A-----INTRODUCTION
*******************************************************************************
In the fall of 1994, while in the 4th grade, I was sent to the hospital for two
days due to a case of pneumonia. The stay was not too bad. On hand was my
gameboy with a copy of second Mario Land game. The hospital also had an SNES.
It was sent to my room. Before I could have my father bring me some carts from
my private stash, I had to play the hospital freebies. They had Super Mario
World. *yawn* They also had Captain Novolin. Captain Novolin. In the time
since that hospital stay, I thought I had dreamt it up -- Purely a product of
the mind on medication. Captain N, not to be confused with our Saturday
morning pal, is a super hero with diabetes. He fights through junk-food
disguised aliens sent by Blubberman while coping with his disease. See!
Outrageous. On paper, this game really does seem like the product of a
delusional mind. It is not. IT'S REALZ!
Dismayed at the size of the hospital's SNES game collection, I donated Star
Fox, Dinocity, and Gradius III at my departure. I figured sicker kids than
me deserved real entertainment. But maybe they didn't have it as bad as I
thought... but I digress.
Captain Novolin is the next script in a series of guides which shun the norm
in favor of the weird and the whacked, and even the fantastic. In a way, this
game is a sort of a spiritual brother of Wally Bear and the NO! Gang. Like
Wally Bear, Captain Novolin is designed to educated youngsters through the
video game medium. However, one of these titles does a good job and one does
not. Wally Bear is terrible, but funny. Captain Novolin actually contains
some really interesting information. The controls are simple but responsive.
The sprites and the play area are colorful. I know. I know. Games that are
product tie ins/product related, like Captain Novolin, are always terrible
except, maybe, Cool Spot on the Genesis. Captain Novolin manages to be a
solid title, as unlikely as it seems.
Somebody, please tell me this. Is Captain Novolin the Bad Street Brawler's
diabetic brother? Captain N looks just like our ol' pal Duke! Heck, he
even gets a key to a city as a reward -- just like Duke (Granted, Duke would
rather have a burger...)
