Wink’s never been this retro before!


Explore a lush post-apocalyptic world while using your laser powers to help a broken robot recover all its pieces. 9 worlds filled with levels, secrets, and a huge map to explore. Shoot enemies with your laser while collecting coins and mysterious ancient treasures like floppy disks and cassette tapes -- plus powerups that give you special abilities, like shooting left and right at the same time and transforming into a milkweed seed to float slowly to the ground​


Wink is taking inspiration from Gameboy classics like Super Mario Land 2 and Link’s Awakening, but doing its own little thing. It has been described as a “cross between Megaman and Kirby”. Regardless of the comparisons, Wink has its own personality and a crazy little world to explore all its own

Great

Really nice, looking forward to seeing it evolve!

maxoakland responds:

Thanks dude!

Nice graphics and gameplay. Got that Gameboy Color vibe to it

maxoakland responds:

Believe it or not, this is actually a gameboy color game. It's gonna have a real cartridge you can play on a real gameboy color/advance

Why the odd control scheme? Couldn't eve get past the first menu?

Edit: Apologies my dude. In my haste and ignorance I didn't read the tutorial properly and was possibly having issues on my PC's end that was causing me to have control issues. With that being said. This is really fun!

maxoakland responds:

What control scheme would you prefer?
