| | "The name 'Mappy' is likely derived from mappo, a slightly pejorative Japanese slang term for policeman." (Wikipedia) I learned to avoid Mappy in the arcades as a kid because it was too darn hard. Avoided it more recently 'cause of the color-cycling door FX on my eyeballs, but they're a bit better now and it isn't so bad. Mappy's pretty cool. Great sprites. Design gives loads of close calls because your mouse copper can pass the cat perps(?) safely in midair, bouncing off trampolines. Who doesn't love cats and trampolines? Opening doors bashes you and the cats with the door. Cats open doors and knock themselves out, which never stops being funny. Weirdly irradiate a pile of cats by opening a color-cycling door for big points. Take their stuff. Cats ain't got no rights in Mappy's authoritarian mouse heckscape in which they never invented stairs nor elevators--just trampolines. Good old timey tune. |
