Manic Spaceman
Shaw Young has created this impressive retro update of Manic Miner called Manic Spaceman. The game was created for a competition with his friends over who could create the best Manic Miner update within 8 weeks. Shaw created his entry using canvas.

I always wanted you to go in to Space man
As with all the retro classics, the game chucks you in at the deep end of the difficulty scale. Use the cursors to move left and right and the space bar to jump!

It is tricky, but you need to jump up and then move across to the right.

Cheers for the link! It is hard; I’ve tried to stay faithful to the original Manic Miner which was punch-your-screen-in-the-face hard! There’s a total of 5 levels, including a bonus “night mode” level (level 4 i think?) I’ve posted a bunch of articles (which i’m about half way through finishing!) on my blog detailing the code behind the game if anyones interested..

This is the best HTML5 sci-fi version of Manic Miner I’ve played in almost as long as I can remember.
