Global Gladiators lets you control two characters through four different worlds, while guided by McDonald's mascot Ronald McDonald.

Global Gladiators is a side scrolling platformer/shooter where you guide two characters called "Mick" and "Mack" through four different worlds. These worlds include Slime World, Mystical Forest, Toxi-Town and Arctic World. During each world, the player has to blast enemies with guns called GooShooters, that look similar to Super Soakers, except they shoot slime type projectiles. Each of these worlds consist of several sub-stages. The aim of each level is to collect a certain number of McDonald's Global Arches to advance to the next sub-stage. Also, during the game, the characters are guided by McDonalds mascot "Ronald McDonald"s its all recycled correctly.

Plot

You play Mick or Mack over 12 levels in 4 worlds (Slime World, Mystical Forest, Toxi-Town, and Arctic World). Your mission is to clean up these levels of their enemies to hopefully progress to the single boss fight in the game... Fighting a giant glacier with a face.

Development

The game was originally developed for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, but was later ported to the Sega Master System, Sega Game Gear and Commodore Amiga. The game was programmed by legendary developer David Perry, who would later go on to develop such games as Alladin, Earthworm Jim and Coolspot, all of which would use the same engine as Global Gladiators. After the release of these games, David Perry's programming team would then go on to become Shiny Entertainment.

Advertisements and Messages

The character Mack also has a name that sounds exactly the same as McDonalds famous "Big Mac" burger. Also, the game has a strong environmentalist message, which can be seen with the name of the world "Toxi-Town" and also the fact that the games protagonists are "cleaning up" the trash from the games worlds.caption
