I loved playing this when I was little. I still remember getting the CU Amiga issue that had this game on the coverdisk. I think Pod was on the same disk. Between them kept me happy for hours.

Great score.
The thing which I noticed was the coder is Ron Picket Weeserik - the same guy as Silkworm and The Sales Curve fame. A very polished product from him. |

Yes - I believe this is a direct copy of his first game, Fuzzball, on the MSX, too (no relation to the Amiga game from System 3). This is a very well presented effort as you'd expect from a coder with a CV like his.
Another go and when the level counter gets into double figures, it really starts to get hairy. 218,300 |

Beginning to get the hang of this, the first time I got past level 6 I got all the way to level 11.

Never was much into Q*Bert, so this is a token score. |

Got lucky and made it past 100k. Maybe I'll try my luck tomorrow... or maybe I'll eat my controller and wash it down with a beer |

Quite a fun game, though it can be quite a mental challenge at times
