About

Based on the cartoon series of the same name, Captain Planet and the Planeteers are environmental protectors. Each Planeteer is endowed with a special elemental power which is used to combat pollution and preserve the enviroment. When the Planeteers powers combine they summon Captain Planet, a guardian of the Earth. The powers of Gaia keep watch over the world, and assign the Planeteers to where they are needed. Captain Planet and the Planeteers is an action sidescroller game divided into two sections: Outside levels usually put the Planeteers in some kind of vehicle which can move in any of eight directions on the screen. The planeteers can use any of their elemental powers. Touching an enemy or projectile results in instant death. Inside levels summon Captain Planet himself, who can punch or turn himself into a swirling version of any of the five elements. Captain Planet can also move/fly in any of eight directions and also can only take one hit before dying.
