I'm Gaming Jay: Youtube gamer, let's player, fan of retro games, and determined optimist... Normally I'm working my way through the book 1001 VIDEO GAMES YOU MUST PLAY BEFORE YOU DIE in my Let's Play 1001 Games series. This is a great book with a ton of classic retro games but it doesn't have everything and it's even missing some of my favorite video games. Hence, in Saturday Afternoon Gaming, screw it, I'm just going to play whatever I want!
In this series I will be playing some of the best retro games that don't appear in the 1001 VIDEO GAMES YOU MUST PLAY BEFORE YOU DIE book. So pull up a chair, slap on your headphones, and join me as babble aimlessly through some of my most favourite classic games! And hey, if you have ideas or suggestions feel free to leave them in the comments below. I'm always looking for more games to try! Today we play...
Jill of the Jungle
from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_of_the_Jungle
Jill of the Jungle is a trilogy of scrolling platform computer games released in 1992 by Epic MegaGames. It was intended to rival platform games previously released as shareware by id Software and Apogee Software. The three episodes in the trilogy are Jill of the Jungle, Jill Goes Underground, and Jill Saves the Prince. Though each game was released separately, the three were combined into Jill of the Jungle: The Complete Trilogy a year later.
Tim Sweeney was inspired to a Nintendo-style game featuring a female playable character as a unique feature. The game started out as a platforming level editor.[1] Lacking the skills to do the art and music, Sweeney hired four people.[2]
Jill of the Jungle: The Complete Trilogy was released for free at GOG.com on November 2, 2018.
A sequel, Jill of the Jungle II, was being produced at a point. However, its developers decided to change it into an original property, titled Vinyl Goddess from Mars, which was published by Union Logic in 1995.
