A China Miner Christmas (2023, Arlasoft)

Taking advantage of the Christmas spirit, Arlasoft, known for its quality games, has revamped the famously difficult 1984 platform game and dressed it up in a Christmas outfit.

The entire game has been re-written from the ground up complete with ‘modern’ controls and physics together with fairer collision detection to allow your character to nimbly traverse around the screen in a more contemporary fashion, whilst retaining the THIRTY fiendish level designs from the original that 99.99% of players never managed to reach, due to the bizarre control scheme and need for split-second timing.

In addition to better controllability the cool overhaul has made the whole game much more beautiful than the original. Furthermore the spectacular snowfall has other features too, as you get a time bonus if you complete the course before the snow has fully accumulated.
