About the Game

Toast the Ghost is a retro platformer, with elements of many classic platformers combined into one crazy adventure!

Suitable for all ages, guide your hero through each round, using your ghost smashing toast, the toaster, and wall jumping skills to get the highest score you can.

Full playing instructions are included in the game, but the basics are:
Collect the 8 floating ghosts
Get them to the toaster
Toast any enemy ghosts in your way
Get to the exit door

The aim is to toast every Ghost in the fastest time possible and get to the level exit. The faster you go, the higher the score!

Each level awards a gold, silver or bronze medal depending on your score. You can only unlock the next level with Silver or Gold medals.

Controls:
Keyboard: AWSD (left/up/down/right), G to jump/select, H to fire, Esc for the restart menu
Controller: left stick to move, A to jump/select, B to fire, Start for the restart menu

There are 3 modes of play in Toast the Ghost:

Original
There are 20 rounds of play on Original mode to try your hand at unlocking. You can play any unlocked round as many times as you like to try and improve your score. During a round, you can chose to restart if things aren't going your way.

Black label
In this mode, you have to complete 6 rounds back-to-back without any health replenishment. You can't restart a round on this mode.

Red label
The hardcore mode, complete all 20 rounds, with only one chance to replenish health on round 10, again, you can't restart a round on this mode.
