First levels include only basic elements, but on later levels you'll get access to variety of special elements and tools (like Teleports and Disintegrators)! Each new gameplay feature is introduced every 10-15 levels, so you'll have time to get familiar with it. Lots of in-game hints and tips will help you to learn how to play easily and quickly. Just point the cursor over any element and right-click on it and you'll get all details on how to use it! Even if you completely stuck on

]]> 06 Feb 2007 07:49:36 Kastle Kumquat Kastle Kumquat has always been a long standing favourite of mine from the Amiga days and for the 2006 Retro Remakes competition i helped develop this remake with my skilled partner (the code guru) Edgar M Vigdal. The gfx are by me, the sounds are by me (including the grunts and oofs) and we got some very nice music made for us by the talented "infamous". The tough part is all by Edgar though, without him these games wouldn't happen.

Collect fruits, find keys, press switches and open doors to make your way through the kastle. Dodge the twizzly boxes of doom, jump the lava and watch out for the traps. The remake did ok in the competition but the game turned out as great as i hoped. Its a joy to play, in fact only yesterday i played it through once again.

We are now working on a version which includes the room editor for a collaborative project. A whole new set of user made rooms with some new twists and traps. Hopefully that'll be underway soon.
