Cursor Adventure - More Info



Release Date: Discontinued project
Latest Update: April 1, 2012 (Demo 2)
Size: 1.4 MB

Update (2/11/2014): The password to edit Cursor Adventure has been released. You can find it in the Password section.

Description
A mysterious red gem has been stolen at the local museum, and it's up to you, Curso the Cursor, to take on the quest to retrieve the gem back.
Inspired by Mouse Paths, Pointer's Way, Pixels Neon, and Pac Man World 2, your goal is to guide your cursor through a path-based course without touching any obstacles. Navigate your way through over 60 levels and occasional boss fights!
What makes this mouse maze game different from any other game you've played in the integrated graphics. For example, instead of avoiding rectangles, you may have to dodge cars and boulders coming through your path! As well as that, every level has a different background for you to view. Cursor Adventure is designed to be simple for kids, yet challenging for adults.

This game is currently in Demo/Beta testing, which means that the game is incomplete, but I'll update the game as I go, using your feedback in the process. After playing through the demo, I highly advise you to post a comment here with your response on how the game is.

Update: This project has been discontinued.

"Kids, wanna scare your parents?" renamed to "PowerPoint Pranks"

Why? Because the latter sounds cheesy, and the other has some alliteration in it. I hope you prefer the other.
