Game of the Day - Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters



EFTPOTRM for short.  It's a great platform/quasi-isometric shooting game.  You play through different levels rescuing humans and killing the dreaded Robot Monsters.  There are three buttons (fire, jump, duck).  In addition, it took me forever to figure out how to throw the bombs you can collect throughout the game.  You have to push all three buttons at once to do so.  There is some puzzle aspect in the game as you have to throw switches and break open lockers to collect things, get power-ups and operate escalators and other props around the levels.  Strangely, every few levels the game changes into flying a spaceship through an obstacle course - really weird.  In all, the action in the game is great and the graphics are awesome-comic-booky.  Good stuff.
