Could you scape from a magic island in other dimension?

Someday you take a walk by the forest when a black fog surrounds you. When you wake up you see that you have been moved to the middle of a strange beach. In the horizon there is no more than sea. You donīt have noticed but an old man is behind you and starts to talk. Your quest is about to begin!

This is you (in the game, of course). Controls are:


RIGHT/LEFT KEYS: make him walk in both directions.


DOWN KEY: make him crouch to avoid some traps.


[Z] KEY (or joy button A): make him jump. The high of the jump depends on the time you keep pressing Z.


[X] KEY (or joy button B): make him run. Use it to make a bit longer jumps.

[Z] KEY (or joy button A): make him jump. The high of the jump depends on the time you keep pressing Z.

[Z] KEY (or joy button A): make him jump. The high of the jump depends on the time you keep pressing Z.

-ENEMIES-

The Loo Island is filled with enemies. Be careful with them, because if you touch one of them, you miss one life. Luckly, all enemies can be defeated if you squash them. Take care: some of them are more difficult to see or simply can protect themselves from those atacks. If some of them, like this, called CONUS, can protect themselves, try to push them to the sea once you have squashed them.

-ITEMS-

You may find magic items. Take or touch them to get extra lives, score or some other things. Here is a list:



Those gems are in every courses of the island. Take them to make appear magic portals. Each one adds one gem to your collection and 250 points to your score.



The same as the red gems, but each one adds two gems to your collection and gives you 500 points.



Break those treasure boxes jumping over them and you fill find an extra life.



Take it and you will be invincible for a while. This only protects you from enemies.


-COURSE CHECKS AND FINNISH FLAGS-

In every courses you will find those checks. Those are essential to clear the stage or to set the starting point from them for not to start each stage from the beginning once you die.



Touch it to make the arrow point to the right. Those are CHECK POINTS. If you touch it you will reappear in this point of the stage everytime you die. If one stage has more then one check point then you will reappear in the last you have touched.



Touch this finnish flag to clear the stage. If you donīt clear the actual stage you canīt go to the next one.


-ARTIFACTS-


In Loo Island you can cross the sea in a motorboat. With it you make small jumps to avoid some rocks pressing [Z] key. Use right and left keys to move forward or backward.



In some parts of loo island there are diving boards like this. Jump over them to reach higher zones that you canīt reach with a simple jump. If you jump in the right edge the jump will be much more higher, but be careful. You may fall if you do any mistake. Donīt press jump while you are doing it or it will have no effect.



In Loo Island there are a lot of small whirlwinds. You can use them to avoid some spiked zones or falls. They get you in the upper part of them and only set you free if you collide with a wall.





If you see something like this post then try to interpretate it. Sometimes those posts give you an advice or something you should do in that moment.



In jungle you can find some lianes. Is easy to use them. Keep pressing jump to catch them and release it to fall. Remember that you will de impulsed forward or backward at the same speed of the liane.


-SECRETS OF LOO ISLAND-

-Loo Island has a lot of secrets. Only you can find all them. Some important things about those secrets are:



This is an invisible block. It appears only when you walk over it. Sometimes those secret blocks are a way to get something.



This is a MAGIC PORTAL. Get into it and travell to another dimension where the magic keys are. Remember that you need the five keys hidden by DarkDeep to enter the tower. This portal only appears when you have 50 gems at least.



And this is one of the magic keys. Take five different keys and defeat DarkDeep (but this is NOT IMPLEMENTED in this version).


-GAME RULES-

In this game does not exist the word GAME OVER. You can continue all that you want. If in the continue scene you wait for the clock reach zero, then you lose your gems and your score return to zero too. Each time you continue you restart from the last course you have played with 3 lifes. If you clear one stage it saves the game in this moment, so you can exit from it pressing ALT-X or SCAPE to return to main menu and choose EXIT option. The save file is called Player.sav and is in the same directory as the game. If you delete this file, all information about your quest will be lost. You will need to do this if you want to start the game from the beginning.


-LAST NOTES-

I want you to enjoy the game until your eyes get red and wet. If you canīt pass from one course, read Hints.txt (this file comes with the game). The game is best as you reach the last levels, so try it!.
