  Pretty good until Room 14. As far as I can tell, you have to rely on luck here to get past the laser beam... the duration of the beam, and the time between beams seem to be completely random. At least you get a level code when you beat it...

  Nice platformer once you get used to the leg when turning. Completable too easily once you learn the game. Restart codes FRANK FANDA NORBI ZOOOM (type in game) Press esc for pause as Ollie is falling off for strange sound effects!

  Not a very good game, although it isn't terrible. I've played most of Frank Cohen's game, none of them are very good. Player control in particular is very poor. Yes, Mr. Robot is far better.

  A blatant rip-off of Mr Robot & His Robot factory but still a superior platformer which didn't get the recognistion it deserved.
