This one reminds me a faster more open version of Lunar Jetman on steroids,it looks hard as heck Pola !!thanks for posting bruh !

[@Polaventris]

Ah yes, that's what the player sprite reminded me of.

[@TheHighlander71]

Never seen this. It's like Snokie meets Spaceman Splorf and they have tea at Jeff Minter's place.

[@Polaventris]

Totally!

[@Simon0]

and the guy from dropzone dropped in for some tea also.

[@Theshadowsnose]

The 'original' G-man is one of my favorite games on the C16. It's basically the same minus the shooting.

[@Polaventris]

So we can track flappy bird all the way down to C-16, interesting.

[@lactobacillusprime]

Wow a bit of a cross between Kanabalt and Nodes of Yeshod...

[@Polaventris]

Neat little game to stumble on. Would have liked this back in the day for sure.

[@BagoZonde]

Wow, nice one. I think I've played it but looks better when you're playing it :). Looks like you're getting better in games, Pola ;).

[@Polaventris]

Please stop spreading evil lies about me :P

[@BagoZonde]

​@@Polaventris No more lies!

[@bganonimouse2754]

Just dropped by to say hello and to watch a vid I hadn't seen. Hope you are doing well Pola :)

[@Polaventris]

All good, hope you are well aswell!

[@electricadventures]

Not a bad looking game and the scroll gets quite fast. You definitely need to have had a coffee before playing I think :) Might have to give this one a try.

[@Polaventris]

Interested to know if the game adds even more elements to the game on the later stages. Something to try with a trainer probably.

[@inphanta]

Scrappy implementation notwithstanding, this is a neat little idea for a game. This would work great on Pico-8 or even as a mobile game.

[@Polaventris]

Can totally see the connection between this game and flappy bird :D

[@antoniosangervasioproximac3170]

Fantastic the great sinthaylaze of every time

[@Polaventris]

Thanks for watching!

[@pacbilly]

This is proto-Canabalt.

[@Polaventris]

With shooting! Can't forget the shooty bits, although it is very poor indeed.

[@Shot97]

ha! I was getting feelings of Canabalt as well.

[@Lukozer]

Looks like a hybrid of Spaceman Splorf and the infamous Scout... Not sure that's a good thing.

[@Polaventris]

It looks good, it is fast scrolling and great music, that's quite a lot going for it already :P

[@Lukozer]

That's something I didn't think of... combining Spaceman Splorf and Scout could result in some of the greatest C64 music written!

[@LiquidBoogie]

Hey, have you tried Bandana City and They Stole A Million? Hope you will review them soon.

[@Polaventris]

Have not. I added them to the TODO list, although They Stole A Million looks a bit complex game to make a good video. We shall see.

[@LiquidBoogie]

@@Polaventris They Stole A Million has great music and is very innovative for its time, lets hope you can make one.

[@LastofAvari]

What an amazing game :) It runs fine, but I can't see anything too exciting about it. Kinda too primitive gameplay wise for 1987 IMO.

[@Polaventris]

True, gameplaywise it isn't very exciting at all, unless there are more gameplay changes at the later stages.

[@Simon0]

lol press down to go up. that makes sense.

[@Polaventris]

One can always wonder where the logic comes from...

[@WexMajor82]

FIRST! I had this one.

[@Polaventris]

Winner!

[@StRoRo]

What game was you meant to load

[@Polaventris]

Tried to load Super Huey 2.
