This one got me laughing the whole time, something about the wild smiles on those pogoplumbers faces got me good! As eltea said, you definitely nailed the theme on this one. My favorite part is by far those wacky graphics! When the winner screen appears, it was like the 8 bit version of the beginning of the song Time from Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon (I know that's a bit of a wild stretch but it just popped into my head the second I heard it) very surreal indeed... GOOD JOB!
For anyone interested in trying, the download is actually an installer. It did run fine for me, but you can get 100% of the feel for the game from the youtube video.
Congrats on your first game! The use of the joystick is very reminiscent to me of early sports games I played on the Commodore 64. A little bit of setup for menus and restart would be a good addition to allow people to have another go at it.
Very surreal game, but one that matches the theme perfectly.
