Note on Donkey Kong game boy, it starts with the 4 arcade levels then adds about a hundred more levels taking advantage of new moves and turning into more of a platform/puzzle kind of game.
This is really the starting point of what became Mario Vs Donkey Kong (which is another good GBA game to recommend, actually).
I haven’t played that Astrobot game (I don’t have a PS5) but I am not surprised with it being highly praised honestly.
Astrobot Rescue Mission was awesome, even forgetting about it being VR. It’s very fun and well designed, with new ideas all the way through, up there with Super Mario Galaxy to me. That team definitely knows their stuff.
Not that this is very relevant to that wreck of a DMCA takedown, but IMO, yeah, these toys are absolute shit. Their ugly “style” make most of them absolutely unrecognisable without the label on the box. And yet they exist for absolutely anything.
They’re worse LEGO minifigures, without the excuse of being tiny and part of a construction set.
It’s definitely a huge failure on the registrar part, but I wouldn’t say “mainly”, because it makes it sound like it’s normal for a company to send random blanket claims in all directions just in case something sticks.
I’m sure it’s not what you meant, but there definitely needs to be some sort of penalty for bad actors (including mass unsupervised automated claims).
Child of Light? Side-scrolling RPG, with a young Austrian princess waking up in a fantasy world. Very artsy and oniric, emotional but more on the hopeful side.
I played that long ago (I had a MM1-5 collection on a CD-ROM).
I finished the Clouds of Xeen side without much trouble, I was even surprised when I realized I had found that part’s ending (I think, anyway). But I never could do any progress on Darkside… Not sure what I was missing.
