Squirrel King is an unlicensed platform game developed for the Sega Mega Drive. It was published and developed by Gamtec, and therefore its origin is Taiwan. Squirrel King is extremely similar to Capcom's Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers and it sequel, Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers 2 for the NES, to the point where the player actually plays as two characters named "Chip" and "Dale" (though they look slightly different to their Disney counterparts). C jumps, B picks up and throws crates, and A allows Chip or Dale to throw fireballs, assuming they have some in their inventory. Squirrel King is the basis for another unlicensed title, Super Mario World, also for the Mega Drive,but developed by Chuanpu and possibly published by Ming Super Chip Electronic.

Booted this up on the ol' everdrive and watched the demo as bootleg Chip/Dale instantly fell through the floor and crumpled up in agony. Found that I myself would fall through the floor on startup, fantastic stuff. Curiously looked this up and didn't see anything documented about the intangible stage floor, then discovered it played fine on Kega.

Would've been funnier and better if it was just like that, a better prank on the industry than the 7th TLoU remaster/remake.
