This game has got to be one of the most bizzare, tripped out games that
I've ever had the honor of playing. Originally being designed as a Color Dreams game, this game had
the misfortune of being in the creation process when Color Dreams morphed into the biblical game company
Wisdom Tree. The now-religous version of the game, Fish Fall, appeared on the Sunday Funday
cartridge, along with the now-pious version of Menace Beach. This is one of those crazy games
with a storyline that's just so bizzare that it makes it a lot of fun to play. Out of sheer
generousity, the lead programmer of this game, Roger DeForest shared the source code to both
this game as well as a later version of the game, after the biblical conversion was started.
Although we have yet to successfully compile Fish Fall, here is Free Fall for everyone to enjoy.

| Gameplay is simple - the evil Squishy is controlling the simple
minds of the people and making something completely insane seem like a good idea to them - jumping
from high places into giant pools of acid. You control a hand - your goal is to catch the falling
insane idiots and then fling them back up to the top of the screen and get them into the pipe
for some mental counciling. You lose points for every little moron that successfully hits the
acid, as well for those who you cause to turn into grease spots on the ceiling. The enemies
flying in the air will make you lose either men in your hand if they touch you, or cause your
total saved number to decrease. For more information, see the instructions posted below which
accompanied the source code.

First off, a special thanks go out to Buddha and the members of
#fefea for making this release possible. This game is easily both one of the better prototypes
taht I've ever played as well as one of the most bizzare. If you're reading this page, you simply
owe it to yourself to at least try this game. One other thing of note for all you cheaters out
there - holding B and pressing SELECT will advance you to the next level instantly. Since the game
is great, and it just gets more bizzare as it moves on...
See the final boss of the game, and the ending!!
