Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade

Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade is a point-and-click adventure platformer where you play as Linus, an alien from the planet Linoleum, on a mission to prove Earth's existence to his skeptical Linomen. Gameplay mixes point-and-click exploration and command-based interactions with short arcade-style platforming sections where you collect Cosmic candy, avoid enemies, and reach destinations. Mini-games include bumper car racing and a two-player Pie Slap battle mode. Story follows Linus acquiring a camera and vehicle while quashing robot revolts and solving puzzles. Characters include Linus and quirky aliens. What makes it stand out is its unique hybrid genre blending adventure puzzles with platforming and the original unlicensed NES release.
