firstly, i am sorry for making a new thread, but could not find the other one...

It is an old game, that i played on a coin operated machine. Very simple premise....

you control a man at the bottom of the screen, you can only move left or right. You have to catch boxes that are thrown down from above. When you have completed this phase, phase 2 starts .... you have to throw stacks of the boxes up the screen, and fill wagons or barges. Each stack u had to fill was 5 high i believe, and u had to throw 1,2,3 etc to fill the stack properly.

That was it, the only difference was as you did both of these levels multiple times, everything became faster.

If anyone can help, I would be very grateful - i have happy memories of playing this for hours.
