Strip by: Nikumubeki

{Inside the CGA version of The Perilous Pit in Commander Keen 4, Garfield is using the pogo stick in the caverns. Jon is standing on a nearby cliff}
Jon: Garfield, this is not the place to pogo. You're gonna die here.
{In the next panel, Garfield has pogo'd himself up the caverns, but has been struck down by a mushroom. His body, flattened by the impact, is lying on the ground}
Screen prompt: You didn't make it
Screen prompt: Try Again

Based on an obscure screensaver and gameplay footage [some NSFW language in links].
