THE OOZE

A scientist named Dr. Craine is about to blow the whistle on a secret plot by The Corporation to spread a chemical plague amongst the general populace when the director of The Corporation poures chemical waste on him in the hope of silencing him for good.  Dr. Caine awakens to find he is a puddle of ooze with a monstrous head. Now he needs to kill the enemies and solve puzzles to collect all the DNA helices ro reclaim his human form or else he's in for an even worse fate of becoming a lava lamp.

Dumb, I know. But you stretch and spit ooze to obliterate enemies and see to it that your puddle doesn't get too small or your head directly hit, and it was loads of fun to play on my friend's console. Some would probably argue in favour of this title being more of a dying breath than a swansong for the Sega Genesis system, but its originality stood the test of time well. I would personally do away with the head, and find some other way to move puddle parts to confuse the player even further, but again it was the easiest way to conform the concept with your average Sega platfomer.
