Love the interesting level design. I've played a few games but not completed it yet.
Really liked the 3 robot visualisation as you lose each life (which i did many times). Great graphics and fun to play movement, especially timing the jumps. Superb in such a short time, and inspirational as with the other entires. Well done to all.
An excellent game with superb atmosphere! I love the main character animation - reminds me of Walker on the Amiga. Starting from the beginning when you die is a tough call, but that's what I'd call 'The Spectrum Spirit'!
I completed it, but there was no way to restart afterwards?
Very nicely done!
Superb, I'd say your best one yet, the character animation is great, nice fast movement, precise jumps, love the theme, especially as a fan of the inspiration. If it was loaded from tape not being able to restart could be annoying but with instant loads it's actually a really nice thing that matches the game idea. I've not finished it yet.
Plays nicely, very fast and frantic. Quite harsh that you go back to the start each time you die.
BUG? When you die-die, i.e. lose all lives, there doesn't seem to be a way to restart.
