Marc Golding is on fire. He'll not quite take the front page, but he'll drown those who vie to stop him out via pure spite!

I made a joke not long ago that you can be fed retro platformers for days and you'll be content quietly working through, but I think what you do better than any of is is pull out examples not immediately obvious. Here, the Shinobi one makes perfect sense, but I'm not sure I'd have been able to think it up. Good review for a goofy little game none of us knew existed.


For us. For them. For you.

Thanks, Gary. I would have had the front page were it not for that fucking Joe. Also, I was going to post this review last night and have all four up but I fell asleep. So I guess it's partly my fault too. Anyway, I want to spit out another two, perhaps today, perhaps not, so that my backlog is done. Completely.

C-C-Combo breaker!

But seriously, this is a great review. I'll probably sit this one out, unfortunately. I'm not opposed to sex appeal, but I tend to need more from my retro-inspired content.

Also:
"Where do inspirations leave off and rip-offs take over?"

I've wondered this since playing The Wonderful End of the World, because it's an obvious take on Katamari Damacy (it even subtly references the game in its Steam summary). At what point is it appropriate to scream "knock off"?


The only thing my milkshake brings to the yard is a subpoena.

Thanks, Joe, despite the combo breaker. ^_^
