SaltaCol - Online Flash Game

SaltaCol - Online Flash Game

SaltaCol is one of those unique games that only Europe can produce. Personally I feel a strong influence by European animation schools, their unique drawing style and innovative concepts.

The intro music is great - just gives the game that style and atmosphere it needs. Similar feeling has been established in Waking Life - the movie.

SaltaCol is a bit hard to play at first, probably because it's so different from anything that we've seen so far. As you get used to the gameplay and start to discover all the tricks and tactics the game starts to become an addiction. "I just wanna go to the next level".

La Planete Sauvage

Tip: Go and rent a french animated movie called 'Le Planete Sauvage' (english: Fantastic Planet).

Language: French (Subtitled English)
Runtime: 72m minutes
Year: 1973

As some have noted, the Savage Planet is a movie about some social issues disguised as a sci-fi story about
two humanoid races of different sizes (one about 100
times bigger than the other) coexisting in a planet.

What I appreciated in this masterpiece was the originality of ideas and lovely palette of sound effects and French-style analogue synthesizer music.

I won't give any jewels away because you just have to see it.

HOW TO PLAY

You must guide the Saltacol through five lethal caves in order to find his couple.

Move it using click-and-drag. If you wait a moment, you will see the course. Fallings doesn't kill, but enemies do. There are unlimited lives.

There is a lever in every cave: you must reach it to exit.

At the end of every cave you will receive a password ('el código de la siguiente fase es...'). It will let you to access directly to that cave in future chances.

A word from the creator of SaltaCol

Alberto Viñuela: "It begun when I tried to do an equation system in flash in order to make a tai-chi puppet, but I just concluded that with more than two articulations were impossible to do without a complex neuronal network and a BIG training. So I explored the possibilities and inspiration came... the more close reference in game-style is a Spanish 8-bit game called "bugaboo" from the 80s... but saltacol is by far more playable.

And... YES, I'm much influenced and I'm addicted to all east-Europe animation style and experimental films, from Zbigniew Rybczynski to Jan Svankmajer, the occasional works from Roland Toper, Borivoj Dovnikovic, Dusan Makavejev (I love "Sweet Movie"), Jiri Trnka..."
