ParaGopher is a retro-style arcade game written in Go using Ebitengine. Inspired by the classic Paratrooper IBM PC game (1982), the game allows the player to control a turret that must defend the base against incoming paratroopers. Tilt the turret, shoot down threats, and prevent paratroopers from reaching your base!
