Wabbit

[Gurner]

A frustrating but challenging game.

 

But was a PAL version ever made for this? Would like to play it on Harmony / real hardware!

Wabbit could have been so good but unfortunately becomes unplayably hard way too early on.

I wonder if the code could be tweaked to slow it down a bit?
