Looks like an alright game. Out of all cartoons I think Road Runner is the best concept to licence as a computer game. Of course, Tom and Jerry, too (although I didn't come across a good tie-in game for them).
I like the fast-playing classical tunes they used in the game that give it that cartoony feel, like The Russian Dance in the first stage, The William Tell Overture in the third one, and The Flight of the Bumblebee in the forth. But what's the name of the tune in the second stage? It sounds like the music they play while spinning dishes on poles at the circus. :)

most anoyying game ever. These games would wind me up as a kid. I'm convinced some of these video games can actually effec kids behaviour back in the day as they were so anoyying when you lost. It used to enrage me when i lost.
good version, looks hard.. you should play the arcade version with an emulator for a greater challenge.. would have been nice to see the rest of the levels.. also, there's no bridge after the cliffs,they left that out.. oh well.. anyways, you should use the lemonades more. wile can drink them, and it slows him down. you could get a lot more bonus points.. good game
I always thought those speckled bird seeds were spiked with iron file or something, because every time I would eat one of those Wile E. would come after me with his friggin' magnet!
Had a lot of fun with this as a kid but it's a shame they don't show the cartoons anymore. Probably said it was too violent for kids or some crap. Two questions:
1) How did you get 22 lives?
2) How come there's two types of seed? Don't remember that.
Maybe them seeds are the ones you have to get and you can miss the others.
Anyway, well played! The only thing I was disappointed with was the shit ending. There should have been a pic of Road Runner like the Amiga/arcade versions but I suppose they ran out of time or memory.

I have a lovely copy of this on disk which I got from the brilliant retro games purchasers paradise eBay lol, it is fully complete too with the instructions etc, and the clam shell plastic case opens/closes nicely as if it had only been manufactured just yesterday :-D Nice playing there dude, looks a bit like hard work though :)
I played this game in the arcade quite a bit so as you can imagine, I was very happy to get the c64 conversion. I loved it although as I only had a tape deck (not a disc drive) at the time, the loading was a nightmare!!!! Still loved it though. =)
Yeah, I know. Unless you had a certain switch plugged into the user port that kept the game in memory, it was one game, rewind & reload. I loved it for the crisp graphics at the time.
I used to play this game religiously in the arcade. Surprisingly, the c64 version looks very close to the original- right down to the music. I wish I had owned it. C64 needs to be on the virtual console!!

Really a great game! Funny yet fitting music, easy to play, gets more challenging as you advance thru the levels... and VERY addictive!
