Putting this out as a feeler. Really fun game with awesome speech, but it kicks my ass! I have somebody making the sideart for it right now, but currently there is none on it...i will ship the art to whomever buys it if it's purchased before it arrives. the cabinet is in great shape, except for the 12" long gouge on the left side near the control panel. game works 100%, including the speech. i had to rebuild the harness, but everything else is original. no idea as far as value, i haven't seen one come up for sale.

Game is located in Green Bay, WI...i will work with a shipper that the buyer arranges.

pm with interest.

Game is sold...thanks!

thanks,
mike

Yep, this game is a pisser, especially that pipe maze shit. But it's great fun. I've said this a few times, if you plan on getting a Looping, install a heavy punching bag next to it. No joke. Save the game. :D
 
It's definitely a hard game and too hard for kids to play, but once you get the touch down and build some muscle memory, it can be super fun to make it through a few levels...

yeah...i finally got past the first stage after i played it last night when i took the pictures. i just wish there was a "brake" button instead of an "accelerate" button!!!

anyway...bump...pm's replied to, still available :)
 
Wow, I thought I was just bad at playing this game.

Everyone else agrees it's that difficult ? All these years
I thought it was just me.

I've always heard it was one of the nightmare games in terms of difficulty. Never seen it in person to try though. Played the hell out of it via ColecoVision and always loved it. Such a weird game...part of the appeal though.
 
It took me a couple of years to find mine - it was the only arcade game in my home town as a kid so It had a lot of nostalgia for me... Yours looks amazing... A shame the side art is gone... Not too many of them around... My guess is that is was not popular, and most cabs were converted to something else... It was one of the first games to use the Texas instrument speech chip and the game designers were from Italy...

I have made it past the first two levels... There is a pattern to it... The main thing it getting used to the control orientation where the plane goes up when the stick goes down... That throws most off...

Glad you still have your. One of the nicest, original games I've seen.
