Nowadays a platform game
means something that
scrolls in eight directions at 50hz speed, has power-ups and
jump-on-a-monster-to-kill-it action. This is thought to be an
improvement over the 8-bit-style platform games such as Jet Set Willy
or Monty Mole.
This is why such games are not made today.
Nobody just does it in the good old style anymore.
Except now, that is! I have decided to revive the "old school" of
platform games, by creating Top Hat Willy,
the Ultimate in Platform Games Entertaiment!
