Gorillaz: NoodleFight (2001, Flash)
115NoodleFight is a side-scrolling platform game starring Gorillaz band member Noodle. During the shoot for the music video of Clint Eastwood, the co-star stunt ghoulies get carried away and drag off Murdoc to their lair. It's up to Noodle to track Murdoc down and return him safely to Gorillaz' KONG Studios. The player is simply required to get from one side of the level to the other by jumping over obstacles and across gaps. The player controls Noodle primarily with the arrow keys to jump, and more left and right. The player starts the game with 3 lives and 3 continues, the player can find additional lives that they can pick up in each level. Once the player runs out of lives and continues it's game over, and the player has to start the game from the very beginning.

The Clint Eastwood song at the start of the game was muted. This game is seemingly impossible to finish. I was able to get to level 4 at best.
Some discussions online mention that the game works too fast on newer operating systems or computers. But I tried the game on older hardware and it appeared to make no difference. System I tried the game on: HP Desktop (2003ish) Celeron 2.60 GHz, 2GB RAM, Windows XP SP3.
-- Information from archive.org uploader--
This is an extraction of the Gorillaz Noodle Fight flash game that was included with the Smash Hits! Chillin' Out - Summer 2001 cover mount CD-ROM in the enhanced data portion.
Included are the original Flash 5.0 executable found on the CD-ROM and an extracted SWF file from that executable. A read me text file is also included which contains information about the game and the developer, Zombie Games.
Note: There appears to be an issue when running this game on newer operating systems wherein the game runs too fast.
