PrinceWatercress plays Looney Tunes - Part 1 of 6


Seven stages. Seven characters. Seven stories. Is it an RPG? No, it's actually Looney Tunes for the Game Boy. Unlike other games based on the license with one major protagonist and/or one major antagonist, this one has a cavalcade of characters, some of which you'll be playing as.

Stage 1: Daffy Duck

Left and Right let you move around, Down lets you duck, A lets you jump and B lets you throw a frisbee. You can also defeat enemies by jumping on them. 

Besides your current score, you have your current health and amount of lives as well as the amount of time you have left in the stage at the bottom. You can have up to three hearts, and if you lose them all, you lose a life.

Gems give you 500 points each. You'll get an extra life at every 50,000 points. The flasks with the hearts on them give you one unit of health back.

TNT blocks will blow up when jumped into from underneath and struck with the frisbee, and the explosions do kill enemies.

Yosemite Sam tries to move up to you and shoot you, but he goes down in three hits.

Be careful on slopes, as you will slide down them when you are standing on them.

The big white birds can be stood on and ridden like platforms, but if you hit them with the frisbee, they will turn black and keep shooting bullets at you. Don't hit them!

Marvin the Martian is faster than Yosemite Sam and will go all over the place while shooting at you as you try to hit him five times. 

The dragon is easily defeated with four hits from the frisbee.

The POW Star gives you temporarily invincibility. Use it to run past the bridges that fall down when you move across them.

While underwater, watch out for hermit crabs and fish. Thankfully, you can also move into them from above to defeat them, though that can send you into spikes. Thankfully, the spikes don't kill you. The sea monsters take three hits to kill. To defeat Sam in the water, duck the bullets and hit him with the frisbee three times. Stay in the middle of the spike patch to get the 1-Up afterwards.

Keep mashing the A button to keep from getting sucked downwards by the currents.

The boss is a giant tadpole. The giant tadpole will move around in a circle and spit fish at you that you'll need to hit with the frisbee along with the giant tadpole. The giant tadpole always goes low when it switches to the left side of the screen, and always goes high when it switches to the right side of the screen.

Once you beat the boss, move into the treasure chest to get the treasure and move on to Stage 2. You'll get bonus points for your remaining time on the timer and for clearing the stage.
