I used to play Joust with my little brother on the BBC Micro many moons ago and have fond memories of it. So when I was experimenting with Claude Opus 5 it was a nice inspiration for this game.
Did a little research and found there aren't many games out there that just work in a browser without ads, loading screens or account sign-ups. So I've put this directly on the landing page with no noise in the way - it works on any browser on any device and loads instantly.
If it doesn't work at all, please tell me. And also let me know if you think it needs music - I went without it to begin with but don't know if that's what people would prefer or not.
Would also love to know how far you get, my personal best is 199,000.
Thanks for your interest!
