Nice.
Now the question is: can you be killed by spikes + chomper + guard? :P

By the way, if you have the sword and you don't want to fight immediately with the guard, you can turn and immediately crouch, that way you would avoid the fight. However, when you get up back, as you are facing the guard, you would have to fight.

Norbert, if you think this is a trick, please upload it to PoPOT.

Hah. :)
So... if you don't mind me asking, do you think there's a way to die from a guard, then from falling from great height ("ahhh!"), then from a spike, and then from a chomper?
I've just made some attempts, but so far without success...

Initially I tried that same, but failed to do so, but I'll try again. I think it's due to that the Kid falls, but then somehow he's aligned and then falls right over the spikes and disallow chompers to chop him. Maybe the falling potion can help, but it's mostly luck!

If we inspect the source code, maybe there's more chance that we can find the correct distance, time, keys and speed to meet the required conditions.

Edit: Yes, it's possible. Just add few more empty rooms (so Kid can scream) between the shown :)

P.S: It's also interesting to note how sometimes the game thinks it's the death because of spikes, because of chomper, because of guard, etc. and plays the respctive music!

Challenges for players!

For now, I have couple of challenges for players. I know that those can be completed very easily, but I may have more challenges in the future :)

If you want to post such challenges, please post them, just make sure those are possible to complete. If there's any custom LEVELS.DAT and/or PRINCE.EXE required, please post it too.

Post your solution with a p1r file or a video. ;)

Good luck!

Hm... So, since you didn't attach a LEVELS.DAT file, your challenges can be completed in the original game? Or am I not understanding you correctly?
