Mr. Nutz

''"This game's squirrelly action is standard side-view hop-n-bop." - GamePro Magazine, October 1993''

Mr. Nutz is an animal platformer released on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, with ports to the Game Boy and Game Boy Color, and was remade on the Game Boy Advance.

The game features coins which, according to the game's manual on the Genesis, give points for each one collected, being worth 50 points apiece.

Collecting every coin in the level gives a perfect score which awards the player an extra life.

Trivia

 * The original SNES and Genesis versions were developed by only two people: Philippe Dessoly and Pierre Adane. Pretty cool!
 * Originally, the main character was going to be a turtle or a parrot.
 * The working title was Squirrel's Game. With the original idea for the main character in mind, it can be safely assumed the working title would have been either Turtle's Game or Parrot's Game.
 * It is unknown what the final title would be if it were not a squirrel as the main character. Possibly it would be Mr. Crackerz if it was a parrot or Mr. Bugz if it was a turtle.
