You know, I've always wondered what the heck Q-bert was.
...This game does not answer my question whatsoever.

[@romajimamulo]

What a way to discover Q-bert had sequels

[@MOONTRIPS]

I never minded the jump sound... until watching this TAS. RIP

[@vrasten]

I'm watching Q-Bert 3 being expertly played, yet all I can think of is "this is going to be 15 solid minutes of that awful jump noise."

What's with the final message about the "light show"?

[@XanthinZarda]

Simple. Punch in a code and the game will regale you with all the trippy backgrounds it has to offer.

[@MattiaBulgarelli]

@@XanthinZarda thanks, I'll look into it.

[@Recon-cv1fe]

Q-Bert was proof that game developers on acid could make a pretty decent game

Thumbs down for disabling backgrounds and music
