This is one of the earliest PC games I think I ever played! While I don't remember a huge number of details, I do remember the feeling of whimsy and fun. Oh but I couldn't ever forget the sound design - like his little voice as he jumped and spun around! I really enjoyed playing through the colourful platforming levels to find and save Lomax's pals. I never thought about it until now, but I might attribute this game to my current love of platformers (ranging from Mario to Hollow Knight). This game was originally my brother's - I still have the physical CD-ROM. Unfortunately, even if I had a disc drive in my PC, this game wouldn't be compatible today. So having Lomax release on GOG would absolutely make my year!
It's the greatest platformer 2D of all time! I played it for 5 years straight - and would love to show it to my family! It's hard - but also balanced, compared to Rayman 1.
I still have the CD somewhere. It's one of my favourite games of all time. The music, the graphics, the level designs... It was just such a fun platformer. It was also fairly challenging, but it felt so great when you finally beat a series of levels and moved on to the next set of levels in a new map.
That was the very first game that I have played by myself. It was to hard for me and never ended it. I would be very happy to play again after years and finally passed it.

Jedna z pierwszych gier jakie grałem w życiu i to jeszcze na W98. Przesympatyczna gra i jak na tamte czasy rozbudowana. Można ją ściągnąć na stronach ze starymi grami jednakże zazwyczaj zawierają one wirusy. Może się spodobać graczom którzy jeszcze o niej nie słyszeli.
Those games also need your vote!
