DEVELOPMENT HISTORY
In reviewing the released and unfinished Mattel Electronics games, INTV
Corp. decided that (1) they wanted a sequel to the very successful
BurgerTime cartridge and (2) they did not want another
Masters of the Universe cartridge.
While a BurgerTime sequel, PizzaTime,
had been started at Mattel, development had been done at the
French office and INTV had no prototype of the game. On the other
hand, INTV did have the prototype of Masters of
the Universe II, done at Mattel Electronics in California.
Coincidentally, BurgerTime and Masters of the
Universe II had both been programmed by Ray Kaestner.
Producer Dave Warhol hired Ray to convert the
Masters sequel into a BurgerTime sequel. The two
of them came up with the rather bizarre concept of Chef Peter Pepper
kicking "food balls" past the bad guys from BurgerTime.
The resulting game, however, introduced in mid-1987, was a winner.
EASTER EGG: Credits will roll automatically if you leave
the title screen up long enough.
