I'm somewhat fascinated by this game's awfulness. The only truly terrible design aspect is the jumping into an enemy (red bird thing) to get to the next stage.
Every kid in the 80's who played this enough would like to disagree. It flies differently than the other vultures, it is immune to bullets and by the time you find it you're used to jumping in random places. It stands out like a sore thumb. It's one of the least cryptic things in this game.
that game is so frustrating... I remember we playing it as kids and having no idea what to do or where to go, so we assumed it was infinite and you just played it for points. Only discovered it has end recently
This game doesn't live up to the others and yet I have a strange love for it. It has a certain mindlessness to it a guy my age appreciates. It's like a hundred dollar bill buried under 8 tons of dog shit. There's fun to be had but you're going to have to dig deep and you're going to get messy.
I give this game a 10... err.. for it's Yuge level design and tremendous puzzle they put within it + they did it in head spinning assembly language (machine code)! believe me! :D I remember seing this game in the store... marveling at its box art, thinking: I can't believe they did a super pitfall! (this was before I bought the game back when it was released, we did not have internet). I had known the previous Pitfalls an even the arcade one, which I loved. So I could never think they made a disaster out of this one! I was very disappointed with the mario look-alike and the horrible "Marioish" control my jump in mid air thing which was not present in its earlier versions. Bad mistake. But being a fan of Pitfall 2 Lost Caverns, I gotta say I do still like this game for what it is.
I speedrun this game and saw you drop past the balloon and go through the bricks to the ladder. I tried making that exact jump about 30 times and no matter what you do, you can't glitch through that block. I tried shooting exactly where you shot, jumped exactly where you did (which is insanely hard to not grab that balloon) and it never worked. So unless this is some cheatin ass TAS magic, you're doing things that aren't possible in the game without cheating beyond button inputs.
Its pretty astounding that a game can be both glitchy as holy hell and also stable enough not to flat out crash. That is hard to pull off.
"Hey, look! It's the ghost of Pitfall Larry!"
"Oh and that must be... garry"
"He looks like Luigi with a broken walk cycle."
Let's play charades, who am I?
*stroke walks and dies*
The game not has errors. The game is a error.
Nice grammars
I like how even the glitch-abusing TAS route involves jumping into the bird warp zone
Is he walking in one foot or what?
Wats ur weed laced w lmfao 🤣
He probably broke a foot from falling 175 feet at the beginning
What a beautiful collision detection :)

Agreed there's really no way to know that's there.

Watch AVGN's video for confirmation.
Love this game so much- it is so much larger than what we see here
2:20 Pitfall Barry.

"Please try another world."
"GET YOUR ASS TO MAHS!"
Yeah, I totally recall how terribly this game was programmed...
I remember seeing AVGN's review of this game XD
nice [ _ ] beautiful

That wall-clipping trick puts a new spin on the term "ghost gun" lol
Absolute madness.
Pitfall Larry died because this game gave him a heart attack now his spirit is trying to help harry
To think they made a cartoon out of this game.
WHAT!? Noooo...
I thought the cartoon was of Pitfall 2, not this thing
1:36 OH SHIT WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!? That's fucking scary!!
Aye there Harry! Get em with the whole shot a gun so ya can walk through walls trick!
Did he just killed his girlfriend in case to save her? 3:54
That's not his girlfriend, that's his niece Rhonda
Are we supposed to be proud of you for this?~
it's not a bug...
it's a feature
State of art bug abuse.
its like fuck everything i want treasures xD

It literally says it's a TAS in the title. And this is the TAS videos channel. Of course it's using TAS tricks.
Great game, super underrated
In order to play this is to brake it..I redo my 4 year old comment because I didn't even know what I even said.
Nice TAS, but the game itself looks pretty dreadful. The level layout looks like I would make in Excitebike.
It's super mario on a safari hunt 4 treasure
🤦🤦🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
omg this game is so fucking broked
That game looks and sounds awful. I am sure it plays just as awful
wtf?
Man, this game looks like crap.
Who cares about walls 🤣
