"Deep, deep, down underground, Pixie Pete the pot-holer is digging for his life! Can you help him survive?"
Pixie Pete is a single screen game viewed from the side inspired by the arcade game Dig Dug where you control Pete as he digs around the screen to collect all the carrots over various levels. As you dig you leave behind tunnels and moving through the tunnels is Desmond the Dragon who can be avoided or killed but Desmond cannot dig through the dirt. To kill Desmond you use your pump which when extended can touch Desmond and pressing the fire button pumps him full of air till he explodes.
