About

Nebulus (also known as Tower Toppler) looks like a simple platform game, but it is a real achievement for the time of its first release (1987). The game's representation technique is relatively revolutionary as it uses 'rotating scrolling' graphics. This means that the camera stays on the character while he moves around the column. The aim of the game is to climb towers in the given time to destroy them. Of course, a number of enemies and traps will block the character's path. Expect to encounter a fairly high difficulty on the first level. When the character is hit, he does not die but he goes down one floor. He only dies if he falls into the water.
