HARDCORE GAMING 101 PRESENTS – THE GUIDE TO MASCOT PLATFORMERS – VOL. 1
Hardcore Gaming 101
The Guide to Mascot Platformers focuses on the types of games that came in the wake of Sonic the Hedgehog (and to a lesser extent, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) – lots of sassy, personality-filled anthropomorphic animals that seemed like they were using their games as an audition for a cartoon series. This volume mostly focuses on games from the early-to-mid 1990s (the peak scrimblo era), like Bubsy, Gex, Aero the Acro-bat, Jazz Jackrabbit, Battletoads, James Pond, Rocket Knight Adventures, Zool, Mr. Nutz, and so, so many more. Other related titles include some of gaming’s brief fascination with prehistoric characters like Chuck Rock, DOS heroes (and zeroes) like Commander Keen and Skunny, and plenty of weird little Commodore 64 and Amiga guys.
