Popper (bootleg of Hard Head) — About this game
Popper (bootleg of Hard Head) is an exact registered version in this game family. Hard Head uses head-first block breaking and a bubble gun to open its platform route. Striking blocks can release useful items, while bubbles trap enemies that can then be finished by jumping onto them. Other weapons change the attack during the journey. Each stage ends with a football goal, so reaching the far side still leaves a final kick before the next area begins. Version-specific changes to characters, stages, timing, difficulty, balance, graphics or hidden content are not inferred where the registration does not document them.
