Tribute Games have made what I now consider to be the gold standard for Beat ’em up games, and anyone who attempts to follow them up must aspire beyond the high bar that is Shredder’s Revenge. This game isn’t a big budget AAA title, that is trying to be something it’s not it is what it is, and it excels at that. Tribute Games were that team, and they succeeded. Whatever the case, I think we can all agree that this IP is special, and it’s a shame they don’t have as strong a presence in pop culture as they once did.Īll they needed was a talented team to come along, and utilize all of their best strengths in one package, showcasing what makes this universe so remarkable. Some found them in movies some found them on TV, or maybe even in the arcade all those years ago. Closing Remarksįor many of us, the Turtles have a special place in our hearts.

Shredder’s revenge CO-OP is the most fun YOU’LL HAVE GAMING WITH YOUR FRIENDS IN 2022. I played with my best friends Skylar and Alex, and it was a pizza-fueled joy ride from beginning to end.

I’m sure the game is still fun by yourself, but I think you would be doing yourself a disservice. If you ‘ve thought about jumping into Shredder’s Revenge solo, I implore you to get a few of your buddies and play CO-OP. The animations are slick, nothing feels out of place, and you feel the punch with every encounter. The pixel art is superb, and it’s combined with an equally great 90’s fueled score. The visuals and sound design in Shredder’s Revenge are top notch. Whether it was a multitude of ninjas, each with a different fighting style, or more wackier enemies like big dinosaurs that wield rocket launchers or pizza monsters that come out of the ground. I never got tired of fighting, partly because the combat in this game is just that good, but also because I felt like something new was always being thrown at me. This game has some phenomenal enemy variety. It’s not just the characters, but the world that also got the same attention to detail. They each feel distinct, down to their individual quirks, which is how the Turtles and their supporting cast should be. Whether it’s Donatello whipping out a Game Boy during his taunt, Raphael’s always serious scowl, or Leonardo being the only turtle with a flipping sword attack coming out of a double jump. I think Tribute Games did a stellar job with making each character feel fun and different to use, and they did so by paying attention to the little things. Donatello has outstanding range attacks, which makes attacking enemies from a safe distance viable.

Each turtle has their strengths and weaknesses, Michelangelo, my favorite of all the turtles, has tremendous speed coupled with his outlandish personality.
