Hudson Hawk

Hudson Hawk is a platform game where you play as Eddie Hawkins, a reformed cat burglar known as "Hudson Hawk". After ten years in prison, you're thrust back into action to retrieve the shattered pieces of a legendary Da Vinci crystal hidden in three locations: an auction house in New York, the Vatican, and Castle Da Vinci in Italy. Navigate through levels while avoiding security guards, guard dogs, janitors, crazed nuns, and balloon-riding henchmen. Your only tools are a wicked punch and an infinite supply of baseballs to subdue enemies, distract dogs, and trigger switches. Crouch to avoid shots and security beams as you piece together the crystal.
