Fun retro platformer with frogge
fun and challenging
Hard mode relies too much on insta death but aside from that the game is just pretty short and average. Don't get the hype with this one.
delightful game all around short and breezy with great writing
this game's unique idea is doing a bunch of not-at-all unique ideas really really well
Even though I didn't think this was as good as Cave Story, I still really am glad that this exists and that I got to play it. At the end of the day it's just cute and enjoyable. Thanks Pixel.
Cracking wee game which was nice to get into after finishing Tears of the Kingdom. Great platforming run and gun fun, with some lovely 8 bit visuals and music. Just what I needed.
It is a joy to rediscover Pixel’s 8-bit arsenal in a new context, along with their unique sense of humor in a new strange and surreal world. Kero Blaster rules.
Honestly - a perfect game.

Cool game
Everyone was wondering "How is pixel going to follow up cave story?????"
The answer: perfectly
The answer: perfectly
Funny overworked frog that blasts everything and saves the world with a jacket. Twice. Or even thrice if you count the omake mode.
The game is more akin to a run-and-gun than a platformer game, despite my initial preconceptions. Do be warned that stages have plenty of harmful environments.
If you're going for all achievements keep Kuro Blaster at lvl 2 unless you really care about a secret. You'll thank me later

I just don’t understand the appeal of regressing so far into an era of technology that’s objectively worse than what is available today without updating even a single thing to be consistent with today’s standards.

Not bad but didn't hold my interest very long
the strongest message i could finish 2022 with is: working sucks!
Cute frog. Much less impressive than Cave Story, but a fun lil thing.
A more traditional platformer made by the same guy who made Cave Story. It has so much heart and should be played by anyone who loves retro games. A true hidden gem.
Charming, challenging but not overly so, and an all-around delightful game! I bought a SNES controller with USB capabilities just to play this game, which really was the cherry on top!
É uma pena que este jogo não tenha port para consoles, senão seria mais visualizado. (DESATULIZADO DE OUTRA LISTA...)
Pixel proving once again that you can do something very good with simple concepts. It doesn't quite reach the masterpiece that is Cave Story. But it is still something of very high quality, I emphasize being something very simple but made with a lot of love and care.
Thank you based Pixel
From the creator of cave story comes a smaller yet no less fun adventure. Do I find this game as influential or deep as cave story? Not at all.
But is it a fun time? Absolutely, and it has a lot of replay value with the weapon upgrade system and multiple playthroughs.
The Story is simple but fun, and the music is on par with Cave Story in my personal opinion. It is hard to believe both these games were made by a single incredibly passionate man.
The game also includes a hard mode with its own story and a pretty hardcore finale on par with Running Hell from Cave Story if you were to ask me.
If you enjoy platforming action games, especially run and gun type games, this is a pretty great one.

absolutely incredible how we're nearly 20 years out from cave story and nobody has come even close to matching pixel in the arena of making a retro platformer that feels this good to play. just an absolute joy, trading cave story's more open world for some phenomenal linear level design. the music too, god. nobody makes that shit like pixel does. makes me mad how good he is at this seemingly effortlessly
the special thanks to tyrone rodriguez in the credits really got me too lol

simple, short, sweet fun. it's not as "complex" as cave story and it doesn't really need to be, just enjoy the tunes and shoot the baddies!
Nothing quite like Pixel's music. Instantly recognizable, pulls you right in. Best enjoyed when thinking of Cave Story and the time you downloaded it because some anonymous figure put it up as a newly discovered instant classic. It was free, you gave it a shot, core memory formed.
Also, genuinely shocked Cat never became a pfp staple.

This is a great little run & gun that does little to innovate but nails the execution. That's all that really matters anyway. Good study material for level designers. It looks nice and the music & sound design is great.
There is some crust in staying so true to its roots. The control scheme is pretty awkward. Switching weapons is a pain, and sometimes turning around while shooting doesn't work the way you'd expect. You also have to retread the entire level on a game-over, which can get a little annoying in the later levels (which are relatively long) but the game is only about 2-3 hours anyway so this is hardly an issue.
Bottom line is that you should play Kero Blaster if you've ever enjoyed a game where you shoot a gun and "side scroll".

A really fun and charming platformer. I find the art appealing despite the low resolution and the music is really good too. I think the difficulty is average but there are a couple of harder bonus modes after beating the main story. The premise itself is rather amusing to me.
The game is also lightweight and runs on pretty much anything so it's an easy recommendation.

This is cute but this game is wayyyyy too hard for me.
I think I finished this. It was fun but so unremarkable that I can't remember.
