A Snail!? Who woulda thought!

You play as Snail-Chan, and are tasked with defending the Dream castle! You can run, jump, thwack enemies, and use stars you collect for special powers!

inspired by the musician Snail's House

Finally Finished! Thanks everyone for playing the game.

Oh, and feel free to modify and remix this.
You can change the map to whatever you want. There's a big table at the start of the cart that stores all the level data like enemies and doors, where on the map the level is, and the background and effects the level has.

Make some cool levels!

Changes

  • Now only lose one star when hit
  • removed some annoying enemies from levels
  • changed sprite for salt to look more dangerous
  • Added a new speed run timer that activates if x is pressed on start screen
  • removed aiming and instead made all attacks centered
  • made level changes to accommodate new attacks

Looks pretty — but I could not get out of the pit. How do I do it? Double jump is not high enough.

I love it!

But how the f#$% do I progress in level 4? :<

[edit] I made it, but the game crashed when I shot at the cat in the next level.

Pretty art and presentation, just like a picture book!
The controls are pretty solid as well.
I find the star bullet/life point system a bit problematic, but this is a lot of fun.
I've been playing since the early versions and was looking forward to seeing how this would turn out.

Do levels 6 and 7 have books? I never saw any, but they might be hidden.

I love snails house! Good job capturing the vibe ^___^

Very fun, and the art is beautiful! My highscores (non-consecutive): 122 stars (max?), 1:32 total time.

The only star I wasn't able to get was in the star level (fittingly), since you need a double jump to reach the balloon. Other levels can get every star by double-jumping repeatedly over a star spawn, and getting a lucky respawn that you immediately re-collect.

My level times aren't anywhere near perfect, but it was fun reducing them anyway! The cat boss can't be attacked when its eyes are red, so that level was the hardest to run.

Nice work! Very cute game! Reminds me of Kirby! It would be nice if one of Ujico's music would be added~♪!

I love the style of the graphics in this, it's got a unique look. The paralax scrolling on the backgrounds of each level was just great. Nice solid platform mechanics and some fun powerups and mechanics.

It definitely works for me here, @fsdsdsffs. What version of Pico-8 do you have and the console/ computer/ os you are running it in ?
