◆ Story ◆



This is a certain kingdom.
The jewel that contained the dragon was stolen by an evil swordsman.
Unleashing the dragon from the jewels, the swordsman gained immense power and hijacked the tower of the kingdom.
The king managed to escape, but the princess was captured.
The king sent many troops to the tower to retrieve the princess and the jewels, but none of them came back alive ...

As a last resort, I decided to entrust everything to the "apprentice swordsman," the descendant of the legendary swordsman who once contained the dragon in a jewel.
Many objected to sending the "apprentice swordsman" to the tower, but the king felt something.

Find the legendary equipment that the legendary swordsman once wore, and regain the jewels and princess.

The "apprentice swordsman" invaded through the hidden passage of the tower on a full moon night.

◆Game overview◆



The purpose is to collect the legendary equipment in the dragon tower and defeat the demon swordsman and dragon.
Also, a princess is captured somewhere in the tower.
The princess can clear the game without rescuing, but rescue is required for the true ending.

There are two types of attack methods, "dash attack" and "stomping".
  • Dash attack…Effective against all enemies, but also damages the player.
  • Stomping… (Attack that jumps and stomp the enemy's head) has some effects, and the player is not damaged.

When you get the item, it will be displayed in the upper right corner of the screen and will be equipped automatically.
When the life at the top left of the screen runs out, it will be respawned at the previous checkpoint (the position of the last coin picked up).
It is saved at the position where you picked up the FD (floppy disk), and you can select the area at the start of the game.

Here’s the deal - If you like 8-16 bit platformers that challenge you to get through without save files (there are save points, but only during your session of that specific day) If it was 5-10 bucks I’d probably recommend it - so since it’s only A buck… I think you’d have to be pretty dumb not to know what was coming next… actually there’s no way you could’ve known I was about to put a quick side note in, which is that I forgot to mention that for some reason this game looks and sounds specifically more like something sega master system, but if it had the graphical capabilities of the snes (the colors are really nice, the genesis couldn’t have pulled it off, and maybe even as nice as the 32 bit systems (I always forget that my brain remembers things as if they looked a generation further than they really did. anyway, the one negative thing I have to add (which is really nothing to do with the game) Is that I of course stumbled upon this by accident, even though I’m constantly searching for similar games, and even specifically using things like “pixel graphics” and “2D platformer” but all I ever see are the usual suspects (million unit sellers), but there’s no shady business - no “…
