On the up-side, the jumping movement works well, and is accompanied with cool sound effects-a cartoon style boing combined with the noise of a car screeching-absolutely fabulous. Despite their simplicity, the controls do feel rather jerky, and the camera angle can be disorienting if you move too quickly, so I feel this game would have played much more smoothly if the control speed had been slower. You can also spit out nuts that you collect by pressing ‘A’, in order to defend yourself from other squeezils who might be blocking your path, but it’s fairly easy to get past them without too much trouble. You move around using the arrow keys on the keyboard and use the spacebar to jump. The controls in Squeezils are very simple.
The Great Flaming Nut unleashes his wrath on the peaceful valley woodland GAMEPLAYīeginning on a stone pillar in the middle of the ocean, you are put in charge of a single squeezil and tasked with finding the coveted shiny golden rocks whilst also managing to survive. Whether they ultimately prevail is up to you, as you guide them over rocks, make them jump onto special transport vehicles, and watch them explore the wonders of nature.
You control the squeezils, constantly hungry little critters who must set out in search for shiny golden rocks to feed the nutty demi-god. Squeezils tells the story of a bunch of squirrel-weasel hybrids who reside in a peaceful woodland valley until one day, the Great Flaming Nut comes and unleashes his wrath. Squeezilswas developed by Protozoa and published by Inscape in 1997, a time when 3D graphics were the the best thing since sliced bread. As a child, I remember how fascinated I was with this game, and it may have been one of the first 3D games I had ever played.
That same CD also had playable demos of other games which included: Decathlon, Captain Quazar, You Don’t Know Jack, Diablo, The Neverhood, Road Rash, Fire Fight, Drowned God, Ravage D.C.X., Flight Unlimited, Hellbender, Monster Truck Madness, War Wind, Free Enterprise, and Deathdrome. Squeezils (Hold Onto Your Nuts!)is a 3D action-adventure game that I first got my hands on via the Games Sampler 2 for Windows 95 CD.
