A 2D platformer deliberately written in the style of 1980s computer games. It's split into two halves: one half in the garden, and the other in a strange castle. This game follows 8-bit Jim, the star of my other game "8-bit Jim's Island Adventure", in his attempt to mow the lawn before his friends arrive for a birthday party. But the lawnmower is broken, some strange people have moved into the compost bin at the bottom of the garden, and multicoloured bears seem to be everywhere. This game is still gradually being developed, refining the levels and maybe adding some more. I originally had this as a bonus level to the paid-for version of Island Adventure, but that meant not many people actually played it. So I recently decided to split it out into a free-to-download standalone game. The story is a bit obscure, but I hope people like it anyway! Look out for references to 80s computer games, particularly on the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum.

Wishing well

Description

8-bit Jim has a surprising large garden. The first half of the game is spent trying to find parts to the lawnmower, while being chased by various retro nasties.
