A remake of Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade
Cosmic needs your help! He has no money, no car, and no respect from his fellow Cosmonaut's! The trouble is, no one believed his tale of discovering a far away planet called "Earth" so it's your job to help him get back there and take some handy snaps! Starting from his home town Old Lino Town, it's Cosmic gameplay all the way in a unique blend of adventure and arcade action plus a whole galaxy of surprises thrown in!

For the most part, a really fun point and click that's pretty chilled out, with a few platform sections thrown in, just to add some mild peril.
However, the final area is a real drag and it knocked any enthusiasm I had for the game out of me. To be fair, it's a fairly short section, however the platforming goes from chilled to bullshit by this point.
Props for the puzzles though, as it's the first point n click that I've played, that isn't ridiculously obtuse at times. A lot of it is just logical stuff, although a couple of puzzles I solved by accident, but I think this is the first one I've ever completed without a guide.
It's got a nice art style and fairly catchy music too. Overall a fun time, but I really wanted it to end by the time I was on the space station.
Played on the Evercade Codemasters Collection.

Played on Game Gear, decent adventure game with poor platforming, held up by funny writing.
