Overly cute platform game in which you are a kiwi bird in New Zealand trying to save your fellow Kiwi's from an evil Walrus. Very nice graphics and very addictive gameplay. Access levels with jumping, swimming and balloon flying.



KLOV: https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8859

This game for some reason has always fascinated me as a cute and addictive little platformer. Not great at it but it's a good change of pace.

24,600. I'm leaving town for a week tomorrow, so this will probably be my last score. I've only had about 30 minutes to play, but I find this game tedious. Really cute though, and great music too.

This game is *SO CLOSE* to being absolutely fantastic.  It's still really fun, but man, could've been gold.  I still prefer the NES version tho.

303,930. Thought my 226k would hold, actually stopped playing for a few days. This was a hectic weekend.

You guys are crazy, and way beyond me. Great watching the competition, though.

We should probably figure out a system for deciding where the trophy goes, next. I mean, I REALLY love answering questions about it, but wouldn't want to deprive someone else, haha.

The only system that comes to mind would be to count the number of wins. Since, including this one, there are 10 games left and I'm leading 9-2, I probably will end up getting the most wins. I didn't want the trophy last year, I also don't want it this year. I'm ok with you keeping it, but perhaps jasonbar should decide about that, as it is his trophy.
