A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

A ZX-Spectrum inspired (but not strictly playing by the rules of) platformer about trying to figure out your way in a castle of sorts. Unfinished.

With this game I was trying to capture a feeling of bewilderment I had when I was a child. A feeling of not at all understanding how a video game works and just trying to get as far as possible in the game's world, to learn it and make it my own. A feeling of reading walkthroughs for games I never played and overanalyzing room names and patterns I saw over and over again because I wasn't very good at video games. I probably did not succeed with capturing this feeling though, since the game is not finished and never will be.

The game was too big for me to make, I dropped it, and now the feeling is gone, the world is different, I'm different, but the game is still there. At least a part of it.

So I decided to release it as is, as a tribute to unfulfilled dreams or something.

Also I think it's pretty fun for what is there, albeit maybe a bit difficult at times.
