The Last Pumpkin - A charming bouncing platformer for the Commodore 64 by Donut80

It was only just last month that we featured Donut80's charming little platformer that's fun for all ages, game called 'Egg Fued'. A Jumpman Junior, Bounty Bob Strikes Back, and Lode Runner inspired game, whereby you need to collect all the eggs while avoiding the nasty foxes. Well fast forward to this month, and the same developer has made available the spooky yet charming bouncing platformer called 'The Last Pumpkin'. A game in which one player controls a plucky pumpkin while the other takes charge of a fearless cat. Your mission is to gather bones and sweets while dodging bats, ghosts, and all manner of castle-dwelling nasties.

Here's the latest. "Collect every bone in a stage to release the golden key that unlocks the next area - but grabbing it is only half the challenge. Stomp troublemakers to shake loose bonus sweets, and bounce on treasure chests to spill even more sugary loot. With levels set both inside and outside a haunted castle, there's plenty of spooky variety to keep you on your toes. Both characters bounce constantly on their own, so timing and positioning are everything. Move left or right with the joystick and make clever use of the game's full screen-wrapping: slip off the left edge to reappear on the right, or fall below the screen to pop out at the top. Mastering this trick is essential for outmaneuvering hazards and scooping up goodies at high speed."
