Snoopy is a 1984 computer game for the Commodore 64

Snoopy is a simple platform game
taking place over 20 single-screen levels. In each level, Snoopy's job is to travel from the left edge of the screen to the right edge. Various dangers, both stationary and mobile, hinder his progress. After 20 levels have been completed, the sequence starts again from the beginning, but this time at a faster pace.
The game's only relation to the Peanuts comic strip is the main sprite
