Winging Pumpkin for Commodore AMIGA 500
A downloadable game
ENG:
Winging Pumpkin is a horizontal scrolling mini-game developed by Alberto Sgaggero using the Scorpion Engine. Created for the Commodore Amiga 500, the game is inspired by the famous Flappy Bird, but with a Halloween-themed look!
The game is a port to AMIGA of the MSX version originally called Flappy Thing.
Game Objective
Your task is to guide a classic Halloween pumpkin flying through the city; you must avoid hitting the colored brick walls and make sure it doesn’t crash into the ceiling or the floor.
How to Play?
The game is very simple. The flying pumpkin tends to fall downwards. By repeatedly pressing the FIRE button on the joystick, the pumpkin will flap its bat wings and gain altitude. The goal is to stay airborne for as long as possible and achieve the highest score!
Have Fun!

Il gioco è un port per AMIGA della versione MSX originariamente chiamata Flappy Thing.
Obiettivo del Gioco
Il tuo compito è guidare una classica zucca di Halloween che vola attraverso la città; dovrai evitare di farle colpire i muri di mattoni colorati e di non farla sbattere contro il soffitto o il pavimento.
Come si gioca?
Il gioco è molto semplice. La zucca in volo tende a cadere verso il basso. Premendo ripetutamente il tasto FIRE del joystick, la zucca batterà le sue ali da pipistrello e guadagnerà quota. L’obiettivo è rimanere in volo il più a lungo possibile e ottenere il punteggio più alto!
Buon divertimento!

Fun game with great music, a bit of a difficult game for me. I also added it to my new video along with other recently released Amiga games.
Thank you so much for trying my game and for including it in your video. By the way, great video! Congratulations!
I'm really impressed by your YouTube channel, it's amazing!
Maybe enter this in the GameJam2024?
Do you think I could? I don't know, it doesn't seem like a very original game to participate with. ^__^; To be honest, I've never participated in a Game Jam, and there are so many of them... Could you please tell me which one you're referring to? Anyway, thank you for the comment!
Sorry, my bad. The entries for the jam closed on Saturday.

The jam was based on sequels to existing games, so your flappy bird 2 game would have been suitable. The up-side of the game jam is they will be played by many people, including on Amiga Bill's Twitch stream, so plenty of free coverage.
Is this a full game or just a demo/prototype. If it is the full game, maybe we can add this to Lemon Amiga?
OK, even though the jam is over, thank you for the heads-up!
The game is complete. I imagine that if I were to add something, I would probably create a new game with more gameplay options, levels, etc., but I wouldn't continue on this one.
Yes, you can add the game to Lemon Amiga; I would be honored! :)
Nice.
Wow! Thank you very much for trying my game and also for the video!
