I have the Megaman Extreme games in complete, mint condition... because I bought them new. I played them at that time and wasn't super impressed. I keep them around because, after all, they are Mega Man games and I do have a thing for collecting stuff like that. But it really doesn't feel like there's enough room to move around on that tiny screen. Thanks for reading my review of Awesome Pea. I think the graphical overlay is what will catch most people!

Yes, I should look into adjusting that. And the stuff Joe mentioned in his RotW topic also. It was a fairly hasty review, but I'm glad it did the job and people enjoyed it. Thanks for reading!

Hasty huh? Isn't that my dept? Anyway, excellent review - it was a breezy read, and it made me get a little Goldblumie: "They didn't think if they should." How do you justify a game about a sentient pea, or a dimensionally displaced plumber, for that matter? Can't be the one who says "no", the game has to be given a chance at least.
Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so... |

Hey, I re-read this review because I just played the game. Great summary to close out your review. Incidentally, did you ever beat the game? It can be tough in spots, randomly, but then, you get unlimited chances...

Yeah, I did beat the game before I reviewed it. Didn't take me long to play through the whole thing. Most of the tough spots were closer to the beginning than the end, so I blew through the last third or so of the game without any difficulty at all.

You're right -- the difficulty curve was all over the place. The levels where you descended the screen from platform-to-platform were annoying trial and error exercises, but mostly easy. The traincar levels were super easy. The castle levels had some bite to them though. Anyway, good review.
