The Adventures of Captain Comic
The Adventures of Captain Comic is a platforming game. You play Captain Comic and collect incredible treasures on the planet Nambi. You try to withstand the onslaught of opponents. You jump from one to the next Wauffen upgrade and collect items that will help you.
The zones
The game "The Adventures of Captain Comic" is divided into several main areas. Each of these areas is divided into three small zones. At the transition, the game plays a little melody and marks a safe point. At this point the game removes all enemies from the screen.
Items to get ahead
Unfortunately, the items you collect aren't just normal gimmicks. You have to find every item, otherwise you won't be able to beat the game. Anyone who has the habit of rushing through levels will not be happy. Otherwise, when you get to the end of the level, you will notice that you are missing something to get to the next level. The items are sometimes very good Background hidden so you can't tell it's not part of the background.
The graphic
The environment is not very nicely designed. Nevertheless, it is represented in many ways. The graphics are reminiscent of old PC games.
The development
At the beginning Michael Denio wrote an interactive demo of a platform game entitled "The Adventures of Captain Pixel of the Galactic Security Patrol in 34010 AD" for the TMS34010. The credits refer to the year 1987. Originally, “The Adventures of Captain Comic” was an experiment to find out whether an arcade game would work on a standard IBM PC with an EGA card and whether you could earn money with the game .
Conclusion
The game is highly recommended for platforming fans, even if the graphics don't look very good. This is a nice side-scrolling platformer for in between NES-Play very well.
