Modern sidescroller with nostalgic feel
Ingredients: * Pixelly in-game aesthetics of Commodore games * 16-bit colours of Super Nintendo games * Modern sidescrolling action game design, with matching intensity * An awesome collection of characters parodying the action movie heroes and heroines from the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s Direction: Add ingredients together, give it a good BROtastic shake and we get 'Broforce', the video game that children of the '70s and '80s wish they had when they were kids. The action in 'Broforce' is so outrageous that it will get your adrenaline pumping from the get-go. It's challenging, especially a few boss fights, but not too hard to make you feel less of a Bro. Despite dying often, you'll rarely find the levels tiresome because each time you restart a level or rescue a prisoner, you'll get to play as a new Bro. This means you'll need to readjust your combat tactics to push forward. Gameplay gets more fun when you unlock a new Bro and get to try out new combat moves. Each bro is a parody of famous action heroes or heroines. Some play better than others in general, and by the end of the game, you'll definitely have a few favourite Bros to play as. But, don't count the other Bros out because each of them can surprise you and be extremely helpful in some boss fights. Although I feel that the last level drags on a bit too long for me at times, 'Broforce' gets an enthusiastic perfect score of 5 stars out of 5 from me. It has brought me so much joy not only because it's a fun game, but it's pretty much my childhood dream video game come to life! (Personal favourite Bros: Brommando, Bro Hard, Bro Dredd, Snake Broskin, Brobocop, The Boondock Bros, Brochete, Ellen Ripbro, and Bro Max.)
