Blockman 1988 is a retro-inspired twin-stick platformer-shooter that's a sequel to a Flash game from 2007, but it's really a prequel.

Join John Q. Blockman is on a quest to rescue hostages from and around the Valleyvale Shopping Mall. Use some of your cunning - no, all of your cunning - to thwart the evil, maybe-French, maybe-Canadian, maybe-Iranian terrorists cell's plot.
