Mr. Wimpy
arcade game for Commodore 64, 1984
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Wimpy's task is to make the best Burgers in town and you must guide him
around the screen to achieve this. First assemble the ingredients avoiding
the moving manholes and Waldo the burger-thief. Now make the Wimpy Burgers
avoiding the kitchen rebels by directing the ingredients into the tray. If
you are trapped by the rebels you can pepper them into oblivion but only
three times unless you pick up the bonus gems, the ice cream or the cup of
coffee, which give you more chances to shoot.
STATUS AND SCORING
On screen scoring shows current score, hi-score, number of lives remaining and
number of peppers. Points are scored for the delivery of ingredients and
completing of the Burgers as shown on the screen.

Mr. Wimpy is guided around the playfield using your selected joystick or the
following keyboard controls.
