Project Page and download.

The goal of this game is to kill the baddies with your suck'n'gas gun and collect the goodies. Gameplay VIDEO
Features of the Gamecube Port: Playable single and 2 player mode and all 50 levels! Fullscreen, Sound and Music!
Highscore support is missing...

From the readme file:
Press the A button on controller 1 to start the game in single player,
press the A button on controller 2 for 2 player mode.
Use the Stick to move around the screen.
Tap the A button to fire gas from the gun.
Hold the A button to suck a trapped baddie into the gun.
Release the A button to throw the trapped baddie from the gun.
Throw baddies at the wall to destroy them.
Press START button to pause the game.
Press Z button to switch player graphics.
Have fun with this game, I loved the original Amiga game and played it HOURS! :D

Install instruction: copy methane.dol to your sdcard and launch with swiss. Have fun!

yeah, quite a bit. however, it is also different... you have to narcotize the enemies before you can suck them in and you can only have one at a time in your gas gun. ;-)

Nice game. It was a little confusing at the begining because I did not read the instructions(and considering I did not play the original version), but now I see it is a good old school game.

Nice job!

Was porting hard? I wonder how hard it would be to port NXEngine/Cave Story to Gamecube.
