The classic platformer genre might have seen a dip in popularity, but mobile devices remain a perfect playground for jumping, dodging, and shooting. The beloved Metroidvania-style platformer, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons, has made a triumphant return with the release of Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake, now available on iOS and Android.
Interestingly, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake stays true to its retro roots while introducing a fresh twist. The game transitions from the iconic monochrome Game Boy black and green palette to vibrant 16-bit console-style graphics, giving players the nostalgic feel of a classic rerelease. Beyond the visual overhaul, this remake is a comprehensive upgrade, smoothing out the rough edges of its predecessor and enhancing the overall gameplay experience.
Our reviewer, Jack Brassel, pointed out a significant drawback: the absence of controller support. For many platformer enthusiasts, this can be a deal-breaker, as I've experienced with games like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. However, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake offers a more forgiving difficulty level, which might mitigate this issue for some players.
If you're in the mood for pure platforming action with a dash of Metroidvania flair, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake is a must-play. The graphical upgrade brings beautifully colored pixel art to your screen, without demanding too much from your device's hardware.
While the lack of controller support might be a temporary setback, it's likely that this oversight will be addressed in future updates.
