Barbie Seahorse

Post by eMTe »

Mario-like game with retro graphics and jumping seahorse ( :shock: ) as protagonist. Adds nothing new to the genre, but fans of Mario clones and seahorses shouldnt miss it. :P

Developer: The Olde Battleaxe

Any reasons why there is a seahorse hopping happily around outside the sea?

But I admit that's not really my main problem with the game. It's a simple platform game (there's nothing bad about that), but what I really hate is that the enemies always return once you're out of side. Even when you just jump up and fall down again, they are back to kill you. That is really annoying!

There are also some graphical glitches (mainly when you shoot your bubbles). But I don't care to much about that.

Graphics and music have an extreme retro style. Controlling works fine with a gamepad. So after all an ok platform game for all the people who like the retro style.
