Hipstercade

A philosophical journey through the existential void of modern life... with pixels.

Hipstercade explores life's greatest questions - mainly about patience and the crushing weight of routine. Experience the beautiful meaninglessness of contemporary existence: act, repeat, question your choices, repeat again. Get inspired by quotes from history's most celebrated free-thinkers. Unlock hidden hipster artifacts that validate your superior taste.

Hipstercade is so authentically underground, you've probably never heard of it. This game is essential for every aspiring hipster - though the truly enlightened ones have obviously been playing it ironically since before you even considered growing that moustache.

Featuring original retro aesthetics from the golden age of 8-bit gaming, served with the perfect amount of sarcasm and existential dread. Success requires patience, a steady hand, quick reflexes, and most importantly, a deep understanding of the complex hipster psyche.

Features

• Crisp pixelated graphics straight from the 1980s (because low-fi is high art)
• Quotes by legendary free-thinkers to fuel your intellectual superiority
• "Unique" levels (air quotes intentional)
• Chiptune soundtrack that sounds better on vinyl
• Authentic C64 experience for maximum nostalgia points
• Handcoded in 6502 assembly using ACME assembler and Visual Studio Code

Warning: May cause uncontrollable urge to explain why mainstream games are overrated.

Compatible with Commodore 64 - the only computer that truly understood artistry. While the game is playable on VICE or similar emulators, true hipsters will naturally prefer the authentic cassette tape experience. Sound files and cover art are available for download - because nothing says "artistically superior" like waiting 10 minutes for a game to load.
