Looking for obscure 2d platformer

Post by hellricer »

Hello. This is quite a long shot, but I'm looking for super-obscure game from my childhood.

The tricky part is that it probably wasn't official release, more like a homebrew-type of stuff. Here's some details I remember:

Platform: DOS
Genre: 2D platformer (non-scrolling - reaching one side of screen would bring you to different part of level)
Graphics/art style: 16 colors (maybe less), characters were simple one-color figures, levels were made from same-sized blocks. Some blocks would act as ladders, some could be transparent, others could be solid from one side and passable from other side, etc.
Other details: Included level editor. In the editor you could place blocks AND then place red markers into them indicating which sides are solid. (You could e.g. have a block which could be entered only from one side).

Graphically similar to Lode Runner, Jetpack, or Freddy's Rescue Roundup.
