Cardboard War! is a game inspired by Space war, Asteroids and the Atari 2600 Look-and-feel.

  • arrows: atari's joystick (movement) 
  • space: atari's button (shoot)
  • return/enter: reset

(the game includes 2 executables, a normal one and one designed for HiDPI devices (i don't own any HiDPI screen so it might not be big enough) )


Rivals:

  1. Soldier: Agressive but it cares about it's life.
  2. Kamizake: All or nothing, tries it's best to keep you close.
  3. Little Girl: preffers long distance combats.
  4. Snip: Preffers long, precise and accurate combat.

How to win: You have to fight against the machine, the first one to get 3 kills wins.
