1985 ESP (Software for the Future) (UK)
by David Whyte
Who would have said than eating a moldy blue sausage would make police officers with no arms or legs, disappear?

Well, this is why I'm a sucker for old retro games and their nonsensical ideas.
Copper Hopper wont make you goggle your eyes in surprise nor will you emit some weird victory noise after completing a level (although frankly you should in case you complete the game!). Copper Hopper is challenging indeed, not only because of bad key response, but also for the obstacles you must go thru.
David Whyte wasn't a gifted programmer at this age, but delivered two hard challenging games, which remain equally charming and frustrating as they can be.
