Played a couple and got 26,700 and made it to screen 23.

If I could only remember screen 23 with the polin, ball and root. Looks like I need some practice on this one. :|

28,150 great game for a little highscore-competition! The standard controller works fine with this game.

the "Current Highscore" list needs some work...

I'll have to play this one emulated, I've never come across this cart in the wild.

Screen 23 is easier to master if you walk the whole game left instead of right!
The balls are behind your kid instead of in front of the kid! My scores are lower than walking right until now, but I am able to master screen 23!

Going right I've gotten 70,250 on screen 61 which is has the 5 holes with fish and polin.

Going left I've gotten 57,150 on screen 52 which is the 5 blocks and the fire pit with the flying fire.

I'm getting close to my personal best, but just a little short. I do think going left is the best over all, but my score doesn't show that.

After posting the one above, It made me want to play. So.....

Going left I got 86,300 and made it to screen 82. This screen is the hardest one I've seen in the game.

Screen 82 has the 5 blocks and the fire pit with the flying fire, but they also added in polin, so you can't go to the 2nd to the last block to wait and time your jump over the fire making this screen a bitch.

This is weird! I started playing this emulated in Meka. For the first level I went right and then on the 2nd I went left. As I approached the brick sign to finish the level, I jumped and went past it. The level didn't end. I kept going left and it was like the level restarted but the timer was still down like I had been playing. I got killed soon after so I wasn't able to go through it again to see if it would end when I got to the brick sign again.

Anybody else ever experience this?

I tried that to. If you go right 10 screens then go left, you have to go to 30 screens to end the level which would be screen 20 the other way.

If you watch the screen counter at the bottom when you do this, then you will see it go from 1 to 10, then if you go the other way it will count them down to zero again and then start back up.

So to get very high on levels, you have to go in one direction.

It's the damn vine swinging that kills me every time. I can do it in Jungle Hunt with no problem but the momentum for the swing is so much less in this, I keep coming up short.

Sorry for the delay guys. I will get the next game up as soon as I get off of work. I had to work late last night and didn't get home until 10PM. Some fishing boat broke down, so of course they call the Coast Guard to tow them in, we don't charge.
