TMNT: Shredder's Revenge - Arcade Mode - Gnarly 1CC (Raphael)

TMNT Shredder's Revenge is finally out! This is a brand new beat 'em up developed by Tribute Games, which was heavily inspired by Konami's classic arcade games, and the early 90s era of the series. I grew up on this stuff, so it's nostalgic seeing all of the references to the cartoon, movies, and games. They packed so much into it, that they ended up with a run time of nearly 2 hours, making this one of the longest beat 'em ups I've ever played. That'll be somewhat polarizing, but I don't mind the length, personally.

Gnarly is the name for this game's hard mode. The normal difficulty is very easy to clear, and while Gnarly seemingly had very minor adjustments, it's quite a bit more difficult. From what I can tell they basically make you take twice as much damage, and bosses have twice as much health. I think some enemies also move faster or can be more aggressive, but I'm not really sure tbh. Still, you get 1UPs every 200 points, so you've got a lot of breathing room for mistakes.

Rafael is really strong. Both of his running attacks do two points of damage and lead directly into a combo. His dragon punch has a good hitbox on it too. The only thing I don't like about him is that his dropkick sends the enemy flying back. It does two points of damage, but I think every other character can follow up their evade attack with a combo, so the knockback on Raf's isn't as useful. Other than that, he's great.

Anyway, it's a great game and I'll be playing it a lot more. If you're a fan of the classic turtles, you have to play this. It was made for you!

Shredder's Revenge is available on all major platforms, including Xbox/PC Game Pass.
