That commercial with the kid selling peanut batter with a red hat seems prophetic now... (from your page)

Guess I need to give Hoi another round... I only had a demo version back in the day and the single hit death aspect of it really drove me bonkers so I never got the actual full game. I'm only going to be 25 years late.

Haha, yeah, back in 1991 we made the mistake of giving our game testers the option to replenish lives by pressing a function key.

In hindsight we should have offered unlimited lives in the original release as well. The Hoi AGA Remix has that option.

I always wanted to play this game when I was a kid. I just watched a video of it on youtube and I definitely am going to try it out. It looks like good fun alright. I also looked for the last level. Pure crazy but I like it!

Thanks! I hope you enjoy the rest of the game too. It's a lot of trial and error, but the unlimited lives option of the AGA Remix should keep you going.

When we made the game we were still young and inexperienced. Everything (gameplay, scrolling, graphics and audio) was improved in the unofficial sequel: Moon Child.
