A new Wario Land-inspired title that should not fall under your radar, ANTONBLAST is an absolute bomb of a release at the tail end of the year.
The review of "Antonblast" on Gameluster describes the game as a vibrant, fast-paced platformer with a unique twist on the genre, featuring a character named Anton who uses a giant hammer to navigate through levels. The game's aesthetic is heavily inspired by the Game Boy Advance era, with a pixel art style and a soundtrack that evokes nostalgia. Antonblast's gameplay mechanics involve dynamic movement, including dashing, wall-jumping, and a special "Blast" ability that propels Anton through the air, adding depth to the platforming experience. The narrative revolves around Anton's quest to retrieve his soul from Satan, set in a world filled with quirky characters and humorous dialogue. The review praises the game for its challenging yet rewarding level design, the smooth integration of its mechanics, and its ability to maintain player engagement through both its visual charm and gameplay innovation. However, it notes that the game might be too punishing for some players due to its difficulty spikes and the precision required in certain sections.
