Mar 5, 2018Old-school gameplay with new-school graphics and a lot of (rude) humour... Sign us up!

Mar 8, 2018There's a lot to like about Rad Rodgers as it's a well-made platforming shooter fueled by '90s nostalgia. It's a bit on the short side and the visuals were too distracting for me but I'd still recommend retro gaming fans to give it a shot.

Mar 8, 2018Rad Rodgers successfully combines mechanics from many different platform games, but sometimes becomes too repetitive.

Feb 27, 2018Rad Rodgers is a game with its ups and downs. It is entertaining, even though it does not take too much time to beat.

Mar 14, 2018The crucial factor to take into account here is the sense of humour. Do you like silly, immature humour that has no respect for the fourth wall? If you don’t, the gameplay probably isn’t strong enough to maintain your interest, particularly in a crowded genre. If you do however, the gameplay is strong enough to maintain your interest for the length of the game, slightly short though it may be.

Mar 30, 2018I have no doubt that the developers of Rad Rodgers meant their work to be a loving tribute to 16-bit platformers, and as long as the game restricts itself to fast action, it’s a perfectly fine experience. The puzzles and item hunting just don’t work, though, and those designs shouldn’t have made it through testing. Rad Rogers never rises to the level of the games it’s aping, which renders it inessential, because what’s the point of an homage that’s not even as good as its inspiration?
