OpenJazz is a free, open-source version of the classic Jazz Jackrabbit™ games. OpenJazz can be compiled on a wide range of operating systems, including Windows 98/Me/XP and Linux.
Jazz Jackrabbit is a PC platform game. Produced by Epic Games (then Epic MegaGames), it was first released in 1994. The fast-paced, colourful gameplay proved popular, and the game won PC Format's Arcade Game of the Year award. Many people still fondly recall the shareware versions.
Features
- A jackrabbit on steroids that runs even quicker than Sonic. This means that it has even more blast processing.
- OpenJazz in action on the PS Vita.
- Jazz also shoots so no jumping on enemies in Sonic fashion.
- Very colourful levels that have secret areas which you may explore.
- 6 episodes + 4 extra episodes along with bonus stages.
- Many other great stuff such as an awesome soundtrack and great 2D graphics.
