A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

This game is part of the Micro Entertainment Pack, a collection of tiny desktop games I developed for fun.

Place bombs to destroy soft blocks and kill enemies, while avoiding getting hit by your own explosions or by enemies. Control movement with arrow keys or WASD. Place a bomb with E or Z. Detonate all bombs (if you have the Remote powerup), or stop all bombs in motion (if you have the Kick powerup) with X or Q.

  • Classic Bomberman gameplay, with levels of increasing difficulty, and a range of powerups and enemies.
  • Classic power ups: in addition to  power ups for movement speed, lives, blast radius and number of bombs, we also have powerups for (temporary) invulnerability,  the ability to remotely detonate bombs, the ability to kick bombs across the map, and the ability to pass through soft blocks without destroying them first..
  • Wide range of enemies: Mice tend to run in the same direction as long as they can. Cats will actively try to pursue the player. Cylons move quickly and randomly. Ghosts move randomly and can pass through soft blocks. Mega-cylons will seek out the player, and will survive one bomb blast. Be careful: they become enraged if bombed, making them move faster!
  • Tiny, unobtrusive graphics and Micro Mode - The game only occupies a fraction of your screen real estate, and can even be displayed in half size on high DPI displays, making it perfect for discreetly playing at work or while watching something on your computer.

Currently I prioritise mac binaries, as that's the only platform I play these games on, but am also building for other platforms. They are written in Rust and have a dependency on C libraries SDL2 and SDL_gfx.

Is there plans to make a multiplayer mode for this game?

None at the moment. With the exception of Battleship (All Hands) and Micro Chess, which have hot-seat multiplayer, all the micro entertainment games are single player. It would be a fun thing to add someday!

Hi! Thank you very much for these cool games, I really enjoy them. Could you build this one for Linux as well?

Hi there! I'm afraid Linux binary distribution is such a mess that I can't get a reliable cross compiler set up for my Mac anymore. Basically, I could build a binary that executes on my Linux machine, but the chances that it would work on anyone else's machine is a tossup, depending on specific versions and locations of libraries etc. If you are familiar with the terminal etc., you can build a version for your specific distribution from the source code on GitHub if you install a rust compiler, cargo, and SDL. 

Thank you for your answer! I can understand that it is quite a messy thing to compile different versions. I may try it some time. Best wishes!
