The Euro Platformer. Today the term is used with much derision, mostly by console game fans but even by some many 80’s computer games, and well now, now even by me, and we all probably should know better, or should we? Yes, these games had very high difficulty, cheap deaths, a lot of jumping to unknown places and mostly “bad game design” that would have the Retronaughts guys throwing up their arms in disgust. I’m picking to play these on the Atari ST because it's the machine I had and loved but also because it bridged the gap in many ways between the 8bit era and the full 16-bit era with its colorful graphics but decidedly 8-bit sound. The ST was a machine built for 1985 with very little concern about what would come next. Sometimes I jokingly call the games of this time the forgotten 12-bit era. I will note, and briefly discuss these games, if available, on other systems, because you really should check them out on the machine of your choice, but the ST versions are the ones we will be looking it today in
