La Mulana, a challenging free-form platformer in ancient Mayan ruins, is now available on GOG.com for only $9.99. That's 33% off the regular price until Thursday, October 11 at 10:59 AM GMT.

The ancient Mayan city of La-Mulana is said to hold innumerous secrets. The mysterious tribe guarding it from the outside world claims that the ancient knowledge locked within the forgotten tombs holds the key to understanding the purpose and origin of life itself. A daring young archeologist by the name of Lameza Kosugi--an Indiana Jones lookalike with Japanese roots--takes on the quest to unravel the mystery of the foreboding ruins. With his trusty whip (standard archeology-issue) and a vintage "Mobile Super X" laptop, he ventures into the unknown. Some say that he might be the chosen one. Otherwise the tribe of protectors wouldn't let him go anywhere near the ruins. True question remains: does he really have what it takes to face the treacherous traps, menacing monsters, and gigantic guardians of La-Mulana?

The original low-res version of La Mulana met with critical acclaim as one of the most difficult and elaborate indie platformers of the 2000s. Its high-res remake delivers the same challenge and scale but this time with colorful pixel-art graphics your eyes can feast upon. Gamers worldwide fell in love with La-Mulana's free-form archeological action/exploration gameplay. Now it's your turn to put on an adventurer's hat, grab that handy whip, and set off for the huge Mayan ruins, that hold the secret of the origin of life on Earth. Don't miss out on one of the greatest challenges for the fans of platformer genre!

Search every corner of the ancient ruins, reach seemingly unreachable platforms, and defeat many fearsome guardians to uncover the secret of La Mulana, for the launch promo price of only $9.99!
Instabought, thanks GOG and NIGORO!
I can only use the classical Czech interjection in this case:

jéééééééééééé :)
Hey I just bought this from playism last week. Pretty sneaky, GOG. Will buy again from here anyway since it's a great game.

It's not "high-res", it's "high-colour". ;)

The Many demands the termination of this exchange. We regret any inconvenience.
Guess it was inevitable ... Ah well. Plenty of good releases recently, so I'm not disappointed.
No for now, I guess. No idea.

I dunno why, but my first thought when I saw the screenshots was "Amiga AGA". It does look an awful lot like late-gen Amiga 1200 games.

Anyway, instabought.

The original version was very 8-bit computer looking. This is definitely more 16-bit looking (actually I'd say even more colours than that). I think it is a bit higher res than the original, but not by much so it was a bit of a weird thing for GOG to say.
Ha ha! :D

Something called "mula" in Spanish (at least in my country) is literally "mule" or something that's "lame". Let us hope this isn't the case for this game! :P

As opposed to lost arks or temples of doom?
