I´ve been a fan of the AVGN for many years, so I've wanted to beat this remastered collection (plus extra chapter) for the longest time. I finally got it during the 2026 Summer Sale, and I'm so glad I did! What a fun experience this has been: Tight controls, cool mechanics and upgrades, and level design that can surely be challenging at times, but the generous amount of checkpoints makes it so fun! I wish other games were as generous with the checkpoints as this one. I'm also very glad about the Auto-Fire option, and the Normal difficulty mode, which wasn't in the original games. And of course, since it's an AVGN game, expect a lot of scat, profanity and F-Bombs (in more ways than you think), and many crazy characters and references from the AVGN universe. Don't get this game if you get easily offended. I feel about this game the same way James feels about Contra: "This game kicks so much ass, there is no more ass left to kick." So, if you like jump-n-shoot platformers, definitely get this collection, even at full price! And since I completed this collection 100%, and was left wanting more, I will also be checking out the AVGN 8-Bit game, probably on the next Summer Sale: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3445490

A challenging retro style platformer that's fun, has a catchy soundtrack, and features quite a few old school gaming references. You also use a NES Zapper as your weapon, which is awesome. 😎 I used to watch AVGN back in the day, so it's kinda cool to be able to play as the foul-mouthed nerd. I did have a couple of bugs though, one where the title screen didn't show up but the music kept playing, and the other was when the outro froze after finishing the first game. But nothing a restart wouldn't fix. Overall, 10/10 would nerd rage again! 😁

I do not play old-school platformers. I've never liked them, but this game is ADDICTING. It's so much fun to play. It challenges you in all the right ways yet it'll never feel downright impossible or defeating. You'll yell at times, you'll flinch, you'll triumphantly cheer. It's a short game with lots of replay value as you'll want to up the difficultly and play it over again, collecting items and power-ups along the way. The soundtrack is a banger too, especially the nightmare level with it's nod to the Halloween theme song. Can't recommend this game enough.

Awesome improved versions of two already awesome games! I played the original AVGN game when it was first released, made with Clickteam Fusion, as a long time fan of the YouTube series I loved every second of it, I understood every reference and it was a difficult but very fun game! I highly recommend this pack including 1 + 2 to anyone who likes retro platformers and shooters, the soundtrack, pixel art and level designs are great, infuriatingly difficult at times, but that excellent soundtrack keeps me in good spirits through the whole thing. If you have not watched the AVGN YouTube series I recommend to go check it out also, you'll get a good chuckle at some of the references scattered about the games! Overall a pack of two awesome games, if you like challenging games that as NES hard? give this a whirl!
