Icy Tower

In 2001, a simple platformer titled Icy Tower was released, developed by Johan Peitz and Emanuel Garnheim, with music by Anders Svensson. Years later, the first and third of the above-mentioned developers, as well as other creators, decided to prepare a reboot of that game. It resulted in the project described here, also titled Icy Tower.

Gameplay

The new Icy Tower draws heavily from the original. We're dealing with a classic 2D platformer, in which we watch the action from the side. By controlling Harold Homeboy, who wears a large hat, and other characters, our aim to climb as high as possible on an endless tower.

The old-new Icy Tower

By jumping on platforms, sliding on surfaces, bouncing off walls, and above all, linking jumps into spectacular combinations, we pass through various biomes and earn points reflecting how well we are doing. As progress is made, the difficulty level of the challenges increases, testing our dexterity and reflexes. From time to time, power-ups can be found that may save us from failing the game.
