Really great retro platformer!
Since I know almost every video the AVGN ever made, I was aware that this game exists, James even made a video about his fan games including this one of course. The version that's now here on GoG has been changed a bit. They dropped the lives-system so you can now actually beat it, no matter how many times you die and believe me, you WILL die a lot. But the game manages to be FUN and not just frustrating. The checkpoints (NinToasters^^) are placed very fairly which means you will make progress, the levels are not too long and the bosses are not that difficult to beat. What's even more important is, is that the controls are very responsive and can be configured in the menus. The visuals are really cool and there's a ton of references to old popular games and AVGN episodes in each level! All in all, I agree with MadPilgrim, this game is a fun experience, no matter if you're a fan of the AVGN or not. I'm sooo happy that this games finally came to GoG, I wasn't even expecting it to ever be here, so it was an instant purchase!
