General Commentary and Game Overview

Ah, Poochie! That loveable Yoshi's Island dog that always seemed to be high on something! Well, here's a game starring him... and it's a shame it was scrapped, as it would've been the first fangame giving you control of Poochie.

Pros	Playable Poochie, good engines, snazzy graphics
Cons	A little buggy

Impressions

Gameplay 8 / 10	By all rights, this game shouldn't be fun, but it is. I guess there's some nostalgia in making Poochie headbutt some monkeys. Anyway, the gameplay goes like this: You have to kill all the enemies in the stage, by headbutting them, to move on. There are some bugs (Such as multiple Poochies o.o), but for the most part, the gameplay is optimal.
Graphics 9 / 10	These graphics are awesome. There are nice graphical touches, such as Poochie blurring when he attacks, and the intro screens. The other graphics are ripped, but have been enlarged and enhanced very nicely.
Sound 6 / 10	There are a few midis and sound effects. Nothing special.
Replay 2 / 10	If that Poochie nostalgia gets to you, then you'll play this a few times over. If not... well, there are only two levels. 'Nuff said.

Final Words

This actually had the potential to be a great game. Too bad it was scrapped.
