If you adore platform games and love the Megaman series, then this game would definitely please you.<\/p>\n<p>Your little blue protagonist can easily fire at enemies or blast away breakable walls with the help of his laser gun. By breaking away certain walls, you can discover other hidden passages to use. Other abilities include rocket jumping over hot molten lava.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s possible to obtain ammunition or increase health by keeping an eye out for treaseure chests.\u00a0Your ammunition does get replenished automatically\u00a0but it will take time.\u00a0Something that might become a constraint when enemies are right around the corner.\u00a0Grabbing at the little green orbs that you&#8217;ll come across can also help improve the health status.<\/p>\n<p>Also, don&#8217;t expect this game to be forgiving. It is relatively short but it is quite difficult to beat. Luckily, you can save the game everytime you see a green block on the ceiling. All you have to do is shoot at it in order to save your status.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nRelated Links:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-20\/?action=preview&amp;uid=4178\" target=\"_blank\">Singlehandedly on Ludlum Dare Website<\/a><br \/>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/indiegames.com\/2011\/05\/freeware_game_pick_singlehandedly_jacob_pavone.html#more\" target=\"_blank\">Singlehandedly on IndieGames Website<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"frost-3269963839\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_98517--placement_102160\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9536139424546116\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9536139424546116\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5501023798\" \ndata-ad-format=\"autorelaxed\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another Ludlum Dare entry, Singlehandedly is a cool platformer that was done in the vein of Megaman.
