mini

Read full description

Exclusively on Apple TV, play our minimalistic retro jam game. Inspired by arcade puzzle games, this was built in a game jam crunch where the challenge was to make a game in 32x32 pixels. We loved the way it turned out, so when we sat down with the Apple TV and a couple of game controllers, we decided itโ€™d be a fun game to release. Itโ€™s intentionally a mini game, but it has 3 different game modes, including a 2 player vs mode, and features some funky music from nosoapradio.us. Although it was intended for play with an MFi game controller accessory, there are two different control schemes for the remote too, so if you only have one controller you can still play the 2 player mode. We had a lot of fun taking this little jam and putting it on the big screen in our living room, so we hope youโ€™ll give it a shot and maybe get a kick out of it too.
