It felt similar, but also like an entirely different game, with a really cool final boss. If you enjoyed the NES game, this one is definitely worth playing. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #RetroGaming #Nintendo #GameBoy #KidIcarus #Platformer #PlatformingGame
Tonight I played through Kid Icarus Of Myths And Monsters for Game Boy. It was essentially the same story as the NES game, but with different bosses and dungeon layouts. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #RetroGaming #Nintendo #GameBoy #KidIcarus #Platformer #PlatformingGame
I even did a second loop to get the best ending where Pit gets a little smooch from the goddess #Palutena. Give this one a try if you like tough #platformers, but don't be afraid to use a map for the fortress stages, they get long and mazey. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #NES #KidIcarus
Tonight I finished up Kid Icarus for NES. I've always wanted to play this one since I was a kid, and overall it was a lot of fun. It definitely had a learning curve, but got easier as you leveled up. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #RetroGaming #NES #Platformer #PlatformingGame #KidIcarus
It has five stages, all of which were vibrant and colorful, and the OST was a variety of jazzy cd quality music that helped add character to each stage. I recommend giving this one a try, it's a fun quick playthrough. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #Retro #SMB #SuperMarioWorld #RomHack
I just played through an interesting #RomHack of #SuperMarioWorld that re-imagines what Super Mario Bros would be like on a CD-based console. Made by @famicomcd.org, this game blended elements of the early #SMB games, and #Yoshi even made an appearance! | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming
It was violent and bloody, and the bullet time mechanic was really fun to play with. A couple stages got pretty difficult, but overall this was a fun and unique experience. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #RetroGaming #MaxPayne #RockstarGames #MobiusEntertainment #GBA #GameBoyAdvance
On tonight's stream I finished up Max Payne for Game Boy Advance. This was an overhead isometric view game that really felt special compared to the original game. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #RetroGaming #MaxPayne #RockstarGames #MobiusEntertainment #GBA #GameBoyAdvance
Tim Curry always puts on a great performance, and this was no different. It was really fun seeing him in FMV format.

In celebration of FMVuary* I recently played Frankenstein Through the Eyes of the Monster for #ClassicWindows. This was a #PointAndClick horror #AdventureGame starring Tim Curry as Dr Frankenstein. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Retro #Twitch #FMVGame #FMV #FMVuary #Frankenstein #HorrorGame #TimCurry

There were even a couple shmup style stages, adding variety to the whole experience. It was a lot of fun, and had an old school arcade charm to it. I'd say definitely give this one a try. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #IndieGame #IndieGaming #SEEP #ActionAdventureGame #Steam #PC
I recently played through a really neat retro style indie game on Steam called Roar of the Revenge. This was an action adventure game made by SEEP that was marketed as #Rastan meets #Faxanadu. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #IndieGame #IndieGaming #SEEP #ActionAdventureGame #Steam #PC
I recently played through Super #BackToTheFuture Part II for #SuperFamicom. A Japan exclusive in which you play as #MartyMcFly riding a #hoverboard, backflipping his way through the future and into the past. This one was a lot of fun! | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #Retro #BTTF
The baseball park stage in particular totally gave me Streets of Rage vibes. That's pretty interesting that Combatribes came out first.
With mechanics like double tap to run it felt a bit dated even for its time, but it was still a pretty decent quick play through. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #Retro #SNES #BeatEmUp #SuperNintendo
I recently played through a retro game called The Combatribes for Super Nintendo. It wasn't a very advanced feeling beat em up, but not too bad overall. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #RetroGaming #Retro #SNES #BeatEmUp #SuperNintendo
It's a pretty wild combination, but overall pretty fun. I'd just recommend using a guide to know what to look for in the Breakout stages. Other than that, give this one a try! | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #HudsonSoft #Famicom #AdventureIsland #BugHoney #Breakout #Platformer
I mentioned Hudson's Bug Honey on Adventure Island recently, and I finally finished it this past weekend. It's part Adventure Island platformer, and part Breakout-style brick breaking game. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Retro #HudsonSoft #Famicom #AdventureIsland #BugHoney #Breakout #Platformer
Tonight in celebration of #Jankuary I played two #Famicom games. One based on #MiloAndOtis, a cute but #janky #platformer, the other a spin off of the #AdventureIsland series that's part platformer part #breakout-style game. Pretty interesting but really tough #RetroGames. | twitch.tv/grescokit
My pleasure! All the different enemy mechanics made it a lot of fun to play. Thanks for the game!
Do you enjoy the jankier side of #RetroGaming? This Saturday the 17th at 9pm EST/6pm PST I'm playing Koneko Monogatari Adventures of #Chatran, a #Famicom game based on children's film Adventures of #MiloAndOtis. For more information, check out jankuary.com | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #Jankuary
Tonight I finished up an indie game called #Grapplania. It was a really interesting precision platforming game, but also had a swinging mechanic that made it feel a bit like Castlevania meets Bionic Commando. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #IndieGame #PCGame #Steam #Retro #ModernRetro
The hand drawn art style is great, and the music keeps things moving. I definitely recommend these games, they're a lot of fun. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #IndieGame #PCGame #SteamGame #Steam #RetroStyleGame #ModernRetroGame #VideoGaming #GunmanClive #HörbergProductions
Tonight I played through an indie game called Gunman Clive 2. I played the original one back in 2023, and the sequel was just as wacky and wild. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #IndieGame #PCGame #SteamGame #Steam #RetroStyleGame #ModernRetroGame #VideoGaming #GunmanClive #HörbergProductions
I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Losing a loved one is never easy. Captain was such a good boy and loved by many. 😞❤️🫂
It incorporated some pretty interesting mechanics that changed depending on which enemy you were holding. The art style is great, and the music was nice, so it's worth a try if you're into retro style platforming games. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #Twitch #ModernRetro #Retro #IndieGame #Steam #PC
