You, the Golden Knight, must rescue the Pixel Princess from the clutches of the evil Red Guard. They have built a cunning maze to protect the princess from the grubby paws of Knights (of any color, for that matter). Will you succeed, with the help of magic Potions hidden in the maze...?

Explanatory notes for SWAP-A-THON

It's fun to be part of a gamejam/swapathon.
Yes I'm posting the game too early: but, disaster could strike tomorrow already.
Yes I don't include sources: I'll promise to open-source it before end of world.
(plus, the level .dat file can be edited - it's png. Music too. So get hacking!)
Yes I didn't read the 11 rules properly: but rule 11 says that's ok.
(one Rule to rule them all??)
On the upside, the game is clearly unfinished! Try it. At least got that right. One could say it's half finished ;)

lofty greetings,

Quest for the Source Codex

Yes, you're reading this right! A grand meta-quest has been added as part of this gameplay/gamedev experience. (Since glorioustrainwrecks.com is the perfect site that IMO pioneers the "gamedev as a new form of gaming" approach. Enough academic meta-analysis :-) )

THE SOURCE CODE IS OUT ON THE GREAT WIDE WEB - O CUNNING WIZARD OF CODERY, CAN YOU FIND THE SOURCE CODEX ??!!??
