David Thorpe (loading screen) |programmer = Jon Ritman |artist = Bernie Drummond |composer = Guy Stevens }} Head Over Heels is an action-adventure video game, released by Ocean Software in {{vgy|1987}} for several 8-bit home computers, and subsequently ported to a wide range of formats. The working title for the game was Foot and Mouth.[1] It uses an isometric engine that is similar to the Filmation technique first developed by Ultimate. Head Over Heels is the second isometric game by Jon Ritman and Bernie Drummond, after their earlier Batman computer game released in {{vgy|1986}}. In {{vgy|1994}} another isometric video game by Ritman and Drummond, Monster Max, was released for the Nintendo Game Boy.[2]GameplayDrummond contributed some famously surreal touches, including robots (controlled by push switches) that bore a remarkable resemblance to the head of Prince Charles on the body of a Dalek. Other surreal touches include enemies with the heads of elephants and staircases made of dogs that teleport themselves away as soon as Head enters the room.[3] PlotHeadus Mouthion (Head) and Footus Underium (Heels) are two spies from the planet Freedom. They are sent to Blacktooth to liberate the enslaved planets of Penitentiary, Safari, Book World and Egyptus, and then to defeat the Emperor to prevent further planets falling under his rule. Captured and separated, the spies are placed in the prison headquarters of Castle Blacktooth and must first escape, then break through the market to the orbiting Moonbase where they can teleport down to the planets to locate and reobtain the stolen crowns. Liberation of the planets and defeat of the Emperor will allow Head and Heels to return to Freedom as heroes. Ritman admits that the storyline lacked real connection to the gameplay. In an interview for Edge, he stated that he "made the whole game up and then added the bullshit in the last ten minutes."{{citation needed|date=November 2015}} Critical reaction{{Video game reviews| YSinclair = 9/10[4] | CRASH = 97%[5] | SUser = 9/10[4] | CVG = 34/40[5] | AAction = 95%[6] | rev1 = Zzap!64 | rev1Score = 98%[7] | award1Pub = Crash | award1 = Crash Smash | award2Pub = Sinclair User | award2 = SU Classic | award3Pub = Zzap!64 | award3 = Gold Medal | award4Pub = CVG | award4 = CVG Hit! | award5Pub = Amstrad Action | award5 = 10th best game of all time[8] | award6Pub = Amiga Power | award6 = 24th best game of all time[9] }}
