Prince of Persia games, Nosferatu, Tomb Raider GBC, OnEscapee, Heart of the Alien, Bermuda Syndrome... more I'm forgetting. Not many were all that good, though.
Karateka, but it's not a platformer so NEVERMIND.
EDIT: OH SHIT, the Dark Castle games! And Impossible Mission?

| Oh man Cycle Dark Castle was so rad. I have the sound effect for the Black Knight throwing beer cans down at you ingrained in my head forever. I must've beaten those two games like a million times when I was a kid but fuck if I could do it now. |
One curious thing about Dark Castle is how widely the quality of the ports varied. In the DOS version (the one I mainly played) you didn't aim rocks with the mouse, but instead the 1-9 keys on your keyboard each threw a rock at a different fixed angle. And the Genesis port is an abomination, one of the worst games for the system. |
I've only played the CDi version, so I can't really comment on the quality of the port, but let me say here that throwing rocks called for some pretty intense standoffs if only because aiming rocks was impossible with the controller (or remote ha ha). |
guys the original mac versions are the only ones that matter. it's useless without a mouse for one thing, plus the graphics and sound are half the charm which are missing from most versions. there were two black and white games originally, and a fantastic colour remake of the first game was released for later macs. recently, a third installment was released! like a couple months ago, it's been in development since like 2000... i was looking forward to it and now i can't play it because it's mac only! a windows port is in the works, though. i'll buy it as soon as it comes out.
TRIVIA: dark castle was the first game to use the WASD + MOUSE setup. THANKS, MACINTOSH. |
