Hayden's Adventure

Hayden's Adventure is a platforming game developed by Suzuku Entertainment for the TLB2 game console and published by Murphy Computing.

Plot
The game takes place in the Early 2000's, Hayden, a 21-year-old nobody, accidentally stumbles upon an evil organization that plots to take over the world. Hayden panics, and was caught, but luckily escaped. However, since he knows who they are and what their plans is, they reveal themselves as "The Others", challenging Hayden to try and stop them if he dares. He quietly accepts and he sets off to his adventure to save his City from being turned into a wasteland.

Gameplay
You, as Hayden, has to move your way to the end of the stage, you can defeat enemies by either landing on top on an enemy, or striking then with a weapon, bosses are only affected by weapons (right before the boss, you are given a weapon if you don't have any, a random item is given), one hit and Hayden is dead (unless he has a shield), the Game has 8 worlds with 3 levels each, with a third ending with a boss battle.

Controls (default, it's customizable)

 * B - Jump
 * C - Shoot (if Hayden has a gun equipped, Hold to perform certain actions with certain guns)
 * D - Run Faster
 * A - Switch Weapon window (Hold to make the window last, letting go will close it, getting you back to gameplay)

Difficulty

 * Easy - Hayden began with a shield with each life, and begins with 9 lives, but the game ends after the stage 5 boss, with a Bad Ending in which Hayden falls into a trap and dies tragically.
 * Normal - Hayden normally starts without a shield (unless he dies on the same stage too much), and begins with 5 lives, the game can be completed. The ending is a good ending, where Hayden realizes he's now a hero and not a nobody anymore, and had his first hope ever in 3 years, but "The Others" will swear revenge.
 * Hard - Same with Normal, but shields are not available at all and if you die before the boss, you start the stage all over (bosses have checkpoints).

Power-Ups

 * Shield - Allows Hayden to survive getting hit once, in the 8-bit games, it looks like that Hayden is inside a blue static circle, in the Super Box games (Hayden 4: Hybrid Trouble!, Hayden 5: The Super-Menace, Hayden 6: Ancestral Visit), it's a defensive bubble surrounding Hayden
