Mappy - Bally Midway & Namco's Arcade mouse game has arrived on the Amiga via JOTD

I had a feeling it wouldn't be too long for another JOTD announcement, and thus here we are with a new Arcade to Amiga port that's been released called 'Mappy'. A side-scrolling platformer that was developed by Namco for the Japanese market in March 1983, and published in North America by Bally Midway in April of the same year. A game that originally ran on a modified Namco Super Pac-Man hardware to support horizontal scrolling.

In this game you play as Mappy, a police mouse tasked with retrieving stolen goods from a mansion occupied by a gang of thieving cats.  The gameplay involves navigating six floors using trampolines, avoiding or stunning enemies using doors and microwave doors, and collecting pairs of items for bonus points.  The main antagonists are the red boss cat Goro (called Nyamco in Japan) and the smaller blue Meowky cats (Mewkies in Japan)"
