AUTHOR Backyard Brothers
Geenie, Teenie, Meenie, Veenie.. These are the names of our four greenish
friends. You must jump them through worlds by levels.
They jump and collect, nothing else.
The main idea of this game is taken from an old C64 game, can't remember
it's
name or author. But, be sure that the game changed a lot (We pixelled
some graphics in 1990 when we saw the original game but they were nearly
forgotten.) We found them in 1995 and started to improve then the design
came. First there were just one greenie, Geenie (second from the left on
title). To add a 'Backyard' factor to the game we added extras
(balls/gems) and other greenies, more levels, more..That's why it took 4
months to finish the game.. Add more and more thingies takes more and more
times. As we did in Nibbler Super eXtra (first Backyard Brothers title).
After releasing NSX, we (finally) decided to release GEENIE... Enjoy!!

Needs ram....
Most of the game coded on a 512K Chip + 2 Meg Fast RAM A500 v1.3, and it
completed on a standard A1200.
Tested on:
A500 v1.3 512K Chip
A500 v1.3 512K Chip + 2M Fast
A600 1M Chip
A1200 2M Chip
A1200 2M Chip + 4M Fast + 68030
But we think it works on all Amigas..

There are some more extras to be collected, fruits and balls/gems. Fruits
gaves you some points and you see a number flying when you eat it. Get
them quick. See extra items.
Jumping is a matter of time...
Don't splash, avoid from moving thingies (if they're not staying on same
platform), collects extras and points, simple ?
There you'll se no enemy in first level, but more level you pass more
enemies you see..... with more specialities...

We have to thank to TUNC TAYLAN for his great design of Backyard Brothers

Backyard Brothers are a little team of ex-sceners (or sceners). There are
two coders (M.Ali and Berke), two graphicians (M.Ali and Tunc) and a
musician (Onat) in the team.
