"This is the story of Genesis and the firewalker. While the latter is somewhat familiar, the former is completely mysterious to me. All I could find around Spelunkia was a bunch of insane rumors."
"Some say it is an advanced creature with power over camels and backgrounds. Others think of it as some sort of spirit who grants wishes and rewards. However, one of elders believes it is a monster from another dimension. A cunning beast that can manipulate others, change its shape and even evolve!"
"All of this made me even more curious. I searched and searched until arriving upon an strange cave above the northern mines. It was risky but I couldn't stop myself. Had to know what Genesis really is. So I went in..."

FOUR IMPORTANT NOTES
1) I truly apologize for the numerous arrow traps at the start of many levels. I had to use them to control random level elements.
2) Please note that this story has nothing to do with religious Genesis and is simply a name for this level pack (Love the console though).
3) There are 3 types of dialogue shown via signs: From the player (No quotes), from Genesis and from the other one (Both in "quotes").
4) The pack relies a lot on music, sound cues and other similar elements. So please play with sound & music if you can.

ABOUT THE LEVEL PACK
- Theme: Inspired by the sublime Super Metroid, this pack has very little combat and is more about exploration, puzzles and challenges.
- Difficulty: I'd say medium. Overall, it is relatively easier than Ultimate Weapon. A lot of puzzles (No push block ones though).
- Levels: This pack goes from 1-1 to 5-4. (Though many of them are short and/or story related. Plus 3 normal stages are skipped).
- Checkpoints: Due to the nature of most levels, I couldn't use too many checkpoints like the Ultimate Weapon but there are helpers.
- History: I started working on this pack around the final stages of "The Ultimate Weapon". It should be more cohesive and focused.
