Released in the summer of 1994, the first game was ''mindblowing'' at the time.

The game's sequel, released in 1998, took everything the original did and improved upon it substantially.

Developed by [[Creator/EpicGames Epic Megagames]], these games starred the titular rabbit hero with quick feet and a big gun, crossing galaxies to butt heads with the evil Devan Shell and to free the captured princess of his home planet. Once considered PC gamers' response to the likes of ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'', the Jazz games sold on fast-paced RunAndGun action (with bonus levels surprisingly similar to Sonic's) and the titular MascotWithAttitude. The first two games in the series received many expansion sets, including Christmas-themed ones, [[{{Vaporware}} and the franchise ground to a halt when the third game failed to ship]]. Surprisingly the games still maintain an active online community, and ''Jazz 2'' is still actively played online by the proud and the few to this day.
