Cool Spot

Cool Spot is a single-player platform game in which the player controls the title character. Spot can jump and can attack by throwing soda bubbles in any direction. Spot can also cling to and climb various things by jumping up in front of them. In each level the player must rescue other cool spots, who look exactly alike, from their cages.

In order to do so, the player is required to collect a certain number of "spots" that changes (usually increasing) as the game progresses. "Spots" are placed around the level in large quantities. The player's health is monitored by a humorous Spot face that gradually bends forward and eventually falls from its position as damage occurs. Damage is taken by touching enemies and their projectiles and certain other obstacles.

Pelit gave Cool Spot a score of 82%, and summarized it as "one of the most enjoyable platform games in a long time".

In 1995, Total! ranked the SNES version of the game 65th on its list of the "Top 100 SNES Games", calling it "the game that Dave Perry really showed his talents off with. Not deep, but a great laugh." In the same year, MegaZone included Cool Spot on its list of the "Top 50 Games in History", calling the game a "gorgeous platformer" and praising its animation.
