Ready Player One

Hey there! I was looking for a game I played when I was a child back on the 90's or maybe the early 2000's and I find your game! Its the only one that' is really really close the the one I remember, could it be that your inspiration was this game? It's not boulderdash nor Emerald mines nor crystal caves... enemies were just like the ones in your game, also remember this green slime that grows... help me remember please!
