The difficulty I had can be blamed on the fact that I'm lame when it comes to some games that require me to move around fast and jump things. Then again, that did happen after you left it idling and he got bored (like Commander Keen and his book ) hehe). I think the only part of this game that I actually found easy was the yo-yo playing part. He is the little red dot dude with cool shades, funky attitude and Mickey Mouse gloves to match. You might remember him off television, the 7-Up mascot. You will have to look everywhere to progress through the game.Īll in all this game is absolutely something to try out. Contrary to other platform games out there, this one is not as straight-forward as it might seem. The object of the game is to complete each level with the highest possible coolness factor, and to free your friends at the end of each mission. Each monster has it's unique attack pattern, and some of them requires several shots before they die. The monsters are also fun and even though they look slow, this game is not an easy stroll in the park. The rest of the graphics is also pretty and some of the backgrounds are simply awesome. Just be sure to let him get bored so that you really can watch the animations go wild.

Watching him go is enough for me, but the game itself is also great. Most of the game code has been placed in creating the different animations for Cool Spot. Even though the game doesn't make me go out and buy insane amounts of 7-up beverage, I still enjoy the game for what it is: a simple and fun jump and run game. Just like Chupa Chups tried to make their products more popular by creating Zool, 7-up created Cool Spot to promote their soda drink. The player character has to collect enough number of cool points throughout each level in order to find and rescue his captured uncool Spot buddies and complete the game. The game objective is fairly simple and straightforward. Cool Spot is a colorful 2D platform game featuring the 7-Up mascot as the main protagonist.
