Oh yeah! Boogerman's the man we appreciate!

(well, only because he was included in Clayfighter 63 1/3)

You've seen this guy before. He played originally on shock value--how could you get away with an entire game based on a guy who burps and farts all day? It all depends on whether that guy is a professor/janitor with a bad 'tude. I think he dumped this problem on himself, however--by unloading the entire world of garbage on an alternate dimension, how do you expect the guys on the other side to react?

Well, hopefully not this dryly. The game is repetitive, though abundant in cool little secrets and background nuances. I still have lots of fun killing those Pus things and then getting hit and melted off the board Flying around the level on chili gas is fun too, it seems like something I would do! Though the levels are simple, there's a reason you get a password BEFORE each boss--you often need to replay the freaks. If you can shrug everything off, and conquer even the dreaded Booger Meister, you'll find there are very few poor factors to this game--even the sometimes tacky sound effects really don't hurt the gameplay that much, as it fits right in.
