I'm so glad I was finally able to show off Mohawk for so many new people! I unironically love this game, and have immense respect for the mastermind behind it all, D. Scott Williamson. This was an incredibly fun run to perform, and I couldn't ask for a better result. Shoutouts to the crowd for being such a blast to play off of, and to everybody who watched this run or supported AGDQ in any way. ^_^

I actually unironically liked this game as a kid, I got to the orbatron boss, unfortunately it was always a rental so I never got farther. This and metal warriors were 2 games I would rent after I already had a Playstation, even when I had PS games available. I was glad it got shown at AGDQ although I feel it was too good for awful block.

Like pj said, this game is a technical marvel for the SNES. The fact it can run with 1 or 2 minor glitches, with PJ, the master of breaking games, saying it's solidly constructed is praise all in itself. The camera makes this "awful", but the game itself is amazing. Definitely worth a play.

Honestly, Mohawk skirts the line between what I'd call "Memorably bad" and "Memorably good". It's got some good ideas, it's got some obvious love put into it, and it pulls off some interesting stuff with what it's got... It just needs some polish (such as having it be made a bit more clear where the player can and can't go and making what the player needs to do more apparent) plus some slightly beefier hardware to really work. Hell, I bet if it were a Super FX game it'd run a lot more smoothly.

@sdgdhpmbp 4 жыл бұрын

Does it need polish? I mean every game can be polished further depending on creator's standards but for this I don't see any area that truly could be improved. It's not a game for everyone, that's for sure. But there aren't that many games that manage to show what they intend as well as Mohawk. I know I'd never play it. However, I'm genuinely curious what the creative process and especially the programming phase was like.

This is my third-maybe fourth-time rewatching this run since AGDQ2019, and I still find this run a delight to watch. I'm thankfully not particularly vulnerable to motion sickness (at least not from moving graphics), so luckily I've not had too much trouble watching this run that many times. What a technical marvel this is. Those maps are huge and the gravity mechanic is really ahead of its time!
