Other (upcoming) titles published by the new iteration of Acclaim:

Katanaut
HYPERYuki: Snowboard Syndicate
Basketball Classics
Tossdown
Ground Zero Hero
Pixel Washer
GRIDbeat!
Talaka
Seeing that Acclaim logo does provide a specific tingle to some nostalgia part of the brain.
I'm sure the game is nice & challenging as well...most certainly wacky enough.
It definitely looks like an Acclaim game. I'm gonna pass. I had enough rage quitting for one night yesterday. They even focus on how tough it is in the trailer. If you like really tough games, this is for you.

Must be a good ol' game because when I leaned English about 40 years ago, prisoning was a very very antiquated archaic term. I prefer imprisonment. I am interested though because it's the same folks who made the Alwa games. I can look past the Swedglish language I guess.

Acclaim doesn't raise a great deal of hope in me, but this is Zombie Brand acclaim, so I have to put that aside.

Acclaim were the Data East of the West.
Wild! I saw Acclaim and didn't really expect much out of this title, but then I saw who developed it!

I just finally beat Alwa's Awakening yesterday and I had a thought to go and look through what other games the developers made, and noticed they had a gap of a few years since their last title. I am happy to see they are still churning out titles!
Cool, I am currently wearing out my controller with LOVE 3. Love these kind of games. Instabuy.

I thought it was one of the weird "cool" made-up words akin to some ordinary one. Like, for example, "the gamering", "the shoppening"... it turns out something that belongs to high end Regency vocabulary, maybe.

I have a soft spot for platformers, and this game looks amazing! Seeing the "Acclaim" logo at the beginning is very cool too. Lots of nostalgia. Wishlisted!
Seeing the visuals, I thought this would be right up my alley, but there were way too many toilets in the trailer for my taste. :-/ Hopefully, just one customer not being into skibidi humor won't starve the dev to death. :)

The toilets don't bother me.
But the gameplay is way too hectic for this old guy. ^^
