Jump Bug

Overview

Scrolling platformer in the theme of Konami's Scramble, where the player controls a jumping, shooting car.

You can shoot and dodge creatures of the land, air and sea and collect money bags. Points can also be gained by jumping on clouds.

The stages include a city, pyramid and ocean. This title predates Irem's Moon Patrol, and may be the first scrolling platformer.
