Submission Text Full Submission Page Publication Page
Here's a significant improvement for Dark Castle. The ending text appears 96 frames earlier. (Player input ends 53 frames earlier.) It's all due to a new technique for climbing stairs.
  • Plays at hardest level
  • Aims for fastest time
  • Abuses programming errors
The player is damaged twice by rats, but it has no meaning at all. I also manipulate luck (in room 1 for room 3), but it's barely noticeable.
The old screenshot is fine for it.
Truncated: Accepting as an improvement to a previous publication.

The main difference is that I climb stairs faster by pressing left-right-left-right-left-right...

The torrent filename is mispelled. It should be "darkcastle-tasv4-aqfaq.avi.torrent", not "darkcaste-tasv4-aqfaq.avi.torrent".

If it was a second longer I would have voted "Meh". Good job at destroying a bad game. ^_^
