Game Description:
Popeye is a platforming game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. The game is based on a television cartoon show.
Hack Description:
This patch makes Bluto, the NPC, partially playable! The other controller always controls Bluto.
You can control Bluto (left/right) make him jump and punch, throw bottles or reach down to the level below.

Is this the first ROM-hack ever that makes an NPC playable?
