Purple Turtles
This is a homebrew game, run on Gameboy Color. Original version: Richard Moore - Quicksilva / Commodore UK Ltd.. Commodore 16/Plus4, 1984. Created with GB-Studio 2.0.0 beta5!
Turtle Bobbing is a sport which can only be carried out with the very rare Purple Turtle. The fabled Purple Turtles rise and fall as the whim takes them and due to their passive nature and unusual buoyancy they can be used as stepping stones. A game for the young at heart and for people who have tired of alien bashing.
How to play
Jack is standing on the left hand bank of the river at the start of the annual Turtle Bobbing contest. On the right hand bank is a fruit tree and Jack must cross the river using the turtles as stepping stones to collect the fruit and bring it back to the left hand bank. But don't let Jack fall into the water or he will drown.

Just made a gameplay video of the game.
It's good that you made a video about it, it's one of the dullest games in my opinion, but it can be enjoyed for 1-2 minutes and that's what counts!
Nice game !
Thank you very much, let's face it, you are not the best turtle jumping player. :)
