New Ghostbusters II

Screenshots1 / 2

A top-down view of a red brick building interior shows a Ghostbuster character sprite in the center with a proton pack, surrounded by scattered debris and white ghost sprites. Yellow rectangular platforms line the upper and lower walls. Dark gray pillars divide the space vertically. A yellow doorway appears in the top-left corner. The pixel art uses a limited NES color palette with red dominanting the floor, yellow for architectural elements, and white and black for details. Scattered white dots suggest collectible items or supernatural activity across the room.
