Summary

  • Adam Saltsman, the developer of Canabalt and publisher of Tunic, has created a new game in the form of a “mash-up” of Prince of Persia and Wolfenstein.
  • Titled Prince Of Prussia, the game is available to download for free on itch.io.
  • The game is built on the PICO-8 game engine, and features 15 levels in which the player must jump over gaps and kill Nazis by strolling up behind them once they’ve got a knife.
  • Each level is shown on one screen, with a fog of war effect used rather than requiring players to transition between separate screens, as was the case in the original Prince of Persia.
  • Saltsman has previously created a range of games on itch.io, including free tilesets and more unusual titles such as leftfield sokobans and “bandit accountancy” games.
