About: Move over, Commander Keen! Admiral Overalls is a refreshing 2D retro-themed platformer of comedic proportions. Evade deadly foes while wielding your fearsome slingshot loaded with tomatoes!

Description

About: Admiral Overalls was created with the infamous 'Commander Keen' series as inspiration, with plenty of interesting and original thoughts and features tossed into the mix as well. It looks and feels like one of the old DOS-based 4-bit sidescrollers you'd find on an old shareware 3.5" floppy disk, but with plenty more quirky and stylish glitz. Come on and give 'er a try!

History: Admiral Overalls was written entirely during the month of June 2006, for the "Exclusive GeeksWithBlogs Member Game Design Contest". The requirement were that entrants must use an edition of the free Visual Studio Express product line to create a game within the one-month time allotment. Admiral Overalls was not declared the final winner, but it was a heck of a fun trip nonetheless. :)

System Requirements

Most low-end systems should have little problem.
