What's the deal with this game, and why is it in Pizza Tower? Is it public domain now?

That is how platform games are when the developer works around limitations of the computers of the era

Not just Euro games but American ones as well. It's just how Westoid platformers are

Westerners can't figure out 2D platformers but Japanese outside Nintendo can't figure out 3D platformers.

Cute little guy. Should've get more games, I loved the NES version. Maybe it's time for a sequel

strangely this is one of the best "offbrand" platformers. they actually had some understanding of what made levels interesting, and they put a lot of secrets in it.

>Karl Fitzhugh, the Product Manager of the Amiga version of the Alfred Chicken video game, ran as the Alfred Chicken Party candidate in the 1993 Christchurch, Dorset by-election. The exercise was done to promote the original game's release. Fitzhugh finished second last with 18 votes, two votes ahead of the Rainbow Party candidate.[4]

They REALLY wanted to make it big. They've fought to the end but to no avail. Sad.

The Playstation version had amazing music. Also, it's the only version that doesn't feel like Amiga eurojank.
