Exodus Eskpe

EXODUS ESKPE

Eskpe is a retro action-survival video game with which you can control a character who must escape the dangers that are in his way. Among the dangers of the game, you will meet enemies who can kill you. There are also objects with which you will have to be careful, and others that will give you points. You must be careful because if you want to get the maximum score you cannot die even once, if you die, your points will be reset to zero.

Can you get out of this dangerous world?

This video game is programmed in assembly Z80 with CPCTelera.
