View Full Version : Can't Remember Name of Old PC Game!

I used to play this (I believe to be 90's) PC game that started with your character continually jumping over pits to get to the right side and once at the very right side you see a black panther and must turn around and run the opposite direction past all the same pits while it chases you. If you make it to the opposite end you jump onto a rope swing and the panther jumps and falls in the pit. If you fall in any of the pits you die and get this weird dying scenario where it looks like it is underwater and these strange black tentacle reef things are moving back and forth and grabbing toward you.

As the game continues, you get to pick up guns (maybe laser guns) and fight some type of bad guys (maybe robots or skeletons... I don't really remember). You can also get force fields that you put in front of you and the bad guys also can get them, but you can stick your gun in front of the force field and still shoot through it.

That is basically all that I can remember from the game. I thought that the game was called Pitfall or something related to that but that doesn't look like the game when I search it on Google.

Thanks for taking the time to try to help me out.

Yea, I mentioned that I thought it was Pitfall but I've looked up Pitfall and every sequel of Pitfall for every system and I can't find any pictures or screenshots that look like the one I played for PC. All of the pictures look very PG and lame, the game that I am talking about was dark and looked different.
