omg it's like playing Castle (or was it Dungeon?) in DOS.

This reminds me of the games that we used to make on the TI-85 in middle school.

Yeah, but not so intricate. Level 9 must have taken AGES to get just right. God knows it took me awhile to figure out. :)

It was featured on Jay Is Games a few days ago, so if you get stuck there are walkthroughs for some of the levels in the comments...

I concur, though -- pretty sweet game.

But... that's a sans-serif font!

Perhaps the I is on a quest to look for his serifs and must travel through the evil kingdom of sans-serifness to find the secret serif stash.

I actually think this is better than Hapland.

This would be *perfect* if it was a console application, and i could telnet to it, instead of some lame Flash.

Except it's not Flash! Wow - kudos! I am teh fool.

So has anybody made any levels?

Doesn't work in Safari. Not that that's ever stopped Google...

This game is amazingly good. Just hard enough to make you proud when you beat a level, and easy enough to allow you to beat a level. That sort of thing is hard to do.

How in God's name do you do level 11?

Never mind, sussed it.

Oh god. This is wonderful. I'm getting Lode Runner flashbacks.
