The Hall
Level One, So Far
In the manner of the Apple II, 1984: 280 by 192 in six colours. One press walks and another runs, and he keeps going. Somersault, climb, throw a sword that comes back, and never mind the drop. The belfry is built; the rest of the hall is coming.

Cannonball Blitz
The 2nd Coming
A tribute to the Apple II game of 1982, all new. Three screens. The hill has no ladders: stand on the low end of a seesaw and let a cannonball send you up a floor. In the keep, pull the eight pins and bring the tower down. On the lifts, leave by balloon.

Light the Factory
Switch on every lamp on the floor by walking over it, and jump the sparks that pace it. Platforms that slide from under you, ropes, springs, bombs, magnets and moving stairs. Then build a floor of your own and send it to a friend as a link.
