Title: Anybody can recognize this game?
Post by: Belike on November 22, 2010, 09:17:36 PM

There was a really good game I used to play in the 80's in our arcades, but I can't remeber it's name.
You controlled a fat sailor or something in the bottom of the screen from left to right and you had to catch some kinda packages or similar falling items.I don't remeber the background exactly, maybe it was a ship or something.

Not this one, I think it's from the early 80's and it has a fixed screen, you could only move from to left to right and back, like in Pang series.

Also known as Dock Man (which is AFAIK the original Taito version)

Easy one, though I couldn't remember the exact name at first  ;)

Looks like a fun game  :)
