There is a DOS game I remember from my childhood (I was born in 86),
but I can't remember the name for the life of me. I'm pretty sure it
would have been off an old B:\ disk. It is in color, but the graphics
are blocky. I think there is some kind of boarder with your inventory
of stuff.

You are an astronaut. It is a side-scrolling adventure game. I think
it is blue with purple glass covering the face. I remember a lot of
jumping. There is a level directly on the moon with a very, very wide
jump. I think you can shoot fireballs like Mario does.

I have no idea what the name is. I think it had "C" or "S" in the
name. Maybe "Space."

I'm sure it's available somewhere, but I can't remember the name.

Thank you.

More and more details are coming back to me. If you have anything to
spur my memory, it's worth a shot.

I have browse some of the old DOS sites, but without luck.
