[Old_Schooler]

Here's a rather obscure little platformer that I was able to discover during my browsing over at Abandonsocios. It's called Eat This and I believe was one of the many early platform games that let you use the mouse as a means of aiming. Many platformers at the time STILL would pay no heed to the mouse and stay true to only using the keyboard as a means of movement and offensive actions.

Here's the topic which contains some information about the developer, year of release, and a couple of screenshots.

Mobygames has much more going for it in the way of information, but is sadly lacking in the box shot and screenshot departments.

Shame that this is the only game the developer Image-Line Software did, because introducing the mouse into a platformer game was quite an innovation in platform gaming at the time.
