Default keys are nasty :p

When picking Sinclair it's still N to jump 9 doesn't work? Oh and pressing 9 and fire at the same time makes the bullet come out at your head and not go anywhere. It just hangs in mid air, not that you actually need to press up and fire simultaneously but I thought I'd mention that :D

Timmy

Oh, nice! This is certainly one of those, "guess what you should do with your egg" game?

Spoiler:

I just figured it out randomly by pressing "s" (or a joystick direction, if you use a joystick) everywhere to see what should happen.

Spoiler:

Try it at the room next to the starting room, with an egg obviously.

:)

Ralf

Yes, the controls spoil it all.

N for jump with joystick control? Why? Why can't it be just going up?
Maybe there is a chance of fixing that?

Yerzmyey

Hmm, it would be really good if it had normal controls.
Niiiice.

I can?t edit first post, sorry.

dm_boozefreek

Ah yes! :D

That's much better! Thank you very much indeed! :)

Ralf

Much better.

It's really playable now, at least for a while.
I just wonder if it won't become tiresome to walk forth and back the same way (or maybe not the same because becoming longer each time) several times carrying the eggs.

Crikey middle age must be setting in, I've had this for 24h & not hacked it yet! Seriously good game, well done, and thanks.

Morkin

You can tell it's Churrera, as soon as you pick up an object..! :razz:

I didn't actually think the keys were that bad. Not a bad game, I got caught out initially as well, wondering what to do with the eggs... Movement and controls feel nice.

One minor thing is that I wasn't too keen on the enemies re-spawning when you re-enter a screen. I found it quite easy to jump into the screen above, miss the platform and immediately fall back down to the bottom of the screen below, and have to repeatedly deal with all the enemies on that screen again, which got a bit tedious. But to be fair there are only a few places that it happened.

Yerzmyey

Yyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeah, now it's great!!!
An excellent game!

Thanks! :)

Going back trying to make sure I have all the games from the last few years, as I've put a lot in random folders in my old Pc and can't find them...

But I'm finding lots of broken links! Makes the need for the Archive to be sorted out seem even more important than I already thought.... :-SS

Timmy

I have finally completed this game today, using a map and a poke.

This was certainly quite fun. :)
