Escape from PETSCII Castle
A downloadable game
Wolfenstein 3D broke all the molds when it was release in 1992. Escape From PETSCII Castle is a new game inspired by Wolf3D but written for my 1981-vintage Commodore PET computer. Shoot enemies, gather treasures ... and find the elevator to escape.

I'm impressed. Even if I do not find the elevator - for now - it is a little great game. Awesome!
Edit: I made a 5 minutes long video of the game, using the skill "I know the killer poke" and xpet emulator.
Oh cool .. good playing to get to that point!
Thanks. So I went a little farther than I first thought? Good news!
Edit: just finished it on "I wrote donkey.bas" skill. I know, it is easier, but challenging anyway. I finished with 20% of health. So easy skill? In a way yes, in a way not really :)
I played it using keyboard so I took easily some damages :(
Well done! It looks like you found some of the hidden passages .. but missed one in particular (where the final "prize" is).
Thanks. I found two or three secret room, finding the machine gun in one of them.
But finishing the game without dying was m'y goal... I really thought I'll lost at least a life... I was lucky.
This game shows what the Pet can do :)
Another fantastic game—both technically and in terms of game mechanics. Congratulations, Jim!
Thanks Kornel!
