It actually had a fun way of beating enemies, in my opinion. Like most platformers in that time, one touch from enemies killed you. So Spanky was somehow able to throw a ball up in the air. If you bounced it of his head, it got bigger. Than if you pressed a button while it was in the air, it would detonate into various types of sporting balls (baseballs, bastketballs, soccer balls, etc.) depending on the power level, if I remember all of that correctly.
(Looks for a rom, so he can relive it all for up to 24 hours)![]()
