Maze of Argus by hulahulahest
Prince Ryuutarou has been kidnapped by the many-eyed demon, Argus! Undaunted, Princess Suzuhime sets off into the demon's maze to free her beloved in this 80s home console style action adventure.
Well... I don't know how minimal this ended up, but I'm proud of it anyway. I wanted to evoke the feeling of those early NES games where there wasn't much in terms of plot or progression, but more or less the same gameplay for 80 levels in a row and your reward was just points.

There wasn't enough here to hold me past a few levels since I didn't see any new mechanics or twists developing but the polish here is very bright. You've done well.
I really liked the NES like graphics, but I missed some sfx. :(
Good job. :)
The game engine itself works but seems a bit weak : the game was running very slow on my netbook which is rather unusual for a retro plaformer.
The 8bit art & animation is really true to its model, which is rare... Great job!
