XdN Shooter mini

I just finished putting together a game in PICO-8.

Well, the game's not finished, yet, but it is in a "good enough" state that I feel that I can share it. It plays a bit like Space Invaders or Galaga.
I drew the graphics and created most of the sounds. The music is converted from other video games and may be familiar to some.

 

You can play it online (in your browser) or you can download it to play on PICO-8 or using the fake08 core in RetroArch on actual game hardware. My wife and I have been playing it on the RG35XX handheld.

some site cleaning

I just went through and tried to fix some 404 errors and missing images, as well as enable improved page caching. Nothing major.

hide macOS menu bar icons

Annoyed by too many icons or the spacing of them on the Menu Bar in macOS? Here are a few programs that can help keep them under control.

Hidden Bar, Free

Dozer, Free & Open Source

Vanilla, $10 for Pro

Bartender, $15

The first three work similar to each other, with a basic "collapse" feature to hide icons. Bartender stands out with a bit more features, including its own bar for icons that can be displayed under the menu bar. Great for when you have a lot of icons on a new MacBook Pro that has a notch.
