Game Name Help


Recommended Posts

Okay, I was playing this game in 93 on my school computers. I don't think it was educational at all, but it a basic 2D platformer type thing except you went from room to room, not side-scrolling (you could also go vertically up and down to different rooms)

You started off as this guy with goggle-type things (think Cyclops from X-Men) but you looked like an explorer. You could shoot a laser out of the goggles, and you could rebound it off reflector things to hit switches and stuff which would in turn reverse the direction of a treadmill, or open a door, or something like that. Also, there were baddies like lobsters or something that you had to dodge, and you had to pick up pieces of artifact or something.

I think there were four temples on this map, and there was an artifact in each temple (I'm really guessing on the articfact, I know there was something you got) and once you got all four, the last temple thing would appear on the map and it was a combination of all four temples. (One temple was full on treadmill action, for example)

Another thing I'm really stretching is I think the main baddie at the end was like an small evil scientist dude with a massive head.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?

It might've been part of a series, because I also remember playing a game with the same main dude that you play, and the bad guy being the same small evil scientist with a big head, but in it you were outside with a butterfly net.

But I'm much more interested in the game in my original post :)

Just a thought, but the screenshot is from the arcade version of Tutankham. COuld he have been playing a PC port of it, which would've looked kinda cheezy in 93, I imagine...
