Could easily have been a 1:1 arcade conversion. Too bad they didn't do it. The thing that's the worst about this port is the frame rate; it's soooo low. On a standard Amiga 500, it runs at 12.5fps, which is a 4th of the standard 50fps. So, it runs slow and very choppy/jerky. On an Amiga 1200 it runs much faster, too fast; no extra frames added though, just sped up, which makes the choppy/jerky scrolling smoother, but not OK when the game runs too fast. Thanks to the power of WinUAE I made it run somewhere in between. He runs a bit faster than the arcade version, but it's a bit smoother and not as slow as on a A500.

00:46 - Moved the 3rd hydrant and got the blue hat, which makes me immune to the tiny ghosts that drop/falls from the planes.

01:18 - Moved the third cactus and got a pill that makes me invincible for the rest of the level.

02:35 - Moved the second cactus and got an extra life after I captured the thingy.

12:20 - I killed myself on the last level to show what that looks like.

The game has no ending and just restarts from level 1, so I killed myself and added the high-score there instead. -
