Ledge Man

Ledge Man is a 1-player arcade platformer for the BBC Micro.

After Ledge Man arrives home from the village auction with his bargain of the day, a Victorian bureau, he discovers a map in a dusty drawer. The map gives directions to a hidden cave where precious stones can be gathered in abundance. The map warns of perilous guardians, including: sentient barrels, meteor storms, and wandering nasties. Armed with his trusty umbrella, Ledge Man sets off to gather the treasure.

Ledge Man can jump, move left and right, and climb up and down ladders. He must jump between platforms, trying to collect all the flashing gems on each stage. Conveyor belts and moving platforms add to the difficulty. The umbrella can help him safely fall long distances. The player has limited time to complete each level, and starts with three lives. There are a total of eight stages, and three difficulty levels.
