From that lovely release thing I do.
RTS game. You play the role of forest animals whom are tasked with stopping some big, orange Totoro looking monster. The Stylus will be in heavy use since you can literally control armies of beavers, coons, and squirrels. Beavers Vs Squirrels?? I hope this comes out over here!

No idea what to do in this game, I've managed to shake a squirrel out of a tree and now I can control it but thats it. Does seem good though.

This game looks cute! Battling cute little colorful animals? Strategy game? Definitely gonna have to play this one.

Just look at the number of moving sprites on-screen and you know this game rock a lot

Love artwork and how it looks, but I *hate* strategy games!

Maybe I'll give it a try...

It is about how to be environmentally friendly. Save the world while gaming!
WWF gets a portion of the profit.

Small ROM size. I'm surprised.

Small ROM size. I'm surprised.

It's a well-known programming fact that squirrels and otters are only 1kb each.
That’s also why you can get so many on screen.

if thats the case, the main character makes up at least 1MB. he is a fatty

I think they used FAT32 Zip compression on him, to get him under 600kbs
