A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
This week, me and Gillman try some Stranger of Paradise and wonder how/why this game was made. Who asked for this? So strange.
An ode to OutRun, Slipstream is an 80s indie driving game about drifting at right angles to make right turns, outfitted with a wondrous pixelated backdrop. It isn’t exactly original and tracks are pretty bland (you’re either just cruising straightaways or drifting hard) but it is still a cool experience. There are a handful of […]
Beast Shooter: Mezase Beast King is a Japanese exclusive Konami GBA title that features a Single-Pak link multi-boot mode. Unfortunately, without an English patch, it is difficult to determine exact gameplay details but I did manage to find two Single-Pak link modes as I stumbled my way through the main menu. Gameplay is basically like […]
Big Bang Pro Wrestling is the latest Neogeo Pocket Color game to be re-released digitally on the Switch eShop. To this point, I have covered every NGPC re-release, including the Steam version of the of Vol.1 compilation, and have to say that this wrestling title is my least favorite of the current titles available. At […]
Hardcore Pool is a decent pool game that supports up to 4 players from the use of a single game pak. Control is easy and intuitive, there are several tables available, and each player must select a stereotypical avatar character before each match. Kowalski! Emm-effing legend! This is Single-Pak link!
A simple action platformer, Horned Knight is a low cost digital downloadable title (a limited run physical version is available via Red Art Games) about jumping, avoiding hazards, dashing, killing monsters, and wall jumping to reach the goal. It isn’t anything you have not played before but it is a casual, enjoyable experience especially for […]
Like Pac-Man and Xevious (the GBA Classic NES Series ports), Donkey Kong features a Single-Pak link multiboot mode for 2 players but it is pretty much pointless. Instead, players can just pass-the-console if you wanted to compete for a high score. Also, high scores are not saved during the linked play. This is Single-Pak link!
Proving Chris Columbus wrong, Flat Kingdom demonstrates that the world is flat. It is admirable when game purposely markets itself as a game without 3D but this isn’t a Paper Mario clone as you might assume from a screenshot. Instead, this is a rock-paper-scissor action platformer with a hint of environmental puzzle solving. The standout […]
A simple tunnel shooter action game, Thunder Kid: Hunt For The Robot Emperor plays like an arcade game from the mid-80s but with early PSOne style visuals. Controlling the Thunder Kid, it is your job to navigate through each stage which is basically a tunnel, killing simple robots along the way, and eventually facing brutal […]
A comical single-screened boss gauntlet horizontal shooter, Fingun provides stupid fun for the thirty minutes that it lasts. With most of the visuals made in MS Paint, the game never takes itself too seriously and unlocks a few mature images upon completion, a feature in most Gamuzumi games. Controlling a hand that shoots circle bullets […]
