Tempest Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Sure. I'd be interested in an 8-bit version too actually since Popeye is one of my favorite games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cafeman Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Very nice title screen, and nice graphical improvement to Brutus and Sea Hag . Brutusk's visuals are night-and-day better than the original 5200 graphics. I played on an emulator so didn't notice the control tweaks.

Tempest Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Will there be a 8-bit version of this? The controls aren't as bad on the 8-bit but the updated graphics are nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Mo Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) When I was at Namco Networks we licensed this game for mobile. The game ran in an original mode, which looked just like the arcade, and then we had an advanced mode with more detailed graphics and a few newly designed levels, including one based on the Popeye cartoon "A Dream Walking". You can see what the game looked like here (I set the video link to open at the beginning of the "A Dream Walking" stage link to image): LINK TO VIDEO. You can scrub back to see more of it. Sorry for the stupid music the video maker laid over it. To the final stage (The Black Barnacle: link to image) in Advanced mode we added the early Popeye character of Bernice the Whiffle Hen seated atop one of the masts as a power-up. Eugene the Jeep also appeared in one level. Edited July 1, 2015 by Big_Mo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
