The Adventures Of Captain Comic

Our Manual Critic Crow T. Robot Reads: Succeed, and you will be honored as a hero once more; fail, and three thousand years of galactic peace and prosperity crumble to comic-uh-cosmic dust.
Tom Servo Says: Those who play this game will have a lucky-uh-sucky day.
Captain America Says: Do not get this puny weakling's game mixed up with mine.
Captain Kirk Says: I...can't...believe...the...power...of...this...man. Scottie! Prepare the photon torpedoes!
The Bent Kangaroo Says: Don't worry Kirk!  He can't duck!

What Kind Of Game Is This?

A platform adventure, based off of the shareware PC game with the same character.

What Sets This Apart From Other Platformers?

The game is not linear. Think Rygar. You have to collect various items in various worlds in order to proceed through in some areas. In fact, the final dungeon is near the beginning of the game, but, of course, you can't complete it at that time.  

What Sets This Game In The Trash?

The play-control is hideous. Jumping is very high and quick, and timing short jumps is a chore. Enemies come flying onto the screen before you can react to them, even when approaching slowly. There is only one way to kill an enemy, and that is with your Blastola.  You cannot shoot up, down, or diagonally. As mentioned by my alter ego, you cannot duck. And, you need to hit the mute button to keep from shaking uncontrollably.

So Who Would You Recommend This To?

Those who don't mind hideous play-control. In fact, those who fit that description please contact me, as I have hundreds of games you'll love.
