About this product

Product Information

Based on the popular 1981 teenage film of the same name, Porky's is a ribald adventure where you star as Pee-Wee, a character trying to exact his revenge on Porky by blowing up his bar.<br><br>At the beginning of the game, you find yourself at the county line, ready to enter Porky's territory. As you make your way up the screen, you must dodge various obstacles, ala Frogger. Reach the bar and you've made it. Hit an object, and you'll find yourself cast into in the swamp.<br><br>You can escape from the swamp by pole vaulting up to the platforms on either side of the screen and collect bricks to make an escape ladder. Once you climb out of the swamp, you'll be in the girls' shower.<br><br>Upon entering the shower, you are treated to a view of Wendy showering in the middle of the screen. To escape, you must push a brightly colored object that appears on the top of the screen into the pit below. Every time you accomplish this, one of the groups of obstacles on the first level will stop, making it easier for you to reach Porky's bar. Be sure to avoid Ms. Balbricker, or she will push you back into the swamp. After you push the object in the pit, you may climb out of the shower and back to the county line.<br><br>If you make it to Porky's bar, you must blow it up by climbing to the top of the scaffolding using a secret path. An arrow on the left side of the screen will turn green if you are on the right path, and red if you are the wrong path. If you make a mistake, you must start again from the bottom of the screen. Porky paces back and forth on the bottom, ready to grab you. Complete this final level and you have won the game.<br><br>The left skill switch affects the difficulty of the shower scene. The right skill switch affects the difficulty of the swamp scene. Setting the color switch to "black & white" will make Ms. Balbricker more aggressive.<br><br>Points are gained by accomplishing tasks and are deducted when an enemy catches you.
