Happy Pride Month πŸ«ΆπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

EDIT: i don't really love this game as i haven't thought about it once after beating it, but i'm going to leave my old review up for preservation i guess.

Didn't expect this to be a last-minute addition to my sleeper hits of the year but it was so much fun that I couldn't leave it out!

It's as if the formula of Sonic Mania was applied to the Turtles' beat-em-ups from the 80s/90s. I DID NOT LIKE the original arcade game, it felt very restrictive and unfair. This may have been extremely easy (we got our first game over on the final boss) but it's varied, has a ton of fun characters, is absolutely packed full of charm and appeal, and is overall a perfect Game Pass multiplayer time - just hop in and out with your friends! I was only able to play this with my brother, but I can imagine a 6-player playthrough would be incredible.

I think it's so funny how before the Master Sword, the developers made sure to ease the player into 3D gaming as much as possible. Constant hints, hand-holding as much as possible...

And then halfway through they said MAN, FUCK THEM KIDS BRO and little 8 year old Timmy on the N64 has to suffer through actual nightmare fuel with NO direction.

I love it.

decently fun splitscreen but how the HELL was this the game that my roommate bought an Xbox Series S specifically for? Like I swear there's a million other shooters that are identical to this

I ADORE the pixel art and music! Playing as Kim gave me gender euphoria :3. But unfortunately the levels fall off in quality and creativity extremely fast after the first one. I know it's because of the development history and the fact a second development team had to come in and rush the game in a few months, but still.

If Blather Round was replaced with an ACTUALLY FUN GAME this would be an absolutely essential multiplayer game for anyone to own but alas

Bracketeering sucks but otherwise some really fun selections

OBVIOUSLY the best idea for a parappa follow-up would be to recreate the experience of taking LSD, right?

Roomerang and Quixort literally carry the entire pack. Too bad the other 3 games are the definition of "mid" πŸ˜”
