Explore Snaily World, collect new abilities and weapons, discover secret passages, and save the snails!

CONTROLS - customizable
=========================
Arrow keys to move
Z to jump
X to shoot a weapon
C to shoot a weapon (and hold still)
M for map (you can use TAB, but it won't work in IE)
ESC or P for the menu (pause)

ABOUT THE GAME
=========================
Snailiad is an 8-bit-inspired game, which uses the NES palette most of the time, and uses NES music I wrote using Famitracker. I hope you enjoy it! :-) There's some references to eight-bit classics that helped inspire Snailiad, and you might also find a cameo or two from RPG Shooter: Starwish, if you play long enough.

Big thanks to:

AdamAtomic, for Flixel!
xdanond, for drawing some stuff!
newstarshipsmell, for lots of testing!
jsr, for Famitracker!

ABOUT SAVE DATA
=========================
Starting with Flash Player 10.3, Flash save data gets DELETED if you clear cookies or browser history. If you're having trouble with saves, this list might help:
1. Don't clear your cookies or history
2. Make sure the Flash Storage Settings say "Unlimited"
3. Make sure "private browsing" is OFF
4. Make sure "clear browser history on exit" is OFF
5. Make sure "block sites from setting any data" is OFF (for Chrome users)
6. Don't run a program that deletes stuff, like CCleaner or Better Privacy

FINDING 100% ITEMS
=========================
Once you defeat the final boss, you unlock the "radar"! The radar tells you how many items are left in the current area.

HIDDEN MODE
=========================
There's a hidden mode in Snailiad! Once you've unlocked it, it will be one of the choices in "NEW GAME", below EASY and NORMAL.

TROUBLESHOOTING
=========================
If you set your browser zoom below 100%, the bottom and right sides of the game will get cut off. Please make sure your zoom is at least 100%!

This is an extremely fun game :D. Here's a tip: you can get the high jump at the start of the game. With that, you can get the secret boomerang. It's really useful to get the speed runner achievement.

Can you release a sequel of Snailiad for the Super Nintendo?? And yeah, this is the most amazing game ever!! I love it!! And I beat the game, so I'm always playing it every day to prevent the erasing of progress. Moon Snail is the first final boss that I reach and defeat.

Everything about this is charming. I genuinely want to play this over a long period of time. The music is incredible. I have used Famitracker myself so I know how challenging it can be. You did a phenomenal job. Only way it could be better is if it were on a cart.

Good game ! But the jump is really annoying, I couldn't could jump diagonally...

auriplane responds:

Try changing your controls. It sounds like you have a keyboard lockout problem preventing you from pressing up, right, Z and X at the same time. Unfortunately, every keyboard is different, so all I can do is give you a way to change your controls :-( You can also try auto-fire mode, which makes it so you only have to press 3 keys at once.
