Knight Trap
A downloadable game
This is my entry for the game-making compo at Zoo '22 Commodore 64 demo party.
The game is tested on real hardware, TheC64, and VICE emulator. The game will run in PAL and NTSC modes, but it's not optimized for NTSC.

I like the game, it has similarities to classic-games like "Lady Tut" or "Lady Bug" and so on. The only thing, i don't really like is, that the player must reach over to the keyboard every time, to open certain doors. Maybe it would have been better here, to find a way, that everything could be controlled on the controller? For example in a way like this:
- hold down firebutton and move stick to the left = open green doors
- hold down firebutton and move stick to the right = open yellow doors
- hold down firebutton and move stick up = open pink doors
Or somehow similar to that. Important would be only, that the player could open the doors on his joystick/gamepad and that it does not affect the movements of his sprite, when he does this. It could be selectable in the game-menue, whether the player wants this new type of control, or the old one. What do you think about it, for a possible v3 of the game?
Pretty entertainment game !
muy buen juego,gracias
very tedious gameplay, more annoying than fun. only 4/10 for me
Cool game!
Morning. I am the editor of a magazine about Commodore and Amiga computers "K&A Plus". I am writing to you regarding a certain issue. In our newspaper we run the so-called "Cover Disk" that is, we place, with the permission of the author, games that we think should be on such a disk. Would you be interested in having your title KNIGHT TRAP in the upcoming 22nd issue? We would be very pleased if we got your permission. For my part, I would like to add that I am writing a short review about KNIGHT TRAP for the latest issue. If this would not pose a problem then I would ask for your permission. Greetings Retro Chlop "K&A Plus".

I give my permission for you to write a review about this game :)
can we put the game as a supplement to our magazine in the so-called "COVER DISK"?
If we can talk about it, feel free to email me

Interesting little game - I was just trying it out. Looks like an actual bug, I managed to find myself outside the maze and walk around? And when I moved around the edge to the top of the screen I could collect the 5 blue what look like jugs and they were added to my score. I think I was exiting on the left but could have pressed one of the function keys at the time. Once outside you can't get back inside. Edit: I did manage to get back inside later on after more testing if I transformed back into a ghost.
Thanks for letting us know. Issue is fixed and new files uploaded.
very good
Nice game!
