The Wizard - Story Unknown
by on (#157581)
Hi all,

Here is the game for NES: The Wizard - Story Unknown. The game won first place in RETROKOMP GAMEDEV COMPETITION 2015 in Gdansk (Poland) (http://retrokomp.org).
Game is tribute for classic platformers from 80 years: no continue, no passwords, no renewal of life in the style of Call of Duty, jumping deducted in pixels, no forgiveness players error... one life for the whole game! Difficult but not frustratingly.

THIS IS NOT A FINAL VERSION!!! We work to fix bugs and add more features. Cartridge in cheap version was VERY POSSIBLE.

PS: Sorry for my fatal english :)

Yeah hero is like as this from Fire n' Ice (it was modeled on this - is very similar but this is not a rip). Graphics will be changed in many aspects in future - hero probably also. As i write - this is not final version. This version was develop by one person (only music has been added at the "last minute" before compo). Several people have joined the team after the competition and now is time to upgrade game.
