In 1993 Silly Snake re-defined the platform genre with critically acclaimed reviews and record-breaking sales across the world. A licensed TV show, plush characters and serialised comic soon followed. An unexpected global phenomenon from the City Guys Inc. studio, the developers rushed out Silly Snake 2: Silly Snake's Soccer Blast to coincide with the USA World Cup. A radical departure in terms of gameplay, this shmup bore little resemblance to the original hit platformer. Now Silly Snake traversed a variety of settings, shooting soccer balls from his mouth to vanquish a myriad of enemies. Building up power ups to eventually unlock the flaming golden ball, Silly Snake 2 culminated in a dramatic boss showdown with the all-powerful Diego Maradona. Sales of the game were mediocre, but not poor enough to discourage further sequels in later years.
