Overview
Description

Mutant Mudds Deluxe is a vibrant 12-bit action platformer where Max uses a jetpack to flip between foreground and background layers, creating a unique dimensional gameplay experience. Armed with a water cannon, he blasts through enemies and hunts hidden Water Sprites across colorful, pixel‑perfect worlds. Collect all the Water Sprites to cleanse the Mutant Mudds and restore the world, while enjoying tight controls, retro visuals, and challenging level design that rewards exploration and skill.

Nebulus puts you in control of a small green hero tasked with destroying eight toxic towers threatening ideal colony planets. You climb the exterior of each tower, jumping onto moving ledges while battling enemies, then plant explosives at the summit. Between towers you pilot an MK.7 submarine in side‑scrolling collect‑‘em‑up segments, adding variety and bonus points. The game was revolutionary for its pseudo‑3D rotating tower graphics, delivering a unique visual experience for its era.
