I remember when I was a kid getting a platformer game for probably windows 9x on a cd at a dollar store I think it was deal$ and all I know is that the main character was an animal of some sort and it was set in nature areas including a swamp I think. I remember a lot of green colors in it. It doesn't seem like it would have been well heard of. Anyway it is probably unlikely anyone would know what this is but I wanted to give it a shot. Thanks.

Do you remember any other details?

There were plenty of plataformers in that era, and swamp was one of the required areas.

Games I can remember, for example: Jill of the Jungle, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure: Forbidden Planet.

Im pretty sure it was a windows game and not a dos game. Probably sometime in the mid 90s to early 2000s. Im thinking it was probably a game by a small company and I remember lots of grass and trees. I dont remember if it was cheese or worth mentioning lol.

This is a bit of a long shot, but was it one of the Frogger remakes?

No its a 2d sidescroller. Maybe I need to search through giantbomb or something.

Hmmm. Some others that spring to mind are Adventures of Lomax, Bug!, and Claw.

Not sure how green these games are, but you do control animals.

I meant mobygames. I searched through every listing on the mobygames link but its definitely not on there. Probably by some small company.

You could definitely give more details. You gave more explanation that it is probably unknown game than about the game itself. And only after few posts you say it is 2D platformer. See, you surely can give more details. What is about, what some parts of game looked like, do some drawing or something...

I remember playing the shareware version, but I thought it was released on shareware discs on Brazil only...
At least there's a lot of green on it, I think I still have this game around somewhere...
