An efective, joyful and funny proposal that updates the classic arcade gameplay from the 80s and 90s with adventure elements from the metroidvania genre, lots of humor and a polished pixel art, that moves like a fish in the water between a doable challenge and a fair difficulty game.
Willy Jetman: Astromonkey's Revenge has given us some fun moments without spending much money. The first big surprise of the Spanish indie development in 2020.

There are some difficulty spikes along the way and it's world lacks visual variety, but the good mostly surpasses the bad.
It's not perfect, but Willy Jetman has plenty to offer people looking for a retro-inspired game that doesn't take itself too seriously. If you're willing to look past its rough edges, you'll find yourself having a good time.
Willy Jetman: Astromonkey's Revenge is a charming indie shooter with plenty of adventures to be had, but its repetitive music, inconsistent controls and surprising difficulty curve hold it back slightly. Worth a look if you enjoy a challenge, and a quirky story.
Summary Willy Jetman: Astromonkey's Revenge is an arcade shooter full to the brim with action and shooting, inspired by the console classics of the 90s. In the orbit of the planet Gravos there has been a terrible accident that has caused an environmental disaster, filling the planet with space garbage. Willy is a street sweeper whose mission wil...
