I have never seen this hack of Mr. Do! Always interesting to see a hack but I really don't like the graphics of the new characters. I'm not sure if this hack is supposed to be sped up like it is. Either it's supposed to be sped up or your mame settings need to be adjusted for "speed" because this is way faster than Mr. Do! is supposed to play. He just does not move that quickly. One of my favourite games.
You have to remember that when this hack was released, there were tensions in the Middle East over oil, and I think that's why they changed the characters to Sheiks on Camels, Uncle Sam, and Oil Barrels. Now, after 42 years, there's still tensions in the Middle East over oil. That hasn't changed, but the sensitivities have, and this game would never fly (IMHO) in today's society. The hack is faster, intentionally, as it makes it harder to control, and therefore becomes more of a quarter grabber. I just wish they had done more work on the hack and did a complete conversion, instead of the shoddy job of having Mr. Do! characters at the bottom of the screen (instead of Yankee Do!), the splash screen and the cut screen graphics also need to be adjusted. Still...it's probably my all time favourite hack of an arcade game.

@@SilverBluesRetrocade I love all hacks. This was cool because I hadn't seen it before. I agree, they should have redone all the original Mr. Do scenes. Appreciate your vids and look forward to the next one!
