Games run within a 160x160 pixel display with 4 colors, and can be built using any programming language that compiles to WebAssembly (including AssemblyScript, C, C++, D, Go, Nelua, Nim, Odin, Rust, WAT, and Zig). The platform supports instant online multiplayer with rollback netcode, making it an ideal platform for retro-style game development with modern technology.
