Cauldron - Scare Attack
A downloadable game for Windows
As Halloween approaches, King Punglekin has decided to take control and has rallied the denizens of the night to his cause. Only The Hag can stop him by scaring them all into submission with her witch's magic and defeating Punglekin.
Based on Palace Software's classic 8-bit game Cauldron, "Cauldron - Scare Attack" is a single level score attack for Windows.
Try to beat your highest score! You can take unlimited hits, but each time you do, your score will decrease, so be careful.
Along the way you can collect crystal balls to power up your magic, and bonus items to push your scare score to the limit!
Control is cursors and left ctrl, or controller.
The game is based on Cauldron by Steve Brown, Tony Barber and Simon Dunstan, and Cauldron II by Steve Brown, Richard Leinfellner and Richard Joseph, both released by Palace Software.

Excellent game! Love the use of the Cauldron graphics and it plays really well as a shmup :D Also love that it saves your high scare. 3444 is my best so far, but will try to improve.
Looks like my kinda thing🎃👾
I will test the game as soon as I can. I love the original (Cauldron 1 and 2), for zx spectrum. Can I take your png file -human made-no ai? I am interested in this initiative. For the last, Thank you for sharing your work with all of us.
Yes, please feel free to reuse the Human Made badge wherever you want.
It's yours or do you take from other place?, have a license or similar? I want to show my material is made without IA, to show a grade of craftsmanship about this... how CARE we put in a thing. I hope you understand my point. (I'm not an English native so, I try to explain the better I can). More in the case of this, because is an IDEAL or a POLITICAL POINT OF VIEW OF SOME KIND (MADE BY HUMAN HANDS).
