Reception

Crash magazine called Killer Kong "a very fine version with excellent graphics and plenty of screen variation."[2]
In 2011, retrogaming magazine ZX Spectrum Gamer wrote, "Killer Kong might actually be pretty good if it didn't play like a magazine type-in. The movement is really jerky–character square movement instead of pixel precision, and the barrels tend to flicker enough to make things really tricky".[3]
gollark: You need to do SLIGHTLY more arithmetic than that.
gollark: As planned.
gollark: I *do* do stuff like download entire copies of wikipedia and just never deleting unused files, which is probably why.
gollark: The osmarks.tk™ primary server has 1TB of disk space which is somehow half full.
gollark: Have you tried multiplayer lambda calculus?
