A simple fan made remake of a classic.
Controls
Press X and a direction to shoot web. Hold and press the x to shoot a longer web.
The web must attach to the building. Now press up to move up.
Spooderman can also climb on solid surfaces and during a fall can move left and right.
Rules
Climb up and disarm the SuperBomb, stop enemies and smaller bombs and collect point.
Enemies and bombs can cut your web, doing so will make you fall.
Capturing thieves and disarming bombs will give you points.
Behind the scenes
My son is a huge fan of classic Spider-man games and the Atari version is difficult for him.
So I made a simpler game with unlimited web and no time limit.
This is my first time trying pico-8.
It was important for him it looked like the original game.
There was a lot of trick with the web, where it should attach and where not.
I did learn a lot and pico-8 has been fun.
One thing I really made easy was the swinging to the sides, normally there will be a swing,
here the players just moves back and forth on x axis and not on y.
This has been on my remake list for years ever since I owned the original back in the early 80s.wish Id read the write up before playing as I thought he could never crawl the walls in the original but does now, which always made me mad has he always could in the comics and cartoons. Maybe an option to allow this on or off (for purists like myself). Also more levels - nothing major there just larger buildings etc, and perhaps a colour change between levels. All in all a nice remake.
