Sky-Whirling Geo - platform 4.5Mb
Here we have a fun Japanese platform game with 3 shortish levels and two difficulty modes. It has cute graphics and you are armed only with your trusty sword. Use the ‘Z’ key to jump and the ‘X’ key to slash. Tapping the jump button repeatedly flaps your wings (!) and you fly upwards. A special attack can be executed by holding the attack button, once fully charged; as is shown by the yellow gauge at the top of the screen. You can stab downwards by pressing both the X and down arrow key while in midair. The game force-scrolls and baddies appear in designated waves at timed intervals, giving you the opportunity to do much hacking, stabbing and slashing! Much of the difficulty comes from recognising and reacting to patterns of enemy attack and having only a single life in the game. It is possible to run out of time in the easy mode boss battles, but time is not usually the determining factor. One hit kills the enemies which helps considerably. You are asked initially to select windowed or full-screen, and the ‘Z’ key starts the game. Whether it makes much sense doesn’t matter, as it’s certainly a great deal of great fun to play!
