1) Introduction
Firstly, thanks for downloading this hack that started as a joke between buddies and has become the first collaboration between
Protopixel (sprites) and Crying Onion (programming and additional graphics).
"Popeye" is a Nintendo video game based on the eponymous character, which after being a huge hit in the arcades in 1982, was ported
only a year later to the beloved Famicom.
Being a game developed and published in the early days of the Famicom, it is needless to say that we are talking about a pretty
straightforward game, although we should not underestimate the fun that can be found in its 24 kylobites of memory, nor the group of
crazy guys who thought it was a good idea to create this crossover.
