When switching between characters, it reminds me of an old game: `Lost Vikings'. However, it has a dynamic of its own, which is very nice. Regarding the performance issues mentioned above: I use a mac Powerbook PPC G4 1.5 Ghz (which is rather old) with 1.25 Gb RAM and it runs reasonably well. So I think you've done a rather nice job programming, 'despite' Lua ;-) Lovely game! When switching between characters, it reminds me of an old game: `Lost Vikings’.

Thanks Jeb, I did just what you said (I guess I can now add" LUA scripter" to my resume) and beat the boss... damn he's a tough one! but it was worth it 'cause the end-game sequence is pure awesomeness, go on everybody, finish the game and be amazed! Victory :) !

I was shocked to realize it was using Lua as the performance was simply amazing. So I don't know why Feone had some trouble running the game. Maybe it's got something to do with graphics drivers... As for the game. I like it a lot. The graphics and animations are simply amazing. The gameplay is cool. The only annoyance is that there are couple of collision bugs... Few times they ended up ruining the game for me.... One time I fell through some tiles and ended up in a place that I couldn't escape. But overall great job for a game made in month!

You'll also need some extra powerups to be able to beat the boss, though. Look around in "main.lua", you'll probably find how to add them. /jeb Ben:
