My Friend Pedro

super duper spaß skibidi sogma schaut bei meinemlieblings youtuber vor bei sein name is simex???

This game is, by far, one of Devolver Digital's least appreciated games. While we all know Devolver for their classic high-octane pixel gore games (Hotline Miami, Katana Zero, Broforce(?)) and their zanier games (Enter the Gungeon, Fork Parker's Holiday Hike), My Friend Pedro was made by a one-man team, has the best character movement I've seen in a game thus far, and some exciting-ass gunplay to match. Combine that with well-detailed environments and little sarcastic comments your enemies make, and you have yourself an incredibly enjoyable game. But did Deadtoast stop there? No, he added into the game the third-best soundtrack (note: good for going on runs with), and mixed up the formula of his original flash game. Some may cry; "But muh replayability!" In that case, the "Code Yellow" update added in game modifiers, that you hunt down and can activate from the main menu, to spice combat up. I've been perfecting the most Devolver-like experience by combining difficulty with speed. Play on Hard, and then play on Bananas.

I mean the story is nice, the pacing is great and the action is over the top. Sadly, controls are a bit of a mess that drags down a rather cool but short experience. 7.5 from me.

No story to really speak off, a very short run time of about 5-6 hours, however the meat of this game is replayability, going for the S rank on each level, trying out different methods of taking down enemies. Controls work great, other than a slight issue with the roll, which causes you to be stuck in a roll animation whilst you need to be shooting. No matter how bad you play, you still feel like a legend playing this game. Some very tough and frustrating platforming in the final level, which caught me off guard since the games strength is most certain not in platforming and doing precision wall jumping ect. It had me replaying the one section about 30 times to just get through a rope section which was very poorly done taking into account the very limited control you actually have for wall jumping. Fortunately the game is VERY forgiving with check points and it loads within 1-2 seconds to restart literally a second or two from where you failed.

An interesting run'n'gun in which you can slow down time Matrix style. Unfortunately the action to do so is clicking down the left analog stick, so it happened quite often hit it without wanting to slow down time. The game's nice though. Just a little short, especially if you're not after high scores.
