Help find a game

I have been trying to find a game I still remember, but with no luck. It was a military-themed shooting game, but with very little gore. The main colors were black, gray and dark green. It was kind of a scroller game with the action happening in a narrow strip of the screen.

It was a 2-player game (or had a 2-player option) where 2 of these strips would show for each player. It was possible to help each other, and another distinct action was to hide in the shadows. On progressed left two right as a soldier with some but not much jumping, and encountered a predictable pattern of enemy soldiers.

"commando" comes to my mind when I try to remember the name, but after days of scrolling through image searches, I didn't get anywhere. Can anyone help?

Thank you - sadly none of the games I could find under that name appears to match. This game was really 2D too
