miketron, nbmiketron โ€” bestie, it's a game, it's in section 6, and it's literally called miketron(6) ๐Ÿ’–


๐ŸŽฎ CONTROLS ๐ŸŽฎ

okay so the whole vibe here is tiny keyboard, big consequences, and the controls are giving minimalism on purpose:

  • hjkl / ARROW KEYS โ€” change direction. that's it. that's the whole movement system. go wherever your heart says, as long as your heart says one of four directions ๐Ÿ’…
  • q โ€” quit. just q. one key. no :q!, no Ctrl-C, no dramatic exit. she's efficient ๐Ÿซถ
  • F1 & F2 โ€” help on controls & gameplay. yes, both of them. hit either one when you're lost, no shame in it, we've all been there ๐Ÿ˜ญ

๐ŸŒธ GAMEPLAY ๐ŸŒธ

so here's the tea. you're steering a strange vehicle โ€” and when I say strange I mean strange โ€” that can somehow survive explosions. like, explosions cannot end you. that's not the problem. that's never the problem โœจ

the problem is the trail. the trail it has left behind. because you cannot cross your own trail. not even a little. not even one pixel of it. that's the whole game, that's the whole trap, and honestly? it's giving main character energy with a tragic backstory ๐Ÿฆ‹

so the mission is simple: keep it running as much as you can. that's the goal. that's the entire goal. run long, run far, do not loop back into your own history, no cap ๐Ÿ”ฅ

lowkey a metaphor. highkey a metaphor. either way, don't cross the trail ๐Ÿ’€

and for the record, this whole thing is plagiarized from MikeOS. yes, actually, that's canon, it's right there in the page, I'm not making it up ๐ŸŽ€


that's the whole page, bestie โ€” this one's from May 2021, brought to you by the fine folks behind MIKETRON() ๐ŸŽ€๐Ÿ’œ go forth and don't cross your own trail, iykyk ๐ŸŒˆโญ
