Although the title suggest it's 8-Bit, it's actually more of mixture of pseudo 8/16 bit style and chiptunes. The main inspiration has been the c64 version of Giana Sisters, mixed with elements from Rainbow Island, New Zealand Story, Rick Dangerous, Wonderboy in Monsterland, Super Mario Bros 3 and many more. The game is filled with little references here and there. The main goal has been to keep it a straight classic scrolling platformer though, with intuitive controls and depth to the gameplay. The kind of game that is almost impossible to find on PC today. And that's why I have always dreamed of making such a game.

Btw. - I had no intention on being really inventive or highly original. My goal was to create a platformer that plays incredible well and make it available on PC. In my oppinion, there is no classic platformer on PC that plays really well except Super Meat Boy or emulated stuff. IMO - the PC platform really need to get a good simple platformer with no puzzles involved.
Thanks TIGForum members.
