Nice implementation.
tough, but cool mechanics, good job :)
pretty good! (:
At first i read MARIO miner, but N makes the difference.
The spike above the key in the first level got me around 10 times in succession. >:( But this probably fits these kind of games. Atleast it wasnt another I wanna be the guy :)
Also it was fun finding out what these platforms actually do, instead of having a tutorial. Modern games should do this more often.
I can't exactly fault an Atari platformer from 1981 for not having checkpoints or confusing graphics. So... all the frustrating aspects of the game can be chalked up to realism, and they're not enough to detract from the difficulty.
So... very fun.
It's amazing how you catch the original gameplay and pace! The best entry from my point of view.
