Bio Menace - Thrillogy - Apogee Software's Bio Menace (1993, MS-DOS) ported to the Amiga (HIGH END)

The classic MS-DOS side-scroller Bio Menace, originally published by Apogee Software in 1993, has been un-officially ported over to the Commodore Amiga by Astair86. Amiga owners can now experience Snake Logan's entire pixelated battle against mutant hordes, as this new port features all three original episodes in a completely finished, fully playable state. Because the port utilizes the reconstructed game source code, the developer has made the underlying engine code available under the GPLv2 license.

Bio Menace - Classic action game from the 90's gets a Cola Powered Gamer review

Apogee during the early 90s was considered the king of platform games. While most of them can be considered family-friendly, Bio Menace is more action-oriented and definitely not PG-13. Developed by Jim Norwood, with help from id Software (mainly John Carmack), and published by Apogee Games, it was released in 1993. The game was developed under the working title “Bio Hazard”, it was supposed to be released in November of 1991, but due to modifying the engine (the same one used in Commander Keen in Goodbye Galaxy), it spent two years more years in development. Excluding the engine and the music (by Bobby Prince), the majority of the game was created by its designer, Jim Norwood.
