[i] What a horrible night to leave a review[/i]. Jack B. Nimble is the purest form of castlevania, whipping candles and falling into pits (needs some annoying birds though). One of the better runner games that I played just because it has more than one level and unlockable characters. There are several endless stages that gradually increase in difficulty. You need 4 million points to unlock all of them, which is not a lot considering that it counts your overall score. You should be able to see the entire game in about 2 hours, although there are some hidden unlocks and you can play for online leaderboards. The game is just very charming and the soundtrack is super enjoyable. Even though the characters are just cosmetic, it's nice to have a little bit of variety, plus you can unlock several colors for the aesthetic. It is a simple game that controls with one button, but for what it is, I had a good time with it. [h1] Pros: [/h1] + nice pixel art, good stage variety + unlockable charac...

Eventhough this game is NOT STAR MARINE, it still pulls off being a great sequel to goldeneye 64, and though it has hints of super mario run, it totally exceeds the quality of Superman 64. In conclusion, Jack B. Nimble is a great runner. It is hard to find a good one, and this is a hard good one. Worth buying for the sound track alone. Honestly, I think the creator should be poised to selling the soundtrack on steam as well. Great game! EDIT: This game needs to be on android and not just the apple store and steam.

It's a fun game with classic Gameboy vibes, but this time it's 4K capable instead of a small DOT Matrix screen The developer Sean Noonan is a great guy as well currently working on a new title called SENTRY by Fireblade Software which is a retro shooter

Wonderful game with awesome chiptunes! Definitely inspired by: 1. Castlevania, with its music and whipping mechanics against candles 2. The on-rails platformer levels in Super Mario Bros. 3 3. The speed of Sonic the Hedgehog All of this makes for great gameplay based on judgment and relfex-based button presses. It's a simple game, but it has a lot of value despite its simplicity.
