Rock Boshers is the converse of Shovel Knight. Where Shovel Knight is a modern adaptation of a beloved genre, Rock Boshers plainly is that genre. And while this may give it a somewhat esoteric nature, there's a lot to love in Tikipod's Victorian, snack-coveting Martian romp.As any fan of that era of videogames will have you know, nostalgia is far too generous, and the 8-bit era was downright, goddamn terrible. However, the very spartan capabilities of these systems are what made the games such a joy to experience, as any able developer could only desperately try to navigate the poor hardware. Whenever you can pull something even mildly decent out of those systems, it's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Inexplicable magic!This is the paradigm wherein we encounter Rock Boshers. Tikipod has been zealous in its loyalty to the system limitations of the ZX Spectrum, and has produced a game that would have been an instant classic in the European-loved home computer's heyday. Objectively, the creative design is a real pleasure. The visuals are stylish and well-made, the sound design is a joy to hear, and the (albeit basic) plot and premise are perfectly silly, making Rock Boshers exude charm. The gameplay, however, is much more subjective: it feels like an 8-bit game. That's a very much "take-it-how-you-will" kind of statement, as I enjoy it and praise Tikipod for succeeding so well in its design, but...I feel that the later parts of the game may provide a greater challenge than some players are interested in taking on. True to form, some parts even feel like they're difficult for the sake of making the overall game last longer (which is exactly how 8-bit games were designed). In this way, the visuals may be deceptively benign to the less initiated audience.That said, I completed the game at around the 4 hour mark, and for perfectionists, I perfected all of the achievements at around 5 hours, so it's a relatively quick and enjoyable turnaround.. Let's not pretend this is the best thing since sliced bread: this is a cheap and cheerful, if amusing, pastiche of a Spectrum game, with modern touches such as "it's basically fair". It was amusing and harmless for two hours, it pushed my nostalgia button (particularly the sound of the attributes loading in on the loading screen), and that's that. Recommended to people like me because it's cheap.. I bought this because I'm a fan of the ZX Spectrum and steampunk. It doesn't disappoint.. I wish I liked twinstick shooters.Excellent flufftext and style, pulls off its pulp fiction victoriana retro arcade thing with aplomb. It reminds me of DROD, but live instead of turnbased. Expect puzzlerooms of the find-key / put it in the door / rinse repeat variety, with constantly respawning enemies so you have to be able to aim and dodge while navigating small rooms and tight corridors.I really, really wish I liked twinstick shooters.Still, it's a delightful game and more people should play it.. Fun little game that gives the feel of an old computer game like The Pit but with the smoothness and extra "layers" expected from a modern counterpart.. Fun -brings me back to the 80's.. I bought this because I'm a fan of the ZX Spectrum and steampunk. It doesn't disappoint.. So completely charming, AND fun.Cute little sprites, endearing writing, and gameplay that's 3 parts puzzle, 2 parts stick-shooter, and 5 parts whimsy.. I also covered this game on my YouTube channel.This is a game for a very specific type of audience. It aims to fully emulate the type of game that was common on 8-bit home computers like the ZX Spectrum but with original content. This can best be described as a multi-level puzzle twin-stick shooter combo with a light story. It's fairly challenging and can be frustrating at times but it does what it sets out to do very well. You've got to be into this kind of game but if you are, you'll love it.
