Howzit all. i need help naming a game and where to get. i dont think its a
mame rom because ive checked all of them. its a game with a bird who is on
top of a cubed pyramid and it has to jump on all the cubes to change the
colour to advance to the next stage. any ideas. Thanks

That's Q*Bert, and it's definitely been MAME'd.
