Great Megaman clone with tight controls, good level design and tough but fair (mostly) bosses. Didn't care for the amount of insta-kill spikes in the last stages though.

A fun game that you will probably enjoy if you like the classic Mega Man titles (1-11). I'm not a pro gamer but I was able to clear hard mode (and there are two lesser difficulties available if it's too much for you). Overall I had a good time. Not the greatest pixel art in the world IMO but the chiptune was pretty good and the stages/bosses were neat. The only thing I ran into during my playthrough is that pausing...

It doesn't get easier than that when it comes to Mega Man clones. A love letter to the Mega Man franchise, simple and short game, has all the beloved iconic elements, multiphase bosses, weapons, abilities, secret collectibles and charm, just enough to get you hooked in to get all the achievements. Speedrun friendly and that comes from a person who doesn't enjoy speedruning. It only gets kinda annoying at the end......

Venture Kid A love letter to the classic Mega Man franchise in every way, and a pretty damn good one, Venture Kid is an accurate take on everyone's favorite Blue Bomber. Its a more or less straightforward approach to an established formula of careful platforming and creative enemy and boss attack patterns but its distilled to the elements that just made Mega Man feel so good. This one is for the diehards, and its...

Venture Kid is a decent Mega Man clone that does its job perfectly without adding anything new to the formula. It’s basically a hybrid between the very first Mega Man and Mega Man 9 since it comes with a shop system and without the charge shot ability. The gameplay is pretty much the same as the first Mega Man except that you have some secret areas that contain collectibles that are mandatory for unlocking the final...

Very cheap, very simple, very short but very fun little game! The gameplay is heavily inspired by Megaman, just like the music! It plays very smooth imo and feels fair. The bosses are a bit basic, but you can't really complain for that price! It is easier than Megaman aswell, so it isn't as hard. That is pretty much all. Short review, for a short game! You will not be disappointed!

This is the DARK SOULS of games you should only spend 1 Dollar on. On howlongtobeat.com someone wrote this game is only 1 h for the main story. Well, good luck with that! I'm in 4,5 hours in and have like 2 more levels to beat. This is the kind of game a game developer made to get revenge on his mother. YES, it is challenging. YES, I died a lot. YES, I do like it and recommend it. It has a cheap MEGA MAN vibe, the...

Venture Kid, developed by Snikkabo AS and published by FDG Entertainment, is a retro-inspired action platformer that deliberately channels the spirit of classic 8-bit era games. From its pixel art visuals to its chiptune soundtrack and tightly structured level progression, the game is a clear homage to late-1980s console action titles. Rather than attempting to modernize the formula with complex systems or expansive...

Short, Sweet, Control's well, And was fun. Just a megaman clone but its done right and it was fun. really short game. 3 hours max on normal diffuctly first time. But if your good at megaman i'm sure you could do it under 45 mins. Uhhhh what else.....soundtrack is pretty baller. And the controls as i said are tight. Get it if you got some spare cash and time.

Venture Kid is a blast 😊! This retro-style platformer follows the adventures of a kid who's exploring alien planets, solving puzzles, and battling weird creatures. The game's got a lot of charm, with pixel art graphics and a catchy soundtrack. Pros: Super Fun Gameplay: The platforming's tight, with some clever level design Adorable Graphics: The game's visuals are super cute and nostalgic Co-op is a Hit: Playing...
