New stuff

- New Game Plus added to the game - New sidequest (only available on new game plus) - You can now skip the game intro - Some quality of life tweaks here and there - Fixed a bug that caused high level monster to appear in the spring factory entrance for lower difficulties - Fixed a moving platform in the spring factory area

How do I start a new game+?

once you beat the game, you can restart any saved game as new game plus. Your weapons, powerups and maps will be preserved so you can keep growing stronger!

How do I enter the new sidequest zone?

Once you start a new game plus, play as normal until you reach Treasure Island I. Go to the leftmost part of the island and a new building will be there. Inside you'll start your trip to the new area.

Trapers Platformer is a prequel to a never finished project of mine, Traper Tournament (2001), a (J)RPG featuring Tortuga as the main character. Coming soon, I swear!
But the first title in the series dates back to 2000. Trapers was what we could call today a boomer shooter (doom-like back in the day)
The first game already featured the terrible hand drawn, graph paper style the series is built around. The name comes from a southern Spanish slang referring to something that is poorly made.
Alas, the latest source code was lost long ago, and current builds are not playable on modern systems. May it be time for a remaster perhaps?

Hi there! This is not a content update, but a little fixes and tweaks update based on your feedback. Main changes include: - Easy difficulty is now the default option for New Game - Sound volume halved by default on first run - Coin count shows up whenever you pick up coins - First level rats aren't 5x as powerful as the orcs anymore! - The forest boss fight can now be defeated with the base sword (you used to need at least one sword upgrade) - Lots of small dialogue placement tweaks This update includes a lot of little fixes which I believe would be nice to have before the next big update (NG+ and the new NG+ dungeon). Let me know if any bug slipped in, and thanks for your support!

Difficulty Settings Update is here!

Hello there! This update brings difficulty options to Trapers Platformer! The game is supposed to be challenging indeed, but if the bosses or jumps get too infuriating for you, there are not one, but TWO easier game modes to try! And if you are into suffering and pain there's a harder game mode too! Yay! So if you got frustrated in the past, don't be ashamed to start over and enjoy the charming story behind Trapers Platformer. The difficulty selection screen is available when you start a new game, and your existing saves will be labelled as "classic" difficulty.

So what's next?

V1.4.0 Will be the last content update, and will feature the long awaited new game+! Keep an eye on the news for updates on this matter ;)

Hey! I Found a bug!

Something not working as expected? Or perhaps you still find the game too hard? Don't be afraid to report whatever you find! Your feedback makes the game better.

Hi there! This version is a bunch of small tweaks and fixes ahead on the next big one. Some things include: - The first boss was still moving during pause - Some graphical glitches here and there - Better background contrast in the cursed tower - Added a save point right after the first boss - Starting a new game after playing an existing one was carrying playtime and coins!
