About the system

There was a time before the videogame crash of 1983 where the Colecovision was king. Not only did they have a console that was ahead of the competition, they had all the dream developers on board: Sega, Nintendo and Konami to name a few.

The Colecovision is essentially a stripped MSX1 with cartridge slot, 32kb rom and 1kb ram. So games written for the colecovision could easily ported to the MSX, but the other way around proves to be more difficult (but is certainly possible as well).

I had been developing smaller demos and game prototypes since 2006, but it took until 2011 for the release of my first game Astrododge.

Shifted (2014)

How long can you keep shifting?

Shifted is an action puzzle game that requires quick thinking and quick responses. You have to shift columns up and down to make combinations of gems on the centre row.

The higher the combination, the more points you will earn.

How long can you keep shifting?
