What is BlockMan?
BlockMan is a remake of a very challenging puzzle game that I used to play on my Ti-83 calculator. You are BlockMan, and your mission is to complete all of the eleven levels in the game. To beat each level you must reach the door, but this is not as easy since the door is not always in a convenient place. There are obstacles in the way such as bricks that are non-moveable and blocks that are moveable, which you can use to your advantage. Block Dude has the ability to pick up and put down one block at a time, and then can climb up and down the blocks and bricks in order to reach the door. His movement is limited to one space at a time however, and he can only climb up and to the left or right in one diagonal space. You must use the blocks to get over columns of bricks, and to build staircases to reach other sets of blocks that will be necessary in your goal of reaching the door in each level. The levels become increasingly harder and more complex to solve, and you will need to use strategy and experimentation with your placement of the blocks in order to solve a level.
Controls:
LEFT/RIGHT:
The Left and Right arrow keys will move BlockMan in those directions accordingly. These keys will only turn Block Dude if he is currently trapped in a space with no open positions to the left or right.
DOWN KEY:
The Down key will Pick Up a block that BlockMan is facing and standing adjacent to. It will also Put Down a block that he is holding into the open position currently in front of him.
UP KEY plus Left/Right Key: The Up key plus holding the Left/Right key will allow Block Dude to climb up a block or brick that he is current facing and standing adjacent to. This will make him move diagonally up and left or right depending on which direction he is facing.
Enter KEY:
The Enter key will quit the current level of Block Dude and bring up a message prompt asking you if you want to Restart the current level or not.
