Bitsy (bitsy.org)

made a game in bitsy last summer, fun little engine. a little frustrating to do large works with lots of text or features

I played few on itch.io but it seems like most of these are more interactive poems/stories than games? Does anyone have any recs of some bitsies with more traditional game elements?

There are some lovely games made by Bitsy. They are both refreshing and retro at the same time.

BITSY MENTIONED they were pretty big back on cohost

it's possible I'm stating the obvious for this crowd, but if people like this, you will probably also appreciate Pico-8 [1]

The games are very nice. I love pixel art. Its really nice to see all these retro elements. Kinda looks like a arcade game.
