Hi, everybody. After 1 month of development, I'm here to presents my latest work - "Treasure of Pharaoh". This is my second homebrew for psp. I did all the graphics and coding. SFX from flashkit.com

"Treasure of Pharaoh" is a clone of "Lode Runner". For those of you who are too young to knew "Lode Runner". Please visit wikipedia.org. It's a classic game features in Gamespot's "Greatest game of all time".

Half action, half puzzle, 150 challenging levels of platform game. You act as a tomb raider, steals treasure inside a pyramid. Some treasure are located at places that is hard to reach. At the same time, Anubis will try their best to catch you. You do not have any weapon, all you can do is dig a hole to temporarily trap the Anubis. If the hole is refilled before the Anubis escapes. The Anubis will respawns at the
top of the screen at a random position. You must collect all the gems within the level and go to top of the screen to advance to next level. Remember, you're not the only one who collect the gems, the Anubis does too!

Control:
D-pad - move the player
Square - dig a hole at left
Circle - dig a hole at right
Start - pause the game

Special command:
Select+triangle - restart current level. Some maps are tricky, you'll have a chance to run into a place that you can't go out. Use this function to restart the current map, however, this will costs you 1life.

Select+R trigger - advance to next level. Costs 1 life.
L trigger - back to previous level. Don't costs life.

Something you might want to know:
1. Hi-Score and Options is not working at the moment.
2. The AI is not same as the original, some map may become impossible to complete. I'm begging you to report, I'll try to fix.
3. When a level is completed, game will be auto saved and you've got an extra life.
4. Some tiles are "fake floor", they look the same as the real ground, but you cannot dig on it. When you stand on it, it will drop to next floor. **THIS IS NOT A BUG**

Please feel free to comment. Enjoy!

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to run going through the eLoader. (2.71+Kriek)

Too bad...
