For NES and FAMICOM

----------

Ancient legends say that once every hundred years, when the stars begin to fall from the sky,

the doors of the Old Towers open.  The abandoned rooms of the Towers hold untold treasures and deadly traps.

Many brave heroes, hungry for riches, have traveled to these Cursed Towers, but none of them have ever returned...

I discovered old towers with the zx spectrum version (which is not available on itch.io 😏)

And I enjoy playing it again on every platform. It's really great work! It's fun and it's fast.

Maybe one day an Amstrad CPC version will see the light of day 😇

Amazing game! I love how you animate background tiles by flipping pattern tables. Although I encountered a bug, I think. I am using FCEUX emulator and I left game unattended to make some coffee and when I came back to it after some time all background was haywire like static on a bad TV. I tried to reproduce it, but on first four levels it did not happened, but in level 5 of Sunshine Tower (where cannons first appear) if you leave game for 15 or so minutes untouched it goes bad.

Oh, thanks! It really help to fina a rare bug, just upload v1.1 Now it should be more stable!

Hello, congratulations for awesome game, as ever. I would like to talk about a physical release. Can you write me to playonretro@gmail.com Thanks a lot!!

Sweeeeeet!


Update: Almost finished with it already! It's really good. Not complaints at all with the gameplay.

If I had one niptick it would be that I wish there was some kind of transition when you go to the next tower. Like a cutscene or something. Maybe showing the two brothers flying to the next one. Don't quite like how it just instantly jumps.

Glad to see a NES port of Old Towers! The version was also really fun to play through.

Is there any chance that a sort of world select could be added? I'd love to add achievements via RetroAchievements and feature challenges for each world. It would be a lot more reasonable if the player were able to choose their starting point. I feel this could be desired by non-achievement players as well!

I like that idea!

In one word : AWESOME !!

Awesome!
