What do you guys think about this game? I haven't beaten it yet, but it's quite good.

This is a bit old, but it's a good breakdown of how it captured the nostalgia just right.

Played it for about 2 hours and was extremely impressed.

Haven't touched it ever since.

That's my experience as well. Not sure why.

No shit, literally my experience too. I think for me was because I bought it on PC and it's totally a console title. Then again, I have it for WiiU and, uh, haven't opened it.

It is a very good game.

have it, beat it, beat the extra quests, soundtrack is golden, 10/10. deliberately stayed away from it for years due to the hype and goofy premise though

Bought it during the summer sale on Steam last year, and beat the main quest within a week. Haven't gone back for the expansion content or to farm any achievements... but I enjoyed it. Very solid game, awesome tunes, addictive gameplay mechanics.

Younger stepson got about halfway through before it got too difficult for him (the kids seem to have trouble with 2D platformers in general, but they can destroy everyone at Call of Battlefield Infinite Black Ops 27), but enjoyed it until then.

simultaneously the best example of how "modern retro" games can thrive and how kickstarter can truly lead to brilliant games being made and not just garbage.

Bought this on GOG and liked it but yeah it feels weird playing on PC. I might rebuy it for Switch or 3DS because it'll be more likely I actually finish it.
