This game looks really cheaply made. Not liking the visuals at all. Was a big fan of Toejam and Earl as a kid, its a cool idea but its just visually jarring. 2D sprites from the early 90s shouldnt look better than 2019 art. I hate that games dont wanna use pixel art anymore. High quality 2019 level pixel art would be some shyt.

This has more style and life than what they just released.

Is the game any good?

All the post before the game released were predictable nostalgia laced BS

Eh, not really a good excuse.



This one came out good and is pretty strong visually. These devs are also helping to complete Bloodstained, and Bloodstained NES style game is already a classic.

I dont wanna hate, Im sure people like the artstyle, but its definitely not for me.
