Sqrxz requires fast reflexes and is a simply mindblasting Jump'n'Run puzzle
game with high frustration factor originally made in 1996 by Marcus Vesterlund
(Maze) and John Holmvall (Hojo) for DOS and Windows 9x.
Sqrxz (2010) is a remake of a game with the same name and has been created by
Rodolphe Boixel (Thor), Shahzad Sahaib (Kojote), Simon Butler and Brendan
Ratliff (Syphus). Minor support came from Marcus Vesterlund himself who also
gave permission to redo his game. Denny Müller (Mulle) supported the team with
a WordPress-Theme for the official page and Rabia Sahaib (Mahek) made three
more levels.
A remake should be usually bearing improvements, so does Sqrxz 2010. Beside
the 'classic' graphic mode, there is a new mode with 'deluxe' graphics. The
main gameplay has modified in a way that you need to collect all items to open
the door at the end of each level, which makes some levels harder than they
actually already were. Extended fun is guarantueed with additional three
levels, unseen before. Each level does have it's own chiptune and adds up to
the retro feeling. A Top 10 highscore table will hold all your records. For
the ones who like hidden features, there is even a small easter egg!
