In honor of the tattoo on my right forearm and the celebration of Easter, I present you with a green rabbit with a gun. Makes sense to me.
Jazz Jackrabbit is a 1994 PC game coded by Arjan Brussee and designed by Cliff Bleszinski for Epic MegaGames. It’s a platform shooter, combining the fast-paced movement of Sonic the Hedgehog with the shooting of Shooty McShooterson’s All-Star Shooting Shootacular. The game, distributed via ye olde shareware (first one’s free) kickstarted Bleszinski’s career, enabling him to spend too much money on the old school Transformers I should rightfully have. Also Gears of War.
Hey look, box art (via MobyGames)!
Want to play it yourself? I found it over at RGB Classic Games, playable right in my browser.
The First Five is the first five minutes of a game with light commentary. Once the five minutes are up, so are we.
