this is a love letter to cinemassacre and it's very replayable too
HI IM MIAAKE MAGEE FORM ICKKCEMAMSNC CMAMY O UWMAYE MY COCK MNNN?!!!

The music fucking slaps but the game itself is pretty meh.

3 Stars so the graph looks like the nerd flipping you off

Played a little bit back around 2018 I believe.
I found out about AVGN way later and picked up this game because of the web series. Kind of a nothing 2D sidescroller with a lot of profanity. If you needed the nerd in a Mega Man like, here ya go.

I was a fuckin huge fan of this game!! I remember staying up late until like 5:40 trying to beat it. Good times.


If you thought you were playing some kind of crap, you didn’t. The game was created for fun and memes from the reviews of the current reviewer of old crap on old consoles. For fans only. And yes - THIS GAME REALLY SUCKS.

Если Вам показалось что Вы играете в какое то дерьмо, Вам не показалось. Игра была создана ради фана и мемов из обзоров ныне существующего обзорщика старого дерьма на старых консолях. Для фанатов только. И да - ЭТА ИГРА РЕАЛЬНО СОСЁТ.

Hard as balls but really well done.

Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is a great game. It’s focus was to make a perfect, responsive 8-bit platformer to revive the genre, and they succeeded in doing so.

The game does not take itself seriously, as could be expected. It follows a simple story of the Nerd who get pulled into the TV by his balls, and is now trapped in a video game world. The only way to get out is by completing all the worlds and defeat the end boss. You got seven worlds to complete. Six normal stages that can be played in every order you like, and the final stage that unlocks when you complete the other six.

The Nerd himself was involved in the progress and because of that, many of his arch nemesis’s, companions and references are present in the game. You got Super Mega Death Christ to obliterate everything on the screen, you got the Glitch Gremlin that freezes time, and you collect beers for health power-ups. You fight the Devil, Santa, Jekyll and Hyde, The Giant Claw and ultimately, Fred Fuchs, the hated programmer that the Nerd references in his episodes a lot.

The graphics are solid. They look 8-bit, but are from the modern days. Sprites and effects are colorful, sharp and polished. It just looks right. The animations, walk cycles and spinning objects are also really well done.

The music in this game is glorious. Every stage has its own unique tracks and they all sound great! It consists of 8-bit renditions, with a modern twist. My personal favorites are Assholevania and Future F*ckballs.

In terms of controls, Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures nails it. It is one of its strongest points and they feel just fluent and perfect. No slippery jumps, no shooting in only one direction, no cheap deaths by missing a jump on a tiny platform, it just works.

Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is filled with vulgar jokes, slurs that the Nerd expresses multiple times in his episodes and all the misspellings and satire that he points out in the show. It is hilarious to see another reference popup on the screen when you die, when you complete a stage or just out of the blue while playing.

When talking difficulty, this game is hard, really hard. It is intentionally made to be this hard to provide players with the same frustration and anger as the Nerd does in his shows. All the stages are doable, they just require a lot of retries and patterns to master. I could complain about the game being too hard, but it is not valid. You just need to git gut.

The game provides you with a decent amount of playtime, especially for the price. The levels are fair in length and offer enough variation. The game can be a little weird if you don’t know the Angry Video Game Nerd but almost everyone who bought this game has some idea of who he is.

In the end, I really liked Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures and would recommend it to everyone.

A Hell of a fun game! It's for all those AVGN fans out there and those sadist who love games that are extremely difficult. Never got very far in it, however it is a hell of a lot of fun and I love every minute of it. You get to kill all kinds of monsters based on his show and those that had the description of the other creatures from old NES classics.

A hell of a game and damn difficult. I recommend this to anyone who is a AVGN fan.

Edit: This can be both fun, but also it is so very difficult too! Kinda like that game called "The Guy" or whatever it was called, but it's nowhere near as unfair as that game. That said, it feels like this game was designed to make you scream insults exactly like AVGN.

Hey y'all, JonTron here, I'll remember it so you don't have to

rage game with some fun boss fights and character options
powerups feel good to use
its not fun enough to warrant playing on the higher difficulties though, beat on old school and that's definitely enough for me

Mostly competent except when it wants to be and otherwise pretty dull and frustrating. Like I had seen a decent amount of gameplay for this over the years and went in the assumption that it'd be like a okay 7 and man it was not

Not a fan of how this one played. felt. very cheap, novelty wore off quick.

If you like retro side scrollers, this game is for you. As the description says; is a Mega Man/Castlevania inspired game. Run, jump, shoot stuff. But with the AVGN on the lead.

If you've seen at least one of his videos, you will feel comfortable playing this game. Pure unfiltered goodness. The levels are all inspired in his videos too, among some other parodies.

A bit unfair at times. You will die a ton. It captures that spirit of the NES games very well.

I totaled out at 665 deaths, lame

It's kinda bullshit at times, random instakill blocks smattered all over the place
The secret character skeleton is pretty much required to beat the final boss, I guess if you're good enough you dont need to

A lot of trial and error which makes me glad I played easy mode, although maybe Im just bad at it too,

IDK it has that "retro" vibe that I dont like, where its more like megaman than anything and even the nerd looks like a megaman sprite,

its fine I guess but annoying

What a horrible night to have a curse! ...The curse of being forced to review this shitty game!!

It does its job pretty alright and catches the energy and feeling of the AVGN frustration in a single videogame greatly.
It does rely way too often on the bullshit level design on purpose to be more a fanservice parody (still fairly well done) than a proper game with its own identity (I mean, yeah, I know, it's technically a tie-in).

Short and difficult, though not as bullshit as it's trying to make itself look

Game is whatever but the ost absolutely FUCKS

booba level has boobs. Also nerd angry

Anecdotique et pas fan de l'humour global.

My detractors would have you believe the toxic lie that I ripped off AVGN's whole personality. That is 100% a lie.
James has never been a meaningful content creator, like me. If anything, HE ripped off ME (ree) because I invented the 'let's play.' It just pisses me off because avgn is super rich, while I gotta beg for donations for the rest of my life.
Y'know, it's been tough... :'(


I know it's trying to be annoying on purpose, but really, it's very, very annoying.

Exactly what I'd expect out of an AVGN game.

(Played the Deluxe version)

The best thing to come out of AVGN post-movie
