About Pyramaze: The Game

Pyramaze: The Game is a 2D hack and slash platformer.

The Game was created to honor the great music from Pyramaze the Progressive-Power-Metal-Band.
You can choose a character out of 5 bandmembers to fight your way through
evil foes taken from the Pyramaze-Lore like Ghosts, Will-o'-the-wisp or the Phoenix.

Play as Jacob to use his Guitar-Magic-Staff to summon Fire, Ice and Thunder or Teleport through the enemies
Play as Jonah to use his Keytar-Blade to Strike and Slash through the enemy-hordes
Play as Morten to use his Drumstick-Spear to fill the screen with mighty water attacks
Play as Terje to use his Microphone-Hammer to create powerfull schockwaves
Play as Toke to use his Guitar-Axe to burn the Evil with his Fire abilities.

Move your character to the right of the screen and defeat as many enemies as you can to get Pyrapoints.
If you reach the far right of a map you will transition to the next map.
There are a total of 6 stages and 2 Bosses, every Stage gives you a timer of 300 seconds. You take to long? You lose!
Your goal is to get the most Pyrapoints to be in the Top 10 Highscore-List. Every Time you die or defeat the final Boss
you will be able to submit your Highscore to compare yourself with other players.
It might be a good Idea to not just rush through the stages. Collect every Gold Coin, they will grant you a lot
Pyrapoints. If your health is low search for the green Coins, they heal 1 Point of your healthbar.

The Menu is controlled by mouse and Left-Click. We suggest you check out the "How To Play" - Section in the Home-Menu.

Controls for every Character:
Movement - Arrow Key left or right to move and Arrow Key up to jump
S - Shield Attack
D - Anti Air Attack
F - Forward Attack

Special Controls for Jonah and Jacob:
Teleport to the Left with "W" and to the right with "E"

Special Controls for Toke and Terje:
F - Forward Attack (Any Time without cooldown + usable in air)

✦ AI summary

Pyramaze: The Game suffers from poor execution as a platformer/brawler/shooter hybrid with clumsy mechanics and uninspired gameplay that fails to stand out among the crowded retro platformer landscape. Players criticize the awful graphics, lack of redeeming features, and its apparent focus on being a metal band advertisement rather than delivering solid game design. The consensus suggests this is a title to avoid, particularly given the abundance of better platformers available.

Pyramaze: The Game is one of literally thousands of retro 2D platformers infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere... and I'm not kidding. Searching for "platformers" on the Steam store page yields over 17,000 results! Is this one of the best of those? Absolutely not. Certainly one of the worst platformers ever made, but on the up side, it's not pixelcrap. On the downside, the graphics are still awful. This is a basic platformer/brawler/shooter with no redeeming features or interest or value as a serious game, so it's no surprise it was a failure. Platforming is an old, mostly dead genre, and this lacklustre experience, while it doesn't have an upfront cost, isn't saving the genre... it's no surprise this failed to capture any attention from gamers in the era of immersive 3D gaming. In terms of visuals, this features really godawful MS-Paint tier "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of th…

Sorry, but this game only felt like a metal band advertisement with clumsy gameplay mechanics. And by the way: a metal band and only one long haired dude? Nah... no thanks.

Игра 'Pyramaze: The Game' - это захватывающая головоломка, сочетающая в себе элементы стратегии и логического мышления. Визуально игра выполнена в минималистичном, но приятном глазу стиле, что позволяет сосредоточиться на самом геймплее. Суть заключается в перемещении блоков по лабиринту, чтобы создать путь для шара к выходу. Уровни становятся все сложнее по мере прохождения, требуя все большего планирования и нестандартных решений. Иногда приходится возвращаться к началу уровня и переосмысливать свой подход. Это может показаться сложным, но именно это делает игру такой увлекательной. Управление интуитивно понятное, что облегчает погружение в процесс. Однако, игра не прощает ошибок, и каждое неверное движение может привести к провалу. Разнообразие блоков и их уникальные свойства добавляют глубины геймплею. В целом, 'Pyramaze: The Game' - это отличный выбор для любителей головоломок, которые ищут испытание для своего ума. Рекомендую всем, кто хочет проверить свою сообразительность и провести время с пользой. Небольшая цена делает ее еще более привлекательной.
