My entry to the first #ToyBoxJam is, a PICO-8 remake of...
  Alfredo's Stupendous Surprise!

(Originally created by Tom HallJohn Romero - for Softdisk Issue #98)

I made it as best as I could, within the jam limitations
(e.g. only using pre-defined assets!)

CONTROLS:

  • Choose options (when prompted)   = β—€ /  β–Ά
  • X or Z to Start/Select

GAME:

Alfredo's back in this PICO-8 remake, especially for #ToyBoxJam
and has he got a surprise for you! πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰

  • Will Alfredo get to his house?
  • Will he get to blow out the candles on his cake?
  • Will he die in some horrible death?

Play his latest adventure and find out!

Have fun & thanks for playing! 😁

haha nice one Paul! On my first go, I died at the flames with a deadly burp :P
Great jam entry!

Thanks a lot Roy! Aww... happens to the best of us! πŸ˜‚πŸΊπŸ”₯

Looks like Dragon's Lair to me :] Same deep gameplay (but too cute to stop playing!)

Thank you, Sir!

Dya know what? I never noticed the parallels when playing the original, but you're RIGHT!
Tom + John have a LOT to answer for! (I'll let you tell them, tho!)😁
