Reviews

“Rad Rodgers: Radical Edition [...] is something every gamer should play that grew up during the 16-bit gaming era. It’s a gorgeous trip back in time that is soaked in pixelated nostalgia. Some of the finest 2D shooters were born on the SNES and Genesis, and this title will bring you straight back to that golden age of gaming.”
92 –

“It is a simple game with a simple goal; to bring a fresh aesthetic to a classic genre model[...]. It does this perfectly, with the right levels of challenge, attitude and visual excitement to spike the player’s endorphins from level to level.”
9/10 –

“Tricky and at times intense, Rad Rogers – Radical Edition is an explosion of 90’s goodness fused with an overdose of modern day eye candy and gameplay. Be rad, and own this one.”
4.8/5 –

About This Game

The Story

Rad is a rambunctious but spirited young boy who maybe plays too many video games. After dozing off at the tail end of a long night of gaming, Rad awakens to find his dusty old console has turned itself back on. Suddenly a vortex emerges and he's sucked into his TV, where he finds himself the star in his very own video game adventure.

Dusty is Rad's good-hearted but foul-mouthed, now-sentient game console. His clock speed isn't what it used to be, but what he lacks for in megahertz he makes up for with experience and attitude!

Rad & Dusty's adventure takes them through many dangerous stages of action-packed, humor-filled, hardcore platforming fun. This decaying jungle world has been infected by a fierce corruption, and it's up to the unlikely buddy-duo Rad and Dusty to save the jungle's inhabitants and restore the Elder Tree as guardian of the land.

Features

Weapons: Dusty arms Rad with a variety of radical bad-ass weaponry. The Bolt Blaster has unlimited ammo, is easy to use, and more than enough firepower to get the job done. The Phoenix Cannon shoots out a fiery bird whose wingspan lights enemies ablaze as it flies by.

Sounds & Music: Composer Andrew Hulshult combined his years of musical experience (both performing and writing) with his passion for retro-style gaming to create an amazing and authentic soundtrack for the game complete with MIDI-inspired music... And synthesizers!

The Pixelverse: While Rad and Dusty are a great team, only Dusty can enter the electrified Pixelverse -- a dangerous spacetime-breaking region that exists behind the game world. Dusty enters the Pixelverse when necessary to repair glitches in the running game world, allowing both Rad & Dusty to continue their journey.

Classic Easter Eggs: The game features hard-to-find collectibles in sometimes even harder-to-find classic secret rooms. Use your precision platforming skills to collect 'em all.
