Elementum

Overview:

New homebrew game written by 0xC0DE in 2020 for the Acorn Electron and BBC Micro and published on physical media by Retro Software on the 'Retro Power' label in Q1, 2021.

Storyline:

In a strange, hostile world electronic components have taken the 6502 CPU hostage. Its 8 status flags are scattered all over each of the 32 levels.

You, a brave electron, have to collect the flags and free the 6502 CPU. Avoid enemies like rogue resistors, leaky batteries and bad capacitors. Most of all, watch out for your nemesis: the positron.

Can you beat normal mode with infinite lives? How about hard mode with 40 lives?
