Wheels of Elefantita!
A downloadable game for Windows
This game was created in less than a week as a birthday's gift to my beloved partner.
It's inspired by Nes and MSX era, and it's mainly based on the game "City Connection".
========================================
GAMEPLAY:
You have 3 extra lives, and your mission is to paint the entire track while avoiding police cars.
Each stage has a Bonus reward (displayed at top right corner of the screen) that is constantly decremented by time.
When you Clear the Stage, that Bonus will be added to your Score.
The game ends when you lose all lives.
You will gain lives by score every 15000, 30000, 60000, etc.
Note that you can break some bricks hitting them from below (those bricks aren't necessary to clear the stage, but sometimes, break them leads you to new areas).
========================================
CONTROLS:
Mainly you have control of the player's horizontal movement, and jumps.
Note that your jump altitude depends of how much long you keep pressing the Jump Button.
You can play using your Joystick or Keyboard.
The Keyboard combinations are:
For Movement: Left & Right, A & D or Numpad 4 & 6.
For Jump: X, V, Up, W, K, U, O or Numpad 8.

The Joystick configuration are pretty obvious:

========================================

Thanks! It's funny how you always try to move at max speed instead of slow down a bit! xD
