Guimo is a Brazilian platform game for DOS. It was created by a Brazilian game company formerly known as Jack in The Box Computing (now called Southlogic Studios) and published in Brazil by Cia do Software. It was launched in Brazil and in Europe, not getting much attention. In the company founder, Christian Lykawka's words, "It was a small project, that gave us more knowledge of how to make games, rather than monetary profit.".[cite this quote] Nowadays, it's not being sold anymore, but nevertheless, most of the people who own the game say it is a very good game.
[edit] Story
In the Paithon system, a pacific group of beings forming a pacific civilization lives in a universe parallel to our, the Beta-Universe.

But fortunately still exists a hero who can face Necterion and restore the peace...
...GUIMO!
The most fearless and prepared sentinel trained to fight the disorder.
But the danger that is around us continues yet, to win the evil Necterion the forces of both brother-worlds are necessary, thus...
[edit] Gameplay
At first glance, Guimo plays the same way other platform games do. Jump around and shoot the enemies. But Guimo has lots of weapons to play with, and his enemies also have a very good Artificial intelligence, ordering allies to come fight Guimo once they've seen him, and the alikes.
