Really great movement mechanics. Challenging but fun and a good amount of content especially since there is a ROM hack included in the files, too. Nails the NES vibe because it's actually playable on the NES. Made great use of the space available to them. Really enjoyed!

Great arcade platformer with very intuitive bosses and levels. It is just hard enough to keep you engaged and have you know where you messed up. Very easy to recommend.

I remember seeing the "How we made this game" videos on Youtube. Thought it was neat and decided to buy it back in the day. I played through it once but never actually tried examining it until now. Makes you appreciate what NES devs had to go through to make such a simple game. As a game it is really not that interesting, it is really well designed and fun. And it is visibly made with love. Four player Co-Op is fun. But more importantly is what it influenced. It did bring widespread acknowledgement that people did want "authentic new games for old consoles". In a sense consider this a trailblazer in an artistic movement. It really is trying to be an authentic NES game with its design philosophy and limitations. Don't expect something on the scale of Shovel Knight because of this. This includes the NES ROM and the Unity version of the game. As a game alone it is really not worth 10 USD. Get it on a deep sale.

This game is like the closest I will ever get to playing a game from the 90s (manely cuz I am afraid to pirate and also old game/game consoles are really expensive). This game has some of the best pixel graphics I have seen in a while it's really cool. The levels themselves are challanging but doable after enough pratice. I do wish there were more levels or even secret ones (maybe there is and I am just dumb but still). Overall I would give it a 10/10, would recommend if you are going for a nostalgic/just wanna play an old looking and feeling game.

One of the best retro style games ive played. Its also really cool that this game can be played anywhere that can run an NES emulator when you copy the rom that's in the files. I beat this game like a couple years ago when i put the game on a hacked DSi.
