Trivia

Legacy

This game is often on Sonic the Hedgehog collections due to the character looking almost 100% like the Sonic character Flicky. However, since this game came first, it seems Sonic's Flicky was based on it.

Original Name

According to the game ROM, the game was originally called Busty, was later changed to Flippy and then finally - due to an pre-existing US Trademark - became Flicky.
