Sliding Blaster
A downloadable game
Big City Sliding Blaster is an NES homebrew game that takes inspiration from an old shareware game called Ballmaster. Sliding Blaster is a top-down shooter where you can shoot in all directions, but the twist is that you're continually sliding through the level. You cannot stop moving, you can only boost toward a different direction, which will cause you to start moving in that direction instead. There's limited ammo and you have to continually collect it.
- This game is open source
- Two players support - second player can join in any time
- Simple level editor in the game
- Supports the SNES mouse, if you plug one in with an adapter

Install instructions
You'll need an NES emulator to run this - I recommend https://mesen.ca/. FCEUX is another option that I know of that supports the SNES mouse.
