"In a creepingly dark night, a mysterious house with a weird shape appeard."
After many people go missing, our hero Pocus, The Magician, presents himself to solve this mystery and put an end to the reign of terror of Froggo.
It's a quick, fast-paced platformer with a high difficulty curve. We hope you'll find it fun enough!

This is seriously great, feels like a genuine NES game. Graphics and sound are top notch. I must admit though that the flip mechanic- while extremely cool and well-done, hurts my brain and I can't get the hang of it. I'm dumb with stuff like that. So I can't really give an honest review of your main 'hook' here. But everything looks great!! Wonderful job.
Thank you for playing it! Don't worry, I'm also pretty bad at platformers (still love them tho).
Sorry to reply off topic. I'm trying to connect with Rata. I have a question about a particular piece of art and featuring it in a book. If you see this message please connect us. You can reach me at novalin at gmail dot com
I love the way you made this in the classic NES style, really giving me inspiration to try that myself
Thank you! Just keep the limitations in mind and you can make it look like a real NES game, I recommend you to try out, it's really fun.
That flip mechanic is such a huge mind bender. It feels very creative to play with.
Thanky you! I'm really glad to know that you liked it!
