DescriptionWhy bother writing a brand new original game for the compo, when you can simply reuse your old code again and again? Yep, it's another FreescrapTM game from the grandmaster of barrel-scraping, Mr Mole.

Still, at least he's made the colours different. The castle is now a pyramid. Plus there's also a small aeroplane on a runway for some reason, although it doesn't do anything at all. Apart from that, the game's much the same - get the key (in the aeroplane) and go into the door of the building. It still takes yonks to move a single step of course, so speed your emulators up to the max unless you want the game to take hours.

Alas, there's also the small matter of a ridiculous time limit in this game, which appears to make it impossible to complete. Everytime I tried, despite going straight for the key, by the time I'd turned to face the entrance it was 'time up'. (Solution: Be a cheating bast. BREAK the program and delete line 150, then RUN it again. Voila, infinite time!)
