Huzzah, another for the $2 bargain bin!

I seriously don't get it; How can games like *this* get published, when literally nobody will buy it, yet the Motocross game that the publishers pulled the plug on didn't make it through?

Seriously, game makers need game testers. Badly. And if they already have game testers, fire them, and hire me. I'll tell them when they suck

Looks like a good jump n run game. Nice copper backgrounds, nice graphics.
Hope it plays good. The POSTMAn PAT games on C64 and AMIGA were absoloute crap. But ALTERNATIVE games was one of my favourite low budged labels.

Postman Pat and his black and white cat,
Early in the morning,
Just as day is dawning,
He picks up all the post bags in his van.

They really should put a warning sticker on the cover of this one reading "Warning! Playing this can turn you into a drooling idiot!" Even for a kids game, the platform-parts are so stupidly simple and slow-tempoed that even a zombie would find them offending. Otherwise, no comment. *Goes back to playing this*

It is always about the bottom line. Im sure a game such as this had a very small team and cost under 100k to make. Even if they sell 15,000 copies at 20 thats 300,000. While the motocross game would have had a staff of 10 programming nerds requiring lots of snacks and video game breaks. Plus artists, musicians, a whole QA staff (as if that every does anything), etc, etc. and would have likely cost 5-30 million to make. So, blame lies with the asshole publishers. Oh, btw I want my Thief 4 dammit
