Team: Joseph Henry Stadolnik IV
Tools: PICO-8

I made the entirety of this game by myself.
My achievements on this project included:
- Designing three unique shmup boss fights drawing inspiration from specific tarot cards.
- Drawing all visual assets and effects using PICO-8's editor.
About:
This game was made in 48 hours for the WPI B-Term 2017 Jam.
The jam theme was to choose three specific tarot cards and design a game based off of them.
Other Notes:
I ran out of time to make audio for the game during the jam.
