Never played Cosmo's Adventure? 84 cents'll fix that :-)

Comment below if you remember Cosmo, and let people know how good it is.

I ask, because unless you played "Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure" near when it came out, there's a good chance you're not even familiar with it. It didn't get the media coverage of Apogee's bigger games like Duke Nukem.

But- it is absolutely worth going back and playing it if you haven't. While it is set in a cute sci-fi world that kids can enjoy, it's a difficult platformer with creative elements including wall climbing.

Certain games shouldn't be overlooked- especially for 84 cents!!

You can get it on Steam for 84 cents.
Or if you are willing to pay 1 cent more, you can get it on GOG :-D

P.S. Reminder that I'm not affiliated with Steam, GOG, or Apogee. You can also see that I own these games, as I keep my libraries public: https://cynic.tv/game_library/

Is "Wacky Wheels" the Mario Kart of MSDOS? Yes, and it's awesome! (Bronze Cup & Wacky Duck Shoot)

"Wacky Wheels" is an awesome kart racer from 1994.
It's a charming 3D racer done in a SNES-Mode-7 Style.
It has split-screen, so you can play with a friend right there on the same keyboard! You can also race against the NPCs.
I show off the classic tournament modes in this video, but I also show off Wacky Wheels's take on a battle mode, where you chase duck-racers down and shoot 'em!

If you've never played this one, it's a lot of fun. It does suffer from some low framerates, but if you play the maps at 6HP first you can learn the maps and then advance to 12HP and deal with the fact that you won't see the turns with as mush lead time.

The one I played here was the Steam version (on sale right now for 84 cents), but you can also get it on GOG (currently on sale for $2.99)
