Hunchback Pocket (Pico-8)

 by straydogstrut

A Pico-8 remake of an Amstrad classic!

A tribute to the 1983 Amstrad CPC classic — Hunchback — reimagined for the fantasy console Pico-8.

Play as Quasimodo, the hunchback of Notre Dame, and brave a series of perilous castle walls in your quest to rescue the fair Esmeralda. Leap over pits, dodge arrows, and time your swings across ropes as you sprint from danger to danger in this fast-paced, one-screen-at-a-time platformer.

This remake aims to capture the spirit and challenge of the original 8-bit game, with a fresh Pico-8 style twist.

• 15 handcrafted levels inspired by the original Amstrad version

• Arcade-style difficulty and timing-based platforming

• Rope swings, enemy knights, fire pits, arrows, and bells

• Retro sound effects and sprite animations

• Built from scratch in Pico-8
