Treasure of Pharaoh


After going silent for some time after releasing his Sci-Fi YoYo smash hit homebrew, Snowmydog came back with yet another game - Treasure of Pharaoh. The previous version got a lot of good feedback, and some might be holding back because they think it's too much of a Lode Runner copycat. Well, to all the haters out there (if there are any), you're missing out on a happy childhood.

Lots of stuff have been added to this new version. Usual updates and tweaks here and there, plus a brand-spanking new auto-save feature. As for the rest of the Treasure of Pharaoh v0.2 changelog:
  • AI updated. With updated AI, the Anubis is much "reasonable". I've tested it with all 150 levels, and it's working very fine. If you can't solve a level, just try again and think. The greatest fun of this game is you need to figure out how to solve the level. It's not easy. If you're lode runner fans, you know what I mean.
  • Graphics updated.
  • Several bugs fixed.
  • Options menu is now working. You can turn on/off background music and turn on/off false brick. False brick is a tile which have the same outlook as the ground. But you cannot dig on it. When you run on top on it, you'll drop to the next floor. Just like stepping on air. Turning off the false brick, will render the false brick differently, so you can see it clearly. This will make the game much easier.
  • High score is now working. Auto saved when clear a level.
  • Keys configuration changed.
    • L+Triangle goes to previous level
    • R+Triangle goes to next level (minus 1 life)
    • L+R+Triangle restart current level (minus 1 life)

does the animation show the charcter shoot left and right on the floors or does it still look like it appears out of nowhere?

One of, if not the best homebrew ever.
