Info Harry II
Description
Info Harry II is a fixed-screen platformer played from a side view with gameplay and visuals reminiscent of the original Duke Nukem. It is the sequel to Info Harry, but has completely different gameplay. Instead, it builds on the gameplay first introduced in the developer's earlier title Chaos.
The game follows the titular hero, Info Harry, on a new mission to thwart the plans of Professor Stecco, a scientist engaged in genetic experimentation. Stecco is on the verge of creating the first genetically engineered human in an attempt to seize power, prompting the European Community to send Harry on what may be his final assignment.
Gameplay combines precision platforming with light combat and puzzle elements. Players navigate hazardous environments filled with spikes, moving blades, ghosts, robots, and electrical traps, collecting items such as hamburgers for extra lives, coins for progression, and letter icons for points. Special keys open doors, and various power-ups assist in advancing through each level.
Controls are keyboard-based, with separate keys for movement, jumping, and shooting. Points are awarded for collecting specific items, while avoiding or neutralizing hazards is essential for survival.
