This one is easily in my top 5. I love the graphics and game-play. It can seem cumbersome at times but mastering those mechanics can be very rewarding. 10/10 for me.

Great game, not so difficult with practice

Moving platforms are too small and too fast and have incorrect physics: There is no friction between the player and the platform so even if you manage to land on one, it slides out right from underneath you. This killed my enjoyment of the game, otherwise quite competent, responsive controls, nice animation, decent trial-and-error design of the traps. Would watch a playthrough.

This is a well designed game, and would be a lot more fun if it was'nt so FRIGGON HARD! It is a good patience builder, though.

One of my favorite platformers on the 8-bit Atari. It's exceptionally hard, though - you'll need all 11 of your lives!
