TMNT Shredder's Revenge is finally out! This is a brand new beat 'em up developed by Tribute Games, which was heavily inspired by Konami's classic arcade games, and the early 90s era of the series. I grew up on this stuff, so it's nostalgic seeing all of the references to the cartoon, movies, and games. They packed so much into it, that they ended up with a run time of nearly 2 hours, making this one of the longest beat 'em ups I've ever played. That'll be somewhat polarizing, but I don't mind the length, personally.
Gnarly is the name for this game's hard mode. The normal difficulty is very easy to clear, and while Gnarly seemingly had very minor adjustments, it's quite a bit more difficult. From what I can tell they basically make you take twice as much damage, and bosses have twice as much health. I think some enemies also move faster or can be more aggressive, but I'm not really sure tbh. Still, you get 1UPs every 200 points, so you've got a lot of breathing room for mistakes.
Splinter is really strong. I'm not sure if he has higher DPS than Raph, since his attacks are slow, but he hits like a truck. The third and fourth attack in his combo do extra damage, and his running attack does 3 points of damage - the highest in the game. His supers aren't that great, but they get the job done.
So I managed to clear the game without dying. The biggest roadblock was Captain Zorax, but he's not a problem once you understand how he works. I was overthinking it until now by trying to be super aggressive, but all you need to do is go on for a combo, back off to avoid his punch, move down/up to dodge his gunfire (he shoots 3 times at first, then 6 times when he's below 50% health), and go back in for another combo. You should also make sure you have a super ready for his stampede. When he does that, the first dino he sends seems to be straight at you, so most of the time you can move to the top or bottom of the screen and get a quick taunt in. You'll want that super to instantly kill the dino that stays behind. And that's all you really need to do, he's not too dangerous if you play safe and reach him with most of your health (to keep the extra pizza for backup).
Chrome Dome is still pretty dangerous. You need to keep track of the timing for when he's going to punch you, otherwise one good smack could lead to the end of your no death run. I also think it might be safer to just clear out all the Foot soldiers and hit the barrel when he drops down, instead of tossing one of them at the screen. That leaves you open for a moment, so you have to be really careful about doing that.
The rest of the game isn't that hard once you understand what to do. I gotta admit though, I thought I was dead after I got hit on the statue, then took some more dumb hits on Super Shredder. That was too close for comfort.
PS. There's a cut right after Leatherhead. I had to go to the bathroom and just let it run for a bit, I think I edited it together pretty cleanly though. Just pointing it out if anyone sees it and wonders why it's there.
Anyway, this is a great game and I'll be playing it a lot more. If you're a fan of the classic turtles, you have to play this. It was made for you!
Shredder's Revenge is available on all major platforms, including Xbox/PC Game Pass.
