About this game

Captain Dynamo is an action platform game in which the retired superhero Captain Dynamo sets out to recover a stolen collection of diamonds from the genius Austen van Flyswatter.

The game features vertically scrolling platform levels filled with traps and around 50 diamonds each. Collecting more diamonds increases the score, but reaching some requires careful planning and the use of booster pads to access higher sections. The game includes 12 levels, or 6 in the Amiga version.
