Wrecking Crew

Screenshots

A red-clothed character stands on a platform in the lower-left area of a multi-level industrial structure made of brown and yellow girders. Green barrels and white platforms form the main level architecture. The playfield is bordered by a green and purple pixel-art frame on both sides, with small UI elements visible along the edges. The background is solid black, and the overall sprite resolution is characteristic of early NES graphics.
