Surprised this old classic doesn't have an install http://hol.abime.net/1109

I think it was more popular on the Gameboy back in the day.

I think there's no install because there doesn't seem to be an IPF, or working extended ADF, available.

Nice.

Do you know if there was ever a release of Bumpy for Amiga? https://www.mobygames.com/game/atari-st/bumpy

I know the sequel Bumpy's Arcade Fantasy was released.

It is kinda of weird as you have Bumpy (1989) / Pop-Up (1990) / Bumpy's Arcade Fantasy (1992)

They are all basically the same game genre from Infogrames.

@dlfrsilver I think I may have found a game breaking bug in Pop-Up.

However I'm not sure if this is due to the crack or just lack of testing.

It seems that Level 51 can't be completed unless I'm missing something obvious.

The problem is this blue ball that needs to be picked up to make the exit appear

I've highlighted and circled it in red, If you pick it up you go straight into the spiked platform and die and there is no way to avoid this.

If you look at the Gameboy version of the same level you can see there is no item in the same location.

From memory, this game is not copy protected.

It seems the last level 99 is also broken.

There is an item in the start location that shouldn't be there which I've highlighted.

Also the exit appears in the wrong location which means you can't get to it.

Here are some pictures of level 99 from the Gameboy version
