2D side scrolling action games are a rarity in today’s market. Gamers are losing touch with the roots of gaming with each passing generation of consoles. Flying Hamster II is just such a game, a 2D side scrolling action/adventure game for Windows via Steam.
What gamers may best recognize Flying Hamster II being is a cross between Metroid and Mario. The graphics are decidedly cartoony and the action is fast and furious. Exploration is key to succeeding in Flying Hamster II. Rather than just running from left to right, you will have to go up, down, left and right through the levels.
Another title that retro gamers might be able to relate Flying Hamster II to is Popful Mail on the Sega CD. Check the screens and then head over to Steam to cast your vote as Flying Hamster II is currently sitting on Steam Greenlight.
