True Enemy is a FreeBASIC game created for the first annual DXC BASIC Jam. The theme of the jam was Truth, and the game is a tribute to classic Atari vector arcade games such as Asteroids and Tempest. Rotate your fighter with the right and left arrow keys or right and left on your joystick, and accelerate by pressing space, the up key, up on your stick, or just about any button. The binary available here is for 64-bit Microsoft Windows but the source is available so feel free to compile it for whatever and share it wherever.
