DESCRIPTION
The player must move around the playfield and clear it of baby chicks while avoiding enemies. The baby chicks are freed by cracking open their eggs and then kicking them off the screen.
GAME PLAY
Eggs take 3 hits each to fully hatch, with hits being achieved by kicking the eggs off the walls or other eggs. The eggs transfer motion to one another like billiard balls, so hits can be achieved on an entire row or column of eggs with a single kick.
The player can shoot his eyes at the Pesky Bugs to temporarily stun them, but the venerable Chomper is immune to this attack. Both the Pesky Bugs and the Chomper can be killed by kicking an egg at them.
General Rules:
- One Credit, No Continues.
- Highest score wins.
- No savestates, savestate practices, etc. during the round.
- MAME INP recordings are encouraged but optional.
- A screenshot is required to enter a score (press F12 to save screenshot showing your final score) or take a photo of the game screen.
- If you're a MARP competitor on this title, keep in mind this is just a friendly competition among forum members, so maybe you shouldn't enter. However, if you're a forum member and this is a game you're good at and nobody knows about it, this is your time to shine!
- Even if you don't have a competitive score or if you don't *think* that you have a competitive score, please post it anyway to keep the thread fun & to give everybody a good sense of score ranges.
- Please make sure your scores are from games that take place during the competition period (no posting your best score from last year, etc.).
- Use of autofire or other non-standard hacks within MAME or your PC's OS are not allowed. No program or other person or entity of any sort may manipulate your controls during your game. Coaching & back-seat driving is fine as long as the party doesn't directly influence the game or controls.
- If you can beat any of the high scores from the previous competitions, you can submit your score to the BYOAC High Game Scoreboard.

Sorry for the obscure pick guys, but I’m always a fan of hidden gems in MAME, and IMO this game is a hidden gem if I’ve ever seen one.
There is such little info about this game available on the net that it’s almost as if it didn’t exist. I had to write my own description of the game because the one at KLOV is completely wrong.
Be sure to check out the history.dat file (www.arcade-history.com) for some good starter tips. Game on!
ranmoor:
thats why these Competition's are so cool because you either get to play some games you just forgot about or have never really heard off ...
And yeah it seems a bit under the radar on the net , carnt even find a wiki about it or anything .. but the dat file from www.arcade-history.com is usefull
Good look all .. ;D
