Platformer

Not all platformers are created easy. Do you dare take on a hard 1-bit platformer? If so, then you may be interested in this announcement. If not, then you’ve been warned. Ratalaika Games’ upcoming platformer, 0000, is not for the faint of heart. What makes 0000 so scary…I mean…hard? Ratalaika Games announced a new 1-bit platformer called 0000. The game will be coming to the 3DS and Steam Greenlight! Here are more details about the game directly from the developer:…

Steamworld Dig 2 will be heading to the Nintendo Switch this summer. We’ll be hearing a lot about the game via the wonderful folks at Image & Form. For instance, today they released a new video answering some questions about Dig 2. You can check that video out below. Steamworld Dig 2 looks fantastic. I don’t have a Switch yet but when I do get one, I will likely grab the game for that (or pick it up on 3DS…

Recently, I heard that Sony would be discontinuing the Playstation 3 in Japan. Its amazing that it took them this long, what with the Playstation 4 doing so well. I use to own the system, but traded mine in awhile back. I still miss the Playstation 3 to this day. There were a lot of wonderful games on the system. I thought that now would be a great time to look back at my Playstation 3 memories and the games…

When I was a kid, I was watched all of the Disney Afternoon cartoons: Ducktales, Chip N’Dale, Talespin, Darkwing Duck, and more. I never did play the NES games that were released based on them. Years later, I got to play the Ducktales Remastered game on Wii U and loved it. And now a collection of the NES games has been revealed and it looks very cool. Please take a look at the following trailer and then come back for…

Nintendo never needs to build another 2D Mario game. With the release of Super Mario Maker for the 3DS and the Wii U, Nintendo has given players the tools to build Mario levels. Why would Nintendo ever need to build another 2D Mario? In today’s More Thoughts, I’ll talk about Super Mario Maker, the future of 2D Mario, if we’ll ever see another Super Mario Maker, and I’ll share with you codes for a couple of my Mario levels! I…

Chicken Wiggle is a platformer coming to the 3DS eshop. Not only will it have levels of its own, but it will also feature a level editor. Please take a look at the video below and then come back for my thoughts on the editor. The Chicken Wiggle level editor looks fantastic! At first, I thought it just looked neat, but as Jools Watsham showed more of the editor’s features, my jaw stayed open. The editor will allow you to…

Recently, we found out that Rime would be coming to the Nintendo Switch (and other systems). Since then, the developer has been sharing more footage of the game on IGN. We have the latest video about the game below.   Wow! Rime really does look amazing. It is reminding me of Ico more and more. I wasn’t a huge fan of Ico, but I did like the graphics. Though, Rime may look even better than Ico. I’m definitely more interested…

In February 2017, Yoshi’s Woolly World will be coming to the 3DS as Poochy and Yoshi’s Woolly World. A Poochy amiibo will be released at the same time! Nintendo UK put a video on youtube today that showed off some new features of the game. Poochy and Yoshi’s Woolly World will be coming out on February 3rd, 2017. The game is not just a port of the Wii U Yoshi’s Woolly World game though. There will be some new features…

I’m a huge fan of Mario. I love the games, especially the 2D ones, but I’m not sure why Nintendo is continuing the franchise. Yes, I know Mario is their mascot and they are not just going to suddenly give up on him, however I’m not sure what else can done with him at the moment. Super Mario Maker, in my opinion, is the ultimate Mario game. Its a Mario game that lets you create your own levels!! How do…
