	MAWS - showing resource: kangaroo
		A platform game in which the player controls a mother Kangaroo who must climb through the treetops trying to rescue her captured son.
		Numerous monkeys, the kidnappers of her child, roam the levels set on stopping the player's progress.
		The monkeys constantly throw apples at the Kangaroo which must either be avoided (either by ducking or jumping, depending on the height of the approaching apple), or punched away, the latter of which allows the Kangaroo to punch the apple back towards the attacking monkey.

	MAMExpose - Kangaroo/Springer/JJ Squawkers
		Kangaroo was their best arcade game, and while it's fun, charismatic, and innovative, it falls well behind its inspiration Donkey Kong thanks to subpar graphics and less than reliable control.
		I grew up playing the 5200 version of Kangaroo, and while it played and looked like the arcade game, it was missing some features.
		Kangaroo's unique play mechanics and clever setting help distinguish it from other platformers available in the early 80's, but its sloppy artwork and unprofessional design prevent it from being on par with Donkey Kong, earning it a merely satisfactory six.

	Atari 5200 -- Kangaroo (Manual)
		The object of Kangaroo is to score as many points as you can while helping Mother Kangaroo rescue her precious baby.
		Mother Kangaroo must punch out each monkey one by one, or climb up ladders to a tree branch where she can jump onto the platform to save her baby.
		Mother Kangaroo can leap from the edge of a branch or a log, but she must land flat on her feet.

		Kangaroo was originally an arcade game by Sun Corp (a little known Japanese game manufacturer), and was licensed by Atari for distribution in the US.
		Kangaroo was released for the 2600 as part of Atari's push to bring more arcade games to its home systems (2600, 5200, 400/800), and like most of the 2600 arcade ports was programmed by GCC.
		The 2600 version is a good translation which features 3 of the 4 arcade levels, decent graphics, and pretty good control (there's a minor bug on the second level that's worth noting).

		In fact, so realistic was this game that is got the attention of the US Army who hired Atari to redesign the game using simulated controls from a Bradley Fighting Vehicle and modified the software with tragectory and other more real world combat settings for training purposes.
		An unreleased version of it for the Atari 2600 and Atari 5200 consoles was made.
		Atari Corp released it as Tempest 2000 for the Atari Jaguar 64, Atari Interactive released it for the PC platform.

	Phosphor Dot Fossils \| Atari 2600 Kangaroo
		The biggest problem with Kangaroo for the VCS is the same Achilles' Heel that has brought down many a well-intentioned game for that system - blinkin' sprites.
		At times, when the number of monkeys and projectiles tops out, you can see your opponents about as well as you can see, oh, say, the ghosts in the 2600 version of Pac-Man - and that's not a good thing.
		Other than that, Kangaroo is a decent translation.

	The Atari Times - 2600 - Kangaroo Review
		The graphics are no where near good, not even for the 2600.
		I usually give 2600 games a control rating of 90-95% because there just isn't much that you can screw up with a four-way joystick and a single button, but Kangaroo manages to somehow screw it up.
		The 2600 version does a great job of replicating the feel of the arcade, but without the graphics.

		Kangaroo is one of the better platform games spawned by Donkey Kong.
		You play a mother kangaroo attempting to rescue her baby while being terrorized by a band of apple-throwing monkeys.
		Your kangaroo looks pretty decent however, and it's easy to make her jump, punch, and duck.

		Like a lot of people of my generation, I grew up playing with the Atari 2600 and the stack of game cartridges that I acquired in the early 1980s.
		It was one of my most beloved beloved toys of my youth, and when my 2600 console died sometime in the late 1980s, I thought I'd never play a lot of those games again.
		Sure, there were a bunch of other companies, like Activision, who made games for the 2600, but I'm talking about games (especially a lot of the latter-day games) like Pole Position, Kangaroo, Dig Dug, etc. versions of which Atari made for the 2600.

		The shape of the 2600 cartridges were small and a nice uniform shape.
		The Atari 2600 originated in the late 70's (1978) and it really blew up the scene in about 1982.
		A few hobbiest have programmed some new games, such as Edtris (a version of Tetris for the 2600), but the 2600 is hard to program for and making the games is extremely complex.

		The Atari 5200 Supersystem was released in 1982 as the successor to the Atari 2600, which had been starting to show its age.
		The graphics are okay by Atari 5200 standards, but I personally found the color a little drab.
		This was quite a gem on the Atari 5200, but unfortunately the 1984 videogame "crash" occured, and this good system and game were all but forgotten.

		Part Two of the Atari 2600 look into arcade games that were converted for home play.
		Lots of time could be spent blasting Asteroids and shooting spaceships and even more time could be spent Lurking, a name given to players who left one piece of Asteroid and waiting for the high priced small spaceship to appear.

		Ultimately, it was little better than Atari's dedicated Pong and Stunt Cycle consoles, and it was set aside in favor of a truly programmable system.
