The soundtrack is so random! there are about 3 well known tunes just being butchered in no particular order, seems like an interesting game but nothing fantastic, i still like this system though
I would have swore up and down this was going to be boulder dash. Until you sussed it out to be pengo and not a bas pengo clone at that. Horendous instructions!
@UKRetroGames I know exactly what you mean. I think it's down to a lack of support from major developers. And that vicious circle, games sell the machines, but without a big userbase, the developers won't make the games. The market was saturated with computers, and the MTX was too expensive, so it all went no-where. Such a pity.
The game in the next (last) video is probably the best, and definitely my fave.
@SteveBenway I have decided that I don't care to watch your game videos. Mainly because I laugh so much that I have to watch them over and over! LOL How am I supposed to get anything done? Ok I'm going to watch just one more time then stop! Great Stuff my friend!
oh look, it's 1.30am... must be time for another video from Steve. :P
I'll be honest, this looks bloody frustrating. It's the kind of game I'd get really annoyed with after 30 seconds, turn it off & never play it again, lol.
@a3HeadedMonkey as a night dweller, i love seeing new videos from Steve pop up at 2AM :) Otherwise, I have to start digging for my systems for a fix, and that means i have to find the matching midi-cable-turned-composite-cable and power for the system. A fan from the beginning, Jayson :)
Blimey It's a Pengo variant. :)

Why was there Sonic and Barney music in the game. What drugs were they on whilst making this?

It's a rather fucked up clone of Mr "Daring" Do in the Arcade and on the AMIGA.

5:45 - tell YouTube that!!! ;)
Anyway: looks like a decent little game when you get the hang of it.
To: "win", you had to line those 3 squares up, presumably touching one another.
Maybe it was just because you were new to it but the controls *seemed* clunky to me.
Good SWILL! :D

From seeing this now... total Pengo clone, not bad but not good really.
I guess they didn't have enough in the game budget to but C's in the game instructions eh Steve, haha!

There seems to be a lot of ripping off other games with this system. The pirate among home-computers!

Nice little soundtrack this game has- I have to wonder if it would get wearing after a while, though. Great video, as usual, Steve :')
