Viewtiful Joe has been developed by Capcom Production Studio 4 and was launched in 2004. This game offers you a side-scrolling platform gaming experience. There are many episodes where you would be able to see some plot of the story in between. A brief idea about the game's story is that there is an Old captain blue movie being played on the big screen and is being watched by Joe and his girlfriend, Silvia. Silvia is kidnapped by a monster coming out of the screen. Later, Joe sets on a journey to rescue Silvia. To save Silvia, Joe enters movieland where he meets with Captain Blue and is coached by him.
The gameplay of the game is based on an entirely 2D platform where the gameplay character Joe can move in different directions, like up, left, and right. The player can jump or double jump when required to prevent obstacles. When it comes to combat, you can defeat many numbers of enemies even if they attack you at once. Joe can dodge, kick, and punch whether you want to harm the enemy or prevent the enemy attacks. Your opponents are left temporarily paralyzed after you can avoid their attack. This provides you some time in which you can attack your enemies.
