  Took me a while to be able to collect anything,
  Also you have to press up to go up a screen instead of just jumping up.
  
  The enemies are so fast its impossible to avoid them.
  
  Are all the blue lines climbable? the climbing seems broken, rarely am I able to climb anything.

  in order to work the mechanical ladders (the blue lines topped by a golden knob) you need to collect the tool in the laboratory in the left screen
  (make sure you are well inside the mech ladder)
  other items need to be collected in order to proceed ...but if i would give away the solution it woulndn't be a puzzle right ?
  
  (there is a key somewhere that allows you to collect the pieces of the wing bat set, inside the crystal domes)

  are you sure the enemes dont drain your energy too fast? one touch is often fatal.

  depends on the enemies.. just try to get away from them as much as possible
  anyway here is a little help for the first part of lev 1

  I'm enjoying my retirement, this would have been hacked by now. Excellent game by the way.

  even with the video tutorial I have trouble collecting the wings n things
  
  it is an interesting game though

  You should get the key in the secret workshop (below the one in the left screen) to get the wing pieces..
  
  
  PS some of you might like to see the AGD files, so i put them in a subfolder
  Hope the Dropbox link still works, otherwise plese let me know

  Tried the game yesterday and looks good, and moves good, but it is hard as rock! :) Even more tan Cattivik!

  well
  having the AGD files allows you to set the difficulty level as you like it (just remove enemies here and there)

  Tried different things, but I don't know what's the next step once I collect the 4 eggs. Will keep trying...

  Leonardo wrote the equivalent of 50-100 books...
  he must have loved his books, you know..

  Just had a quick go...seems like a fun game! Going to ignore the walkthroughs until I need them though! Which judging by my first attempt will be pretty soon.. :D
  
  Nice game anyway! :)

  Hi... I was almost to disconnect for sleep and I realised of the launchment of the game. Cool! So you finished it, Gab, at last.
  
  I've just viewed a part of it to find that my intro music has been shortened. I suppose it was a matter of memory, but it's fine. Tomorrow I'll see and play it deeply.

  So... Leonardo's lost last invention was... a pushbike?
  
  That guy was so far ahead of his time.

  March 2014 edited March 2014

  well actually there is some discussion on whether the bike sketch found on one of Leo's codes was infact authentic or it was added postumously
  http://www.cyclepublishing.com/history/leonardo%20da%20vinci%20bicycle.html
  
  as for the diving apparatus, he actually made a study on how to do that and recently some people built it based on his drawings. It actually worked pretty well
  http://www.bl.uk/onlinegallery/features/leonardo/diving.html
  
  there are hundreds of invention conceinved by the man
  http://www.da-vinci-inventions.com/
  
  However, the last lost invention I make reference in the title is another one you can see at the very end of the game...but that one is just a silly joke of mine
  
  
  well I am glad people is liking the game...i tried to make a different kind of AGD game especially for the 2nd level and the underwater part of lev 3
  
  :D

  yeah it took a while but there it is! hope you like this one (lev 2 and part of lev 3 were designed taking into serious consideration your comments on my previous AGD games...I tried to make something different)

  I saw the video yesterday and indeed it is a very good idea to set 3 different type of levels, which gives variety. I think its the first time that AGD produces a chase and race type of game, right? :)

  I think so...although I may be wrong
  anyway, stay tuned: next game I am making is even more novel (by AGD standards I mean) :D

  Hi I am working to a new game (tentatively called Donkey kong reloaded done better...i was not happy with the graophics of Donkey Kong Reloaded)
  and I thought it could be fun to open the project to the rest of the zx world
  
  so I put my in-progress folder inside the LLLI folder
  
  I am not very good at game design (my games are always too difficult...or so they say) so any suggestion will be highly appreciated
  
  :)

  it is always inside the LLLI folder...can anyone tell me if it works? in there you will find all the AGD files so you can see step by step until the most recent one (the game is not finished of course)
