Climber 5
Climber 5 is a homebrew game by Dennis Debro, a port of an Atari 8-bit computer game. In Climber 5 you play the role of a baseball player. A baseball has been hit into the upper girders of a building under construction. Your job is to climb the ladders and retrieve the ball. Of course, there are obstacles along the way that you need to avoid, or you lose a life and must restart at the bottom right. After successfully retrieving the ball, the level changes and becomes more difficult.
Climber 5 features three game modes: Original, Normal, and Advanced. In Original mode, the game closely mimics the original Atari 8-bit version. In Normal mode, ladder positions and girder movements are randomized. You also have a timer counting down and must reach the baseball before time runs out. The Advanced option is similar to Normal but adds falling obstacles. Some obstacles are harmful, while the player is rewarded for retrieving others.
