Joe Guard (cd-i game)

Produced by DIMA, the same guys behind Christmas Crisis and Christmas Country. Full working prototype of this excellent platformer, offering both vertical and horizontal scrolling. Some assets you can see back in the Family Games backgrounds!

Great platform game with great handling, with a real Mario feeling!

Sweet mother of... that's simply breath taking Bas!!

These graphics look like SPC Vision quality from something like The Apprentice, do the animations run just as smoothly Bas?

oh yeah it's totally playable! It has the same kind of handling like Christmas Country, and it all runs very smooth. The only thing is the lack of background music, the same case as with CCountry.

I don't know how many levels it holds, i've only reached level 2. Since it's a demo in the end, i don't expect too much levels to play with.

The animations are very like the ones as in CCountry, you can recognize the basis of the engine here. A big plus is that you can scroll vertical as well, expanding your play-field a lot!
