Note
The game features eight stages that repeat endlessly.
Stage 6 spells out “SATOH,” which is presumably the surname of the programmer who worked on this version of the game.
Trivia: Back in the day, if a player scored over 1 million points in the game, wrote down the score, and sent a screenshot showing the score to Telenet Japan, they would be awarded an American Truck Gold License Card.
