No, this is a different game. Follow the link - this is Dumbo's Adventure, not Dumbo and Cool.

It's got Dumbo in it, but it's very different from Dumbo and Cool. And, it's freeware.

That was meant to be tongue in cheek. I wouldn't say recommend as much as 'suggest'...

Might want to have a look on http://www.gamehippo.com I ain't 100% sure they've got any platformers but it's worth a look.

Well I'm not sure if the Vince the Vet 2 DEMO is still up. Or if you'd call it a platformer, but this is the link:
http://www.freewebs.com/fleaware/vince2.rar
note: don't play this game if you're easily offended by mindless slaughter of puppies.

Well if everyone is spamming their own games I may as well spam Katey's Quest but is it a platformer if you can't really jump much? Hmm...

Perhaps you're after something more like Mario? But with castlevania elements thrown in?
No? How about Megaman? everyone loves Megaman, right? D:
No... more the adventuring type? Well Cave Story has you covered! What has got to be one of the greatest freeware games of all time, great plot, great action and lots of secrets! (remember to get the translation thing)
Don't like plot? Well... how about N Ninja a puzzley, action packed, fast-paced ninja game! It can't get better than that.
Unless you like to play as cute little demons named Akuji I guess. Another cool adventure title... it's the top one on the list, just remember the english patch.

And if none of those float your boat, just browse the Platformer section of gamehippo, or indeed the platformer section of caiman.us (both good places for us freeware developers to submit games we make )
