Did anyone else die to the pirrhanas as they decided to explore the limits of the first map and swim into the deep end of the ocean? :D

No, but I got killed by the piranhas the first few times I tried the second mission (saving the smarties from falling into the deep water). It took me a few tries to figure out how to use the jetpack properly.

You cant swimm with the Mecs!! you have to accomplish the missions without entering in the deep water.

I don't remember how I got this game, I still have the original disks. Maybe with some hardware who knows. But the first time I played this game it was the funniest game I had ever come across, and it still holds true today. Awesome.
