Looking for a side scroller, forgot the name

[pieter3d]

Hey all,

I'm looking for a side scrolling game. This is what I remember

-320x200 resolution
-smallish character you control by 4 arrow keys (up = jump)
-monsters in 1st level are gobs of green ooze moving around on the platforms
-the point is to collect yellow balls, and keys that open doors to new areas
- there are a few kinds of potion you can grab, one lets you fly, one lets you walk upside down, one lets you jump high (i think).
-First level has a starry, black/blue background, platforms are ground color with grass ontop.
-Has cool music

I was fairly certain it began with a 'P' , but could be otherwise.

Thanks.

This kind of reminds me of Hocus Pocus.

Question, is this windows or DOS? In 1993 there was a game released for windows named "Micro Man" or something of the sort. The main character was Bob Jones and it fits your description perfectly.

I tried Micro man, but that's a windows game.Also, micro man shoots, something the character in my game didnt.
Thanks tho.

Same here...

But im pretty sure it was a later episode not the 1st one.

Could also be
Duke nukem, Crystal caves

but he states he was sure it started with 'P' was that just the .exe file?

its not crystal caves either.
