Old Arcade Game Title?

Post by teessee »

I am looking for a game i played on an arcade machine somewhere around 1989 -1991. It was a 2d jump and run game in which the main caracter (to my recollection) was a fury white round shaped creature. It had to run, swim and jump. It also could shoot spike things to open hidden gates and it could hit other creatures with it.
I don't know what platform it was but it was placed in a local pub (could have been something like neo-geo).
I am somewhat of a novice at these things, havent played old arcade machines since those days.
Thanks for al the help in finding this old game.

Thanks for the reply, the gameplay was similar to toki. The main character was more of a pinguin-like creature (with completely white body).

i've found the game i was looking for: new zealand story!
strange how your recollection of things from 25 years ago isn't as accurate as you would like to believe. Next thing is to find the game for neo geo mvs. Does anyone know if it exist for this game cab?
Thanks

New Zealand Story is great and fits with your description, although the character description threw me off. I don't think it exists for neo-geo cabs though!
