Gameplay
'Stache Smash is a primitive 2D side-scrolling strategy platformer full of twists, turns, and egg puns. In it, the player takes control of Dr. Eggman, who must maneuver through numerous hazards, including pools filled with sharks. Eggman may avoid these obstacles by running, jumping, or swinging on vines. In order to "beat" the game, the player needs to find and collect seven specific objects.[1]
History
TV series
Season two
'Stache Smash was developed by Dr. Eggman in an effort to improve his public image. When Eggman tried to sell the game however, he discovered that it was outclassed by more modern video games. This prompted Eggman to abandon 'Stache Smash and begin on Super 'Stache Smash.[1]
Trivia
