RETRO GAMEPLAY AND 1V1 PIZZA COMBAT



The Final Specimen is a comedic sci-fi adventure game in the style of the classic 2D platformers of the '90s. Packed with whimsical settings and eccentric characters, this energetic, challenging title brings an exciting take to old-school gaming.

The story begins when our hero, a young earthling, is transported to a distant planet. After facing sudden assault from the world's inhabitants, he soon finds out that his arrival is no coincidence. He is the only one who can prevent a nefarious alien foe from unleashing a terrible plot to rain destruction upon their home.

The game's environments range from interstellar highways and sprawling cities to overgrown catacombs and creepy basements filled with enemies who want your head. From rope swings to disappearing platforms, there is never a shortage of new obstacles to navigate. And if the ability to punch your enemies' lights out isn't enough, you can always collect ammunition: your personal stash of bombs and more bombs.

You are the culmination of years of alien experimentation. You are the only human who stands a chance. You are THE FINAL SPECIMEN.

Not recommended Nov 30, 2018
I like the gameplay of this game, and it definetly has it appeal. It's really goofy, and it reminds me of something you would have watched on newgrounds. I'm not a fan of the graphics, and I know it's supposed to be that way. It's such a weird game to me, but the worst part has to be the music. I absolutely hate the music in this game, it's just so obnoxious and repetitive. It made me not want to continue at all. I'm a 90s kid, and this definetly made me feel like I was playing a low budgeted 90s game where you find at a flea market or something. The game is decent, but I just don't see myself recommending it. I feel bad, because the developers probably did his best to replicate that 90's type of pc gaming feeling. Which they succesfully did. I grew up playing snes capcom games, and I never really played games on pc back then. I was just never a fan of those pc games with questionalable graphics, and art style. This is one of those games where the gameplay is great, but the art style and music did annoy me.

This game is a perfect dose of nostalgia, hilarity, and challenge! While it may be a colorful throwback style play, it's difficult and brings about some interesting enemies to defeat. The artistry is top notch and very well done, can definitely tell that the artist put a lot of work into the design of the game. I recommend!

The Final Specimen Rocks!! Started playing when it first came out. Then proceeded to the "Horse" Mode. Psycho chickens n S*#t, as well as some crazy cut scenes, lol. One of the most fun games I have played in many moons! At first was expecting a whacky adventure, and got one! A bit sneaky and tricky in parts. Love the sound track!!

I'm not much of a gamer but it did hearken me back to the days of 90's PC games, not only that but it had a certain Rick & Morty, meets Mario Bros in Pitfall land vibe that was pretty fun! I'd recommend to 90's PC junkies and old time gaming system users like myself who enjoy having to figure out entertaining levels. Love the music!
