It's a platformer without much of an emphasis on jumping. You control this little black ball with a star face and use its Mr. Fantastic-esque arms to grab enemies, ledges, walls, and try not to die. It's not the most memorable game I've ever played, but it actually doe sa lot of things I normally hate very very well. A hidden gem in my books. Ye olde Bradley McCue is my guest this week and we talk about our likes and dislikes of fighting balls with stars. I'm not sure what else there is to say. Fun game. And before we shoot for the star, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week someone shouts out the Nintendo 64 for changing the gaming landscape. What modern games are 'NES tough'? And where do I stand on the 2003 TMNT animated series?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One'!! This one features 3 Genesis games featuring weird mascots: Vectorman, Rocket Knight Adventures, and Dynamite Headdy.
