# Rinna's Games

## Kill Rock 'n' Roll

For the Summer 2023 edition of the 2-week-long [My First Game Jam][My
First Game Jam]{title="My First Game Jam Summer 2023"}, I made a
game about an electronic musician using their synthesized music to
kill rock & roll.
It's kind of a platformer where you try to get past rock-music themed
enemies (power chords, eletric basslines, guitar solos, etc.) by moving
along and shifting between various wave-forms.
You can play [Kill Rock 'n' Roll][krnr]{title="Kill Rock 'n' Roll"}
on itch. [][@:Rinna]{.sig}

Was the inversion of _No Straight Roads_{as="cite"} deliberate?

no i don't play video games (lie; but i had not heard of that game
before). [][@:Rinna]{.sig}

it is LITERALLY your premise backwards

booooorrrrriiiiiinnnnggg (jk).
i hope they have better music than me and got people to play actual
guitars for the rock music instead of using random built-in presets in
LMMS.
btw the current build has a tutorial level with actual instructions.
you should totally give it a try :3c
it works in browser even. [][@:Rinna]{.sig}

Update (2023 august 5): now it has background music and the rock music
enemies are recordings of people playing actual guitars and basses
(thanks to [][Freesound]{title="Freesound"}).
Also I've released version 1.0 and it's somewhat prettier.

i managed to crash the game by dying.
i find it rather unnerving to keep with with the mechanics (this is
  not a complaint)

## Poltergeist

[Poltergeist][Poltergeist] is a chill Breakout variant where you can go
into ghost mode to pass through bricks to get to a better position.
It also lets you make your own levels if you want.
