Shoot, slash, and parry through four intense levels!

Listen to arrangements of Iron Maiden songs in the style of 90's arcade soundchips, from the band's legendary classics to obscure gems!

Fight challenging bosses with movesets inspired by the classic games of the Disney Afternoon!

Fill your Super Meter and use Super Moves to summon Eddie and turn the tide of battle, but be careful: your enemies have Super Moves, too.

So, do you have what it takes to overcome your FEAR OF THE DUCK?

Educational Materials

A public GitHub repository containing selected code samples and the FamiTracker module (used to arrange the game's music) is included for educational purposes so that those who are curious may learn the inner workings of the game's code as well as its music. Playing the game and reading the code samples go hand-in-hand, as the game provides implicit context as to how those pieces of code make the game function properly. Please note that the FTM file, the FamiTracker module, does not contain the drum samples used in the game, as they are from the "99 Sounds" source seen above.
