Road Fighter

IIRC, he occasionally flys by on the left-hand side of the street or screen.

Amusingly, I also (like Doc, c.2006) love 'A Week of Garfield', despite the one life thing. Shouldn't he have 9 lives? No, I guess he only eats lasagna, and either they don't make that flavour, or the stores here don't stock it.

That's konamiman??? WAAAA I was always thinking of that flying thing as Superman

I guess I was too busy crashing to ever notice him.

Indeed, that was he. I don't remember rightly, but I think that he flys over the street, and if you hit him it's worth extra points. The game is entirely pattern-based, so once you know it, you can more-easily avoid crashes: Red and blue cas have the same appearance rate and movement each time, so it's all a matter or practice.

IMHO, this is one of the better selections on the 52/64-in-1 multicarts, along with '1989-Galaxian'. It's sad that no pure 'Spy Hunter' port was ever properly-made for the FC... The one attempt to do so was a botch-job and I'll play 'Road Fighter' over it any day.
