Harry's World - Mayan Pyramids ? (Final Version)

 

The first now level has more trees in the background. Mayan Pyramids with Harry's Airplane Mode.

Probable latest version of Mayan Pyramids. All adjustments made.
Like every good Pitfall game involving adventures in dense forests, the background is now green. The bird of prey also has a slightly orange color. The labyrinth has new and more harmonious colors.

Nice!  Harry's adventure continues.  :)   I'm not familiar with the original game so will have to look that up.

Thanks. The hacks are based on
Mr. Postman, released by Bit Corp. It is a simple and surreal game, but very pleasant to play, you are in control of a bear postman(?). It's a game that was part of my childhood, so I have a special affection for it.
I'm making variations using the 2600's most well-known characters in place of the bear, the next one is Hero.
The original unaltered rom follows below, if you want to check it out.

Apparently, it was a bird?  I'd never have guessed that but I looked it up, lol.

I like the idea of the hero from Hero with his helicopter/jetpack and think it's the most appropriate substitution but my favorite sprite visually is your more recent one with Officer Kelly.

There were actually many variants of Mr. Postman released in Europe and Brazil, the official version of Bit Corp really seems to be about a bear that gains aerial powers, a very surreal plot.
One of the best, if not the best, site for consultation about ATARI and Atarimania games, maintained by Rom Hunter, a member of this community.
Here in Brazil, the version I had was the CCE one, with a very beautiful art and with a human postman, but when I played as a child, it was strange, because I always identified him as a bear.

I also recommend this topic here on the forum, where the game and its variants were very well discussed.
