The Amiga version of an arcade game series that I like.
Mr. Do must pick cherries without getting eaten by monsters. To pass to the next level, you need to collect all the bonuses, or find a diamond (rare), or kill all the bad guys, by crushing them under tree trunks or by throwing a magic ball at their face.
Like Qix, you draw a line on your way and if you manage to form a closed frame, hidden bonuses may appear. The original game (Mr. Do, 1982) was seen from the side, like Dugger. We get roughly the same game style but seen from above, in pseudo-3D levels.

As always, the arcade version is more punchy. The color palette is also less harmful to the retina.
