Are you ever going to sort out that beam?

The beam can’t be switched off so the game can’t be finished.
And the “pokes” don’t work.

Update needed

Loved this game as a kid brings back memories playing it again . Controls are a bit slow could do with new update to fix bugs etc.

Gonna give you some terrible thrills

Fun, retro game! Would love to see the other Rocky Horror game put on here!

Impossible

It's looks and feels great but it's physically impossible to get past the beam - the timer is too short. Have compared it with YouTube videos of the original and they have a fraction of a second longer to do it. A Shame really. Would have been 5 stars.
