Not to stray off topic but someone should take a shot at making this game from another epic thread...

that's a good idea once this one is finished. Or maybe someone else can give it a try.

I'd love to add in some background music. If someone here could take care of that, that would be amazing. If that didn't work I could always find something online.

Haha, my bad! Thanks for letting me know. I just fixed it.
Thanks for all the suggestions, guys! Keep them coming! I'll be making some mock-up screen shots and we can vote on which ones will be made into the game.

I'd like to see a level where he has the game on a hand truck and has to wheel it out of there without scratching the sideart. The challenge at the end of the level would be making it across the rickety porch and down the homemade ramp.

Whilst being chased by meth-head zombies, of course!

Don't know if anyone else came across this but there have been at least 4 times where I've cleared the board, got the cab and not advanced to the next screen. Basically die due to timing out.

Could you explain a little bit more? I'd like to clear up any glitches with this game.
Could it possibly be that the time runs out right as you get to the cabinet? I've had that happen when I am literally a second away from completing the stage.

Just played and was at level two with at least 4 seconds left and I hit the arcade game and it disappeared and I just stood there and time ran out and said game over. Also on level one sometimes it doesn't give me one of the entergizers. I hit it and it disappears but nothing happens.
Does it give you bonus points based on how much time you have left?
Extra level where you have to move the arcade game off the platform would be cool. This also could be a intermission.
Yiu should also have a ending depending on what your score is. If it si really low Jail bars come down and say arrested. A little more and the building collapses just leaving the game split in two with rubble around it. Next up would be game saved but aquired by by another klover due to the cops being called. and lastly "In the Clear game is yours"
My high score so far is 4,000 something.

Nice suggestions! I think I will add some of them to the game possibly later today.
Anyways, here is the latest version of the games. All the glitches mentioned so far have been fixed. I also updated the link on the first page with the new version.

Love the game, even has an early 80's arcade look/play/feel!!
I like the idea of adventure challenges or something like that, kinda how Shinobi had little side games along the route.
You gotta have one trying to get the machine out and along a rickety old busted up deck halfway covered in plywood and halfway falling apart 50 year old boards that the nails are loose on! After you make it through that you have the plywood and wooden door ramp, then the crazy rocky hills outside.
I like the idea of the meth gas too, you gotta put the cooker in there somewhere maybe its at the enemy base and they can go back and power up off the cooker!
I'd also like to see some NARC type cooking/labratory equipment.
I thought the idea above about the owner being a boss was great, I also liked Noice's ideas about depending on your score made the ending different!
Great work man, for a few days work you've done a very fine job!

I downloaded the new version twice this morning and it still has the same errors. I always die at level two when the cabinet disappears and time eventually runs out.

For an intermission screen, after the game is rescued, you can have a guy in a truck show up looking for it. FT may even allow you to use his image.

Oops, sorry about that! I accidentally uploaded the old version again. Later today once I get home (around 5 or so) I'll put the correct version up.
