Funky Fungus starts out with some lovely static screens which portray the story. I don't have mushroom to go into details but suffice to say it's a typically daft plot.
The game is played on single screen levels and the idea is I guide our titular hero around the level, jumping on platforms and avoiding the baddies until you reach the star. Upon doing so the tables are turned as you gain the ability to fire on your foes. Eliminate them all and you'll progress to the next level. Simple eh? Well it would be except the enemies are pretty nippy and you'll need expert timing right from the first level.
Funky Fungus is a challenging game but it's also great fun with some outstanding presentation.
