Fun game, good luck with the contest. I went with the NeoFlash version because I liked the splash screen better.

While I don't expect you to change the game on my account, I was curious as to how you came to decide that the ship should turn first before moving. I mean, in physical terms, it obviously makes more sense, but it kind of feels like it's slowing the game down. Not so much that it isn't enjoyable, though. I've played a game with the exact same premise somewhere else, but I can't think where now ... possibly on Game Boy. I know you had to hit a button to switch between "ship" and "block" (but those weren't the icons, obviously), but besides that, same thing. Now I want to know what that game was.

I'll keep playing while I try to remember.

Vague Rant, original concept on AMSTRAD CPC computer "Le Tout Rikiki, Maousse Costo" published in Amstrad 100% (Number 42 - February / March 1992 and Number 43 - April / May 1992) with only 21 levels.

Original Picture of the Game

For the SHIP, if a old game using the same system for the ship, I've never seen, really sorry.


SOLUTION of LEVEL 1

SQUARE : Right, Down
SHIP : Right, Up (Star 1)
SQUARE : Up, Left
SHIP : Down, Left, Up (Star 2), Down (Star 3)

This is a pretty good game, but I've just played a while

Graphics are really good though

But I'm not a fan of graphics that fill both screen but don't take the gap into consideration

 

[Kukulcan]

it's my choice

I'm prefere full picture with no rupture
