The Very Hungry Pumpkin

## Description

_The Very Hungry Pumpkin_ is set on Halloween eve and all the sweet candy
lies around in the streets. This is fortunate because the player controls a
very hungry pumpkin.

This is a simple one-screen action game. The pumpkin can be freely controlled
and candy randomly appears. However, there are also kids in Halloween costumes
wandering around (always straight from left to right or in reverse) which also
pick candy up when they reach it. If that is not enough, they also take away
one of the pumpkin’s lives if touched. Sometimes a clock appears which
temporarily freezes all enemies. The goal of each level is to eat as much
candy as possible before time runs out.
