Cool Spot, the 7 Up mascot, stars in Spot Goes to Hollywood, a 1995 isometric platformer by Eurocom for the Sega Genesis. The sequel to Cool Spot leaves the 2D plane behind as Spot jumps through different movie-themed worldsโfrom horror to sci-fiโcollecting spots and stars while avoiding enemies.
How to Play
Your objective is to find the exit in each movie set while collecting as many red spots as possible. By default on the Sega Genesis, use the D-pad to navigate the isometric environment, and the A, B, or C buttons to jump and fire your attack. In your browser, these are mapped to the arrow keys to move, and the Z, X, or C keys for your actions.
Tips
- Use Spot’s shadow to gauge your landings; depth perception in isometric platformers can be tricky.
- Explore corners thoroughly to find hidden stars, which unlock bonus levels and better endings.
