Bank

Bank is a block-pushing puzzle game. In each level, you collect every money bag to activate the key, then collect the key to finish the level and move on.

Bombs and obstacles

Some money bags contain bombs; collecting one gives you the number of bombs shown. You can push bombs, and drop collected bombs, which light and detonate after a few seconds. Each bomb’s number shows how many tiles it blasts in each of the four cardinal directions. Standing in a blast square kills you, while a blast that reaches another bomb lights it too.

The levels include several obstacles and hazards:

• Push-blocks: can be moved, stop bomb blasts and block enemy shots.
• Bricks: block your path and can be destroyed with bombs.
• Trees: cannot be destroyed, but bomb blasts pass through them.
• Stone: cannot be destroyed and stops bomb blasts.
• Heavy water: cannot be crossed on foot. A bomb pushed into it floats and can be walked on, but sinks after some time.
• Guns: fire in the four cardinal directions, shooting through trees but not bricks, stone or push-blocks. Bombs cannot destroy them.
• Sentries: turn left when they hit a wall. Bombs cannot destroy them, but stop them from moving.

Editor and console

A built-in editor lets you change any aspect of the game, including levels, sprites, sounds and code. It is an editor for NuMo9, the fantasy console the game runs on, rather than an editor made only for Bank. NuMo9 was designed to use LuaJIT as much as possible and targets hardware from the 90s and the SNES era.
