Hi guys! This is my development on Dangerous Dave clone style NES. The prototype was created during the week. I hope you enjoy it.  Please rate the game and point out errors. I need your opinion about it.

You can download the game here (http://rghost.ru/53684811).
Controls: Moving - left /right arrows, Jump - x, Shoot - z, Reload - down arrow, Open doors - up arrow.

Sorry for my bad English. I'm from Russia.) This is WIP!

Does the game end at the end-level door? I got that far but couldn't enter it.

This is a weird demake. In a way - I'm not sure it's necessary, as NES graphics look only marginally different than the game's original EGA. Furthermore, I'm afraid you lost a large part of the original Dangerous Dave's appeal when you made player and enemy sprites chibi.

While it doesn't really work as a demake - it might still work as an original game. Add more enemies/obstacles, spruce up the level design, and maybe give the player more abilities - and bam! Original game: )

I agree with this part of the comment DarkFalzX:

@ winged doom

That UI edit is amazing, especially that life count icon. There's so much character in it. :D  :y:

@winged doom
Again I'm speechless. :applause: So few pixels so good characterization. You've made me play this game, and I must say that it has potential. Level element placement reminds me to Michael Jackson's Moonwalker.
