Played on a 13" JVC professional CRT via crtemudriver on my PC.

Cute, short throwback collect-a-thon platformer of the Banjo variety. Feels super authentic to the area in look, sound, and gameplay. Plays really well, which a lot of these throwback 3D platformers can struggle with. Cute little aesthetic and humor. It can be easy for throwback games to get lost in references to and recreations of "the classics", but Corn Kidz forges pretty much its own identity for tone, humor, setting. Never once felt like it was just presenting reskinned ideas from my childhood. Instead, it's its own thing inspired by, but not beholden to, the past.

The best 3D platformer Stephen King adaptation you'll ever play. Easy recommend for any fans of its inspirations. Will keep you fully entertained for about 4~ hours.
