OpenHCL

OpenHCL is an open source recreation of E. (Buster) Hashimoto's freeware game, Hydra Castle Labyrinth. In this Metroidvania-style fantasy platformer, the hero is tasked with recovering the stolen crown from the evil Hydra's castle. Battling through eight dungeons, the player collects items to solve puzzles, obtain new abilities and reach new areas.
