TRIVIA

Nuts & Milk was released on July 28, 1984 in Japan. It was the first third-party game released on the FamiCom.
Yogurt is Milk's fiancee.
Round 06 shows slightly deformed name 'NUTS'.
'MILK' on round 07 is formed way better.
Round 14's layout shows 'KIKU', a pseudonym of Kikuta Masaaki, one of Hudson's programmers.
Round 22 shows bricks forming number 22.
Round 25 shows '1 + 1 = 1' which is a wrong result as 1 added to 1 is actually 2.
Round 27 has a question mark.
Round 37 was meant to have a formed number 37, but the bricks and other decorations show serious deformations.
Round 50 shows the word 'END'.

SCORING
Apple or banana 800 points
Helicopter (game B only) 500 points
Jump over an enemy 100 points
TIPS AND TRICKS

* Access a secret message: start a new game and press Start to pause it. Then, hold Right + B on second controller and Left + A + B + Select on first controller. Afterward, press Start and a message saying: VERSION 1 1984 05 29 BY KIKU. This date may refer to the first build from May 1984.

* You don't need to pick all the fruit up during bonus rounds. You'll get an extra life even if you don't pick any up as long as you reach Yogurt screaming 'Help'.

* Game B features 2 flying objects: zeppelins and helicopters. You can pick the helicopter up for 500 points (it doesn't substitute the fruit you have to take, but it's not necessary to complete the stage), but don't touch the zeppelin. Don't touch the fireballs either.

* Don't press [SELECT]: doing so will skip the round, but you'll not see the congratulatory screen after round 50, having to complete all 50 rounds again starting over from round 01.

* Round 24 will be easy as long as you follow that rule: don't fall down to the enemies. Round 40 follows the similar rule.
