MMG DAY 8 - Kirby: Squeak Squad
Decided to revisit one of the classics I used to play all the time when I was a kid. This game is 15.5 years old btw.
I'd say this is a very serviceable Kirby game, which isn't much of a good thing considering the base quality of every kirby game. Bubble mixing is a neat idea to force the touch screen to exist, but is lacking in execution. Same thing with scrolls: you could've had scrolls unlock superstar-tier movesets, but they just unlock one move which is either lackluster or just the ability to angle your breath up or down. It's also kinda annoying how collecting treasure chests shares the same inventory space as all your mixing bubbles, even if it does make sense.
Still, this game gets bonus points for having two of my all time favourite copy abilities (Magic and Ghost), and gets a bump from succumbing to my nostalgia. You should probably play Superstar or Triple Deluxe before this.
