I own SanctuaryRPG (& Black Edition), very well done, beautiful game. Just downloaded Proto Raider and excited to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.
Currently working on Servo for MegaZeux, I hope to complete it by the middle of 2015? Who knows...

Proto Raider is clever but it's one button control (like a phone game), space to jump, is a little bit of a downer. If rather have full control. But that's not really the genre this was intended to be I guess.

Also, it's only ascii in look. In play, it's smooth movement and has some weird trail effect behind the player.

Overall it's worth it's price (less than a cup of coffee) and is fun and has cool levels, but I wish it could have been a little more true to the graphical style and given the player a little more to do.
