Press Kit - Pedra Crystal Caves

Pedra Crystal Caves is a 'just one more go' puzzle platformer challenging you to rewire your brain when navigating each level searching for the key tiles that open the exit door.

Inspired by classic retro games such as Boulderdash, Spindizzy and Bounder, this puzzler will keep you entertained for hours with its hand-crafted levels that increase in difficulty as you progress.

Features

Special bonus tiles to earn Crystals which can be redeemed to upgrade your player block.
Upgrades include painting on multiple sides, double-radius painting and glass/bomb-block painting as well as a range of other stylistic goodies to choose from.
Gain temporary upgrades such as speed-up, paint all rows/columns, timer delay and Pompeii (yeah, it destroys everything) by painting the upgrade tiles scattered throughout each cave.

But it's not all nice and easy - lurking in the caves are the 'Meanies' - Pushers, Growers and Stingers - bad guys that are out to get you. They will stomp on you, push you around, block your path and literally fry you to death.

Take on the challenge of completing each cave as a solo player or split-screen local co-op for a Battle Royale experience.

About Tucasoft

Tucasoft is an indie studio consisting of just a solitary solo developer - Ian Weeks - developing Pedra Crystal Caves completely on his own.

Ian has been coding his entire professional life - mainly in a corporate setting - and grew up in the creative heady days of 8-bit computers - Commodore's VIC-20 and C-64 were his gaming tool of choice before moving on up to the beast that was the Commodore Amiga.

Ian's love of those early platforms with their focus on gameplay-heavy classics informs and directs the kind of games he makes.

After taking a somewhat crazy left-turn in life and attending drama school in New York City, studying all aspects of filmmaking while making several short and feature length films - Ian settled into a software engineering career writing business systems for top corporations around the world by day and developing games by night.

Ian lives in Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, with his family.
