Pooyan on the Commodore 64 is an arcade-style shooter based on Konami’s game, where you play Mama Pig defending her piglets from armor-wearing wolves. Riding up and down in a gondola on the left side of the screen, you fire arrows horizontally to pop the balloons that wolves use to float up or down a cliff face, sending them crashing to the ground before they reach your platform. Different rounds flip the direction of attack—sometimes the wolves are rising, sometimes they’re descending—and they periodically throw rocks or use larger balloons that take more hits, forcing quick aim and prioritization
