Kick (video Game)
''Kick'' is an action video game where the player controls a clown on a unicycle catching falling balloons and '' Pac-Man'' characters on the clown's hat. It was released in arcades by Midway in 1981. The game was later renamed ''Kick Man'' (sometimes written as ''Kick-Man''). Commodore published a Commodore 64 port in 1982 without the space in the title as ''Kickman''. Gameplay The player controls a clown on a unicycle who moves left and right along the bottom of the screen. Balloons dislodge from several rows at the top and fall. The goal is to catch them on the clown's hat. As the stack of caught ballons grows taller, it becomes more difficult to catch them on the first try. If a balloon falls below the top of the stack, pressing the "kick" button when near the clown's feet launches it back into the air. The main character and ghosts from ''Pac-Man'' sometimes stand-in for balloons, having different effects. If an object hits the ground, then the player loses a life. ''Kic ...
