    All the information after the jump, the short versions is it's a procedural platformer with many of the mannerisms of good old Rick Dangerous.

    I'm the one that threw Rick Dangerous in there, honestly it's only similar to that in the theme and death count. He lists his inspirations as Spelunker, La Mulana, Balding's Quest, Aztec, Nethack, Indiana Jones and Cave Story. Which are all awesome.

    Damn, this game is really difficult, and i'm not the kind of player who get easily frustrated by difficulity, but woaw. It's really frustrating to die so easily and have to restart from the beggining, he could at least made some checkpoints (or give the possibility to have continues?) between the zones and i would be ok with it, because i feel i always do the same level :/.

    You can buy shortcuts to the different zones.
