(Clockwerx)

Clockwerx is a puzzle game by Callisto and Takuma Shoten. The game field is composed of gray dots and the player's avatar is a small walking character going clockwise around one of them, like the hands of a clock. The goal of the game is to maneuver our spinning hero and reach the level's exit, symbolized by a small flashing dot, the 'goal dot'. Our character is however 'glued' to the starting dot and never stops moving, or rotating, around it. Pressing one of the action button changes the rotation direction, and one button gets our character to jump to the nearest dot. Obstacles, such as colored rotating arrows and other hazards, are scattered around every stage and some can instantly kill the player.
