I made a game for the #zxspectrum. Again :)
This is the first-ever 3D platformer for the Spectrum, featuring mind-blowing labyrinths and logical puzzles. The game has 6 unique levels, cool gameplay mechanics, and excellent responsive controls.

I wonder how you have time to review games qualitatively and vote for every three. The fourth block of games is already available for your review! Don't miss it.

Do you think I should record a video called "Nothing: Tricks and secrets explained"? I've watched a lot of walkthroughs, but so far no one has discovered all the secrets in the game.
