Alex The Kid

You guide Alex through a series of single-screen levels. The main goal is to collect every diamond scattered around before you can exit. You move with the arrow keys and use the space bar to shoot, which is essential for dealing with the enemies that patrol the platforms. The levels are compact puzzles; you often have to time your jumps between moving hazards or lure an enemy into a trap with a well-placed shot. The pacing is quick, and a single mistake can send you back to the start of the level, which keeps you focused. It feels like a test of precision and patience, where each small victory is earned.
