Trivia

There was a version of this game licensed to Budweiser, which had Budweiser's logo on the backdrop.

The player character in this game is based on an employee of the game's designer (Marvin Glass) named Mike Ferris who had the same bald head, glasses and mustache, and always wore a red T-shirt. In the original coin-op versions, his T-shirt is in red. The same man is also found in some other Marvin Glass coin-ops: "Domino Man" and "Timber".

The game featured some "product placement" during the bonus round. I remember at least the Mountain Dew logo and I doubt this market was considered by their marketing department back in 1983. Whether they agreed that Bally Midway show their trademark or not remains a mystery.
