Kero Kero Cowboy

I kid you not I wrote a review for this game that would take longer to read than it would for you to *complete this game. I will attempt to summarize without spoiling anything. There are five worlds in this game. I initially wrote my review after finishing the first three worlds thinking there was no way a game could have a drop in quality substantial enough for me to change how I felt at the time. I was wrong. Each level is segmented by a single checkpoint. But don't think of it like a checkpoint in most platformers where the purpose is to reward you by not having to replay the entire level again. No. The game changes drastically between these checkpoints. So much that I'm strongly convinced two separate people made each half of each level without any correspondence. As well as I firmly believe that one of these developers is amazing, while the other one is trying to get people to literally lose their minds. This doesn't kick in fully until World 4. There is one half of one level in World 3 that should have been foreshadowing, but it was the outlier among many other great cohesive levels. I am led to believe they brought this individual on to help finish the game and they only worked on World 4 and World 5, with one exception being they gave him half of one level in World 3 as a test trial. Somehow they either thought he did a great job (impossible) or they loved his plan to trick people into playing a game that will slowly make them lose their minds. Which I agree, sounds absolutely preposterous. That can't be it. My final theory is that the person behind this absolute madness is the same person behind the game's soundtrack. Let me tell you one thing. My review, and any review on here, should START with the music in this game and go from there. If it wasn't for the psychosis and paranoia, I would have done so. When I tell you that the music in this game slaps, I don't mean it sounds goodgreatamazing, no. I mean it SLAPS. It's beautiful. The soundtrack to this game has no business being this utterly incredible. There are "only" a handful of tracks and I'm being ungrateful for saying so. I was blessed with one song and somehow they kept coming. The music in this game changed my life. This game has no right to sound this good, just like half of almost every level in the last two worlds has NO RIGHT to be that chaotic and horribly designed. I know that these events are somehow related, but figuring out how might lead me down a road I'm not prepared for. Recommend.

Pretty fun game there pardner!

Youre a frog with a cool cowboy hat and a GUN More I dont need to say

Good frog game, very fun (but still challenging!)

This is an incredibly charming game that mixes mario and kirby together. From the color and cuteness of its characters to the way you interact with the menus, this game is filled with many cute details. Though its not without its flaws, the frame rate seems to drop when more than a few enemies are on screen or in the ice water level, when you get hit you unequip the gun, the crickets have a glitch where they ignore invincibility frames. and 5-2... if this game was popular enough to have difficulty level rankings, this level would always be near the top. too many ghosts combined with the finikey water jump phisics. developers please remove some of the ghosts, if they don't then the best advice i can give you is to lure them away before running away so they despawn off screen. other than that this game is an absolute treat to play would reccomend it to everyone.

Very well-made GB-style platformer with chiptune music and decent enough movement.

I backed this as a kickstarter as I enjoy indie gameboy games and received the Steam edition of the game as part of my backing. This is a very fun platforming/action game that makes me think of things like Kirby with the eating and spitting of enemies, but then there are platforming sections that remind me of things like light kaizo Mario, especially with the boot! This is well worth the time and money if you enjoy classic Gameboy/Gameboy Color style games and you know that going into it. I'd highly recommend it for gamers looking for that type of gameplay. If you're looking for the fanciest graphics, and don't care as much about gameplay, you'll likely want to look elsewhere. Edit: Updating after completing the story and this was a great play. It had a clear ramp in difficulty but was fun throughout. I'll be going back to collect the three coins in each of the earlier worlds as I only did for "world" 5 and got the bonus for that section.
