Sin Surfing was my favourite community games until I came across Johnny Platform and his biscuit antics.
A game of platforming and puzzling to test your observation and dexterity and there are 50 levels in which to do this. Each level is a static screen that contains enemy robots, these are the guys that want all the biscuits, an exit, that you unlock by destroying the robots, and lots of cups of coffee to collect to boost your lives tally.
Johnny presents an addictive and challenging game that's a lot of fun to play. There’s a solid learning curve and, thankfully, some save points too. It plays extremely well, with a perfect sense of momentum as you double jump around the screen and it's all very nicely presented.
200 Microsoft Points, that’s £1.70, and it’s yours. Try the demo and you can play the first 20 levels. This will give you a flavour of what’s on offer.
At £1.70 you can’t really go wrong with Johnny Platform's Biscuit Romp and the fact is that this is a superb game that will keep you entertained for hours.
You could of course go to the Ishisoft website and download the game for free. Johnny was first developed for the Nintendo DS and I’d imagine that it’s playable with an M3, an R4 or via emulation. Still, I’d heartily recommend that you spend the £1.70, the game is more than worth it, and help support a new game designer.
Hands up if you haven’t even tried out a community game. Come on don’t be shy. Right, now stand up, slap yourself around the back of the head and go and have a look at Johnny Platform’s biscuit Romp. Oh and check out Sin Surfing while you’re at it. After that get on the Gameov3r FORUM and tell us what you think.
