help identifying a game

Me and my brother were reminiscing about a video game we used to play when we were around 5-6 on the pc. This places the game as 20 years old or so. For the life of us neither of us could come up with a name but together remember the general concept. There were around 4 or 5 characters that you could play as. Of the ones we remember there was a cowboy, a baker, and a astronaut. Now each character you chose you would have to collect an item that was scattered throughout the 2d level, kind of like pacman. When you collected the item and moved, all items above it would fall, this could kill you or the enemies. I'm pretty sure you needed to collect all items before moving on to the next level. At the same time there were enemies scattered throughout the level that were trapped inside a group of items. Thus when you went to grab the items they would be released. They last thing we could come up with were a couple items and enemies. For the cowboy, the items were gold coins and the enemies were guns. For the baker, we weren't 100% sure but we kind of think the items were apples and the enemies were pies.
Thanks in advanced for any help identifying this game. I'm not sure how popular this game was as our searches online came up nill.

Right now RedWolf is going though a mental Rolodex of old video games. He's in some kind of trance just staring off into the wall spiting out random thoughts like some kind of Rain Man.
