Do you remember the two farting guys “Terrance & Phillip” from South Park? Now those two guys have their very own computergame on the Atari 2600 platform.

Release notes:

OK, apparently there was a bug with the hidden unlimited ammo code. You were only supposed to have 3 farts per level. So what I did was remove the farts all together and you now jump with the fire button. The bug Open Source Pong mentioned has been fixed. Also, level 1 is complete. And, I added some background music which you can turn off at the title screen by putting the left difficulty switch to A. I hope this is better.

Can you enter the code before the the time limit reaches? Find the code and save yourself!
