Miner Man
(2011)
Story
"Play through 60
levels of puzzles, mazes and
traps. Each level will present the player with different amount of gems
to collect. To collect the gems the player will have to work through
the levels avoiding the traps and solving the puzzles." (taken from the
original game)
Feedback
No feedback as
yet - just released.
Notes
Possibly for the
first time in history, a ZX81 conversion of an Xbox 360 game - two
machines separated by 25 years. Admittedly it doesn't have
all 60
of the original levels, some of the in-game features, any sound, colour
graphics, and all the
rest, but it does take over 1100 times less memory to run!
More details on
the original game can be found at the Electric Wolf website - http://www.electricwolf.co.uk/ - which also contains a link to the Xbox
marketplace where you can download the demo or full version of the game.
Although
the game may look similar to Boulder Logic released earlier in the
year, and indeed that supplied the starting code-base, the game logic
is very different - the boulders don't fall under gravity, but instead
roll in a preset compass direction - changing the game from an
against-the-clock arcade game into a crafty puzzler.
