Hey this looks interesting!

I am using Vice emulator. Pressed 1 and reached high score screen. Then no matter what I pressed number or space bar, nothing happens, cannot get the game to run. Checked settings Enabled Keyset Joystick.

Very nice!  Game runs great on my 4032.   Any chance of adding support for the Stupid Pet Tricks joystick adapter?   Here's the details to support it: check user port $E84F : Up (bit 3), Down (bit 4), Right (bit 2), Left (bit 1), Fire (bit 6)

It's already in the works. I thought it would work as is, as it does have a joy routine. Expect news shortly...

Awesome! I already modified my copy, but looking forward to seeing what you  come up with.. :D
