Spectrum hero Horace comes to Windows in his biggest adventure yet.  Featuring updated remakes of his classic adventures plus a whole lot more!  Challenges Horace must face this time include:

Hungry Horace - The original game expanded with lots more mazes

Horace Goes Skiing - Remaking Horace's classic adventure with two extra slopes and many more hazards

Horace and the Spiders - Remake of the Spectrum version in HD

Horace gets Festive - A new adventure for Horace featuring three mini-games based on arcade classics

Horace on the Moon - Another new outing for Horace with three more mini-games based on well known Spectrum titles

Fast Food Horace - even more mini-games where Horace  makes an appearance in classic games of yesteryear.

Horace to the Rescue - A big finale where Horace 's goal is to be reunited with the love of his life, Doris.

Horace Conga - An unlockable bonus game where you compete for a high score

Each of the main six games  must be completed three times, with new mini-games included and     the level of difficulty going up on each play. Once  all six games have been completed three times, the final level, Horace to the Rescue, will  unlock giving you the change to save Doris and complete the adventure.

Completing each of the six games once will unlock the bonus game, Horace Conga, which you can then play at any time.

The utterly Splendid adventures of Horace was coded, and has graphics by Richard Langford. The music is by Ricardo Vieira.

Horace was a fairly complicated game for one person to code what with the number of completely different mini games. While it has been playtested as much as possible it's likely that some bugs may still  get through the net. Please report any issues you find in the comments and I'll do my best to sort them out.

I also have gameplay up for Horace Goes Skiing, and damn, that third level was tough! Somehow, I did beat it, though! :)


Excellent fun! And I've got through most of the games in this collection, but that third level on the moon... GAH! Even if I can get to the Space Invaders bit, there's no bases to hide behind, so one shot from them and the wrong time, and I'm dead. Must've been playing that level for almost 2hrs and not cracking it!

I have every confidence that you'll beat it in the end! Glad you're enjoying the game.

Thanks, and I'll keep trying :)

I've only briefly played, but found it enjoyable. I started on Spiders, because that's always been my favourite, then Skiing, they both seemed quite "authentic". On the moon was quite fun (Jet Pac). I'm looking forward to the others.
