Adventures of Captain Comic, The   1988
User rating: 8 DOS Shareware (full version) Platform
Developed by Michael A. Denio
Published by Michael A. Denio
Graphics: EGA 320×200×16c 

Captain Comic was one of the first DOS platformers to gain popularity. The backgrounds are unusually detailed for EGA graphics, and the game is noted for being extremely large. Playing the galactic hero, Captain Comic, your mission is to recover three treasures from the planet Omsoc, which have been stolen by an alien race known as Tambians, and taken back to their planet. Your character can have up to five shots on the screen at a time, though he has a shot meter that can be used up, and recharges when he isn't shooting.
