⭐ im back from the dead ⭐

ok before i start my writeup about the game itself, i just wanna clear the air; there are at least 4 different versions of this game that i could find, some by nicecode, some by waixing, im not sure where it originated exactly?? it may have even been an official game at some point. i’m just going to lump them into a single post because theyre all pretty much the same game

it’s a little arcade style game where u collect [coins/pellets/bells] and avoid the big slow [octopus/blue boy/fuckin weird lion crab thing] that can pass through walls, so he doesn’t [strangle you/force you to give him a bath] - as well as the small [stingray/blue thing/dragon] that goes faster but can be avoided on the higher ground accessed by staircases. 

this game should be fun- its such a simple idea that should equal simple quick fun.... but its so annoying to control. i dont know if all versions control as badly as the DreamGear one, i havent played them all yet and ill update this post if/when i do - but its SO hard to line up with the staircase. like imagine playing pac-man, but you had to line him up with the corridors perfectly or youd run into a wall. the first video is of my gameplay, and you can see me struggle to line up. judging by the waixing video, that one doesn’t seem as terrible, but he seems to still have a rough time.

controls aside, i’m not confident it would be a very fun game for very long even if it did control well. it appears to have only 8 levels. maybe pac-man fans would like this for a minute, but i was never a huge fan of games where im being chased in a maze.  they stress me the hell out.

i dont wanna give this thing a sponge bath!!! i’ll cry!!!!
