Absolutely love this game. Pink Hour and Pink Heaven were also great little prequels. Kero Blaster has the gameplay feel of Cave Story but is a much simpler and more light-hearted game. The Normal Mode was already a challenge but I will certainly try to continue to get the most out of this game. Hope there's more games in this universe eventually! EDIT: Well, Zangyou mode overall was great. Basically a Kero Blaster - Chapter 2. But damn, the final boss feels pretty ridiculous! I feel like it should have been its own stage. What a marathon!

Another masterpiece from Pixel. If you come here from Cave Story you should know that this is not Cave Story. This game is a run and gun game with precise controls. It has grounded controls but it feels oddly satisfying even though I'm not used to it at first. This come from me, someone who have played platformers with a lot more airy and jumpy feelings like Mario, Hollow Knight and of course Cave Story. Even then, once you get the hang of it you'll feel masterful like you're in total control of the character physics. Then, there's the graphic. It is beautiful. It is simple yet the color choices in the background, characters and objects perfectly harmonizes with each other. Pretty much show simple graphic can look beautiful as long as you know how to combine the color to make it look nice. Also, I don't know how Pixel do it but the characters feels alive. The characters only talk a bit, a few doesn't talk and one character literally talks gibberish but all of them really feel real and like the main character's friend. It's not easy to achieve, lots of games even triple A games can have characters that feel dull just from how they talk but somehow each characters in Kero Blaster really feel alive and I love it. It makes me want to see them more, even the main character who doesn't talk at all. Lastly, this might be a bit of a spoiler but important if you're a kind of person who stopped playing after finishing a game. I will tell you, after you have finished normal mode you will have Zangyou mode. You will know it is the hard mode BUT it is also the continuation of the game. Not a connected continuation, the game modes literally feels like a standalone episode so treat it as new stage instead of post game. So continue on playing, the game haven't finished yet. To sum it up, it's a really fun game.

Absolutely top tier indie game by the Cave Story dev! Buying it is the best way to support him (you can look up the trouble with the Cave Story IP and profits). Kero Blaster is an amazingly elegant accomplishment - great music, writing, pixelart, and mechanics in under 5Mb! Or you could buy an AAA game for 5 times the price, 1000 times the disk size, and maybe half the fun >:3

this is basically the best game ever made. it's like duck game if it was just single player and didn't have my friend Mel kicking my ass all the time. also you're a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ frog which is way cooler than a duck, which are already really cool. a charming game about work-life-balance. it's not the some divine masterpiece that's going to blow your mind and that's the point. it's a lovingly and reasonably made human effort, and that's why it's so beautiful.
