Sanchez has received a letter from his girlfriend Sarah. It says she's got a surprise for him at the castle on Isle Pokuh. He arrives at the castle but a cloaked man is blocking the way. The stranger wants 15 coins to let Sanchez enter the castle. Now Sanchez must gather coins around the island to meet his girlfriend in the castle, where a surprise indeed awaits...

If all you care about are low res wannabe SNES games, then look somewhere else. But if you would try a game with its own style, you mustn't miss this one.

-Powerups are back! Dig for treasure and throw boxes
-Visit the magician's hut to get hints on finding hard to get coins
-Parallax backgrounds (can be disabled)
-Module music remixes by DaVince
-Joshua Mononoetoe as the voice of Sanchez
-Records corner, see your best completion time and your total playtime, along with online time submission
-Automatic pause when game is interrupted, (for example by chat messages)
-In game music volume control (doesn't affect windows volume control, unlike other games that have attempted it)
-Optional fullscreen mode

I'd advice reading the help section before playing, but I'm not your mom.

A game by Phredreeke and Nikodemus. Thanks to DaVince and TenguSoft for hosting.

MIDIs? Where? I'm sure I converted them to modules...

Nice game.

The Nirvana midis were awesome. The movement was a little out of wack, but I enjoyed it. Had a different feel to it, enjoyed the graphics too.

As DaVince say, they're not midis

They are modules (which don't cause the annoying pause whenever a song starts or loops)

Anyone beat it yet?

Lady Neptune: Err... Kind of. The original SS4 was canned because while we had big plans, very little work actually got done on it (the disadvantage of working in a team without clearly defined roles), except for graphics, which Nastyman made lots of.

Compare this to Commander Keen: it's the part before 4, but after 3. 3.5

Here's some (hopefully) constructive criticism:
-The animations are awful and the window is too small compared to the huge characters sprites.
- I love Nirvana but I really think you should get rid of the midis, mods or whatever they are.
-Some graphics have bold outlines, others don't have at all.

Other than that nice game.

I wonder why she would ask that

In case anyone here can't beat the game, there are a couple of cheats, PM me if you want them.

I think this game was kind of lame...

The music felt misplaced. It was nothing like adventure or piratey music, which would have suited this game much better.

The controls did not feel good, the player should not have deacceleration time and the jumps felt slow and powerless.

The collision between the character and dangerous stuff felt very abstract, you could actually walk into many of them without getting hurt...

The story was not very thrilling...

The voice acting and the hint giving lady were however interesting and fun features, even though I don't like that you included Hitler with that kind of joke...

The graphics were great, but the animations sucked. I mean, at least make him move in some way when he is digging! And what about that walking? Seems like you put about zero time on the animations in this game...

I'm sorry, I think this was a over all bad game. Solid engine though...

About the music, I just couldn't be bothered to make original music for it.

i agree with zezard but the grpahics arent really great. they're mspaint anime and everything is made so big that theres no room on the screen for things like the platform youre trying to jump to. theres not really any clear distinction between background objects that are obstacles and ones that are decoration.

Posted by Zezard

Original music is not required. It's just that I appriciate when the music fit into the game. I think that music somehow should describe the other things that you experience in the game.

H'm, "first for a click game" for the auto-pause... that's a rather bold claim, don't you think?

H'm, "first for a click game" for the auto-pause... that's a rather bold claim, don't you think?

Show me a click game made before that has it, and I'll remove the "first for a click game" from the description. AFAIK it is the first.

Well, does it need to be a finished game?
I've had such a feature in "Nothing" for more than a year, now.

Posted by DaVince

7th August, 2007

"they're mspaint anime"
LOL WUT
ANIME?

Phred, I told you that feature was too minor to sum up with the rest?

other than the graphics, this game is okay at best. no room to see, not a great movement engine. graphics need work though

Posted by Phredreeke

8th August, 2007

Fifth: There, I removed it from the description now. I never played your game before.

JFrudy: Well, it's better than the games you didn't submit mr. Avatarless

DaVince: Why aren't you on msn anymore?

Sorry but I will have to agree with what Zezard said.
Perhaps you should also add a popup box to confirm exit if someone accidently press esc while in game...I had like 9 coins and it reset.

@ phreddy,
no, its not better than the games i didnt submit
because its sure as hell not good =o!

Big words coming from someone who haven't submitted any games of their own

Man the votes on this are rocketing up...

Phreddy: since when do you need to be able to create a game to criticise a game? Though it helps immensely, it doesn't mean that the person might not know what he's talking about.

AfterStarX: popup boxes are a bad, bad idea. At least, using Windows ones.
