fun time waster game i guess

I'm old enough to appreciate how ugly the box art and Spyro's design really are (my dad bought me all the skylanders! i'm sorry pops that wasn't worth it)

Of all the Kirby clones to ever, this is one of the to do 🤯. What I mean is, I prefer Breakout over Puyo Puyo and pinball and golf. But is it undeniably better? Erm no compare my ratings 🤓 that said, it's still a pretty cool spin on the formula whilst the pink ball cometh with his trustworthy abilities! There are huh, only four! If it's the thought that counts, it better count extra. This is the closest he has been to Ball Kirby in its genesis state, the Kirby's Adventure ability. This guy really said "lemme break the game to sizes with Fire Kirby" because it really trivializes the game once you have it. The hidden 5th ability is the power bounce! You can transform Kirby into Kirbyg Chungus to pulverize some walls that Dedede easily could have destroyed as we saw in The Crystal Shards, but alas we have to fight him a lot before that entry, including this one.

You may ask, what's the difference between Breakout and this clown ass clone? Or you may ask what's Obama's last name. But if you ask the former, you may find an answer. There are four sides (EarthBound reference) and the bumpers are on each side... sometimes. It can get quite hectic, and you may have to cross the border if you want a good ending. No, this is not an immigration reference, you really have to break the borders in each boss stage if you want to live happily ever after. Weird concept huh? Kirby always be doin the most just to get good endings. One thing I didn't really like were the bonus minigames in the middle of stages, since I felt played by Lady Luck's hand. Though, they're just bonuses, no harm in failing. I have terminal cancer and 30 seconds to live and this minigame is the last thing I'll ever see. Goodb ye

There are a few enemies in this. Enemies are a staple in Kirby games as you probably know! My guy Waddle Doo couldn't even make the cut, but who cares my boy Squishy is bussin'. He's even a boss slayyy that's way better than appearing in one measly room in Amazing Mirror but he looks pissed af ngl. There's quite the number of stages to keep a guy occupied, I felt some of the later bosses, however were... ugh. You spin me round round baby round round typa mf Mr. Frosty. What do you mean, he's right in the middle as far as boss order goes? Oo boy.. It really feels as if time passes very slowly. In short, don't chase your dreams lil bro, give up. You will not meet the King like that just take a shower and brush yo teeth, do not neglect your health, stay hydrated! And move on to the other Kirby games because there's a lot more where it came from.

Yeah, pretty good game honestly.

The whip feels amazing to use in this game, you get plenty of use out of being able to delete projectiles with it, and there's the fun hook things you can use the whip on that never outstay their welcome.

I do think this game would be rated higher if it didn't suddenly go crazy with the difficulty spikes and the million instakill obstacles in the late-game. Death being harder than Dracula was also a really weird design decision.

Overall? A pretty damn good game that still holds up today.

Colorblindness Rating: A
Though some bosses have weird flashing stuff for I-frames and some obstacles kind of blend into the background, this game is fine in the colorblindness department. Hurrah.

"Ugggh that Giygas' Lair ahh labyrinth in DL3 sucks!!!" dw, we got you covered hands you sterile Kirby game in slow motion. That is not the nicest thing to say to Super Star, though it rings kinda true sometimes. It does more right than wrong ultimately, and that's what (Dark) matters. Did you know that one bird in Meta Knight's story? His name in german, it's Käpt'n Geyer, this one is funny idk why every german word sounds like somebody cursing my bloodline tho. He really left the ship in one (1) nanosecond! Too ashamed to appear again. I gotta admit, I forgot him from when I played Super Star Ultra all those years ago. I can understand why ahah.

Super Star truly is a fun pak, indeed there's a remake of Dream's Land with abilities (KINO??) a new adventure with Dream's Land vibes and design (SOUL??), an entire gamemode for le epic Meta Knight (PEAK??), a collectibles hunting game where you find goofy shit and come back whenever you want once you've reached the end of the roaaaaad (BANGER??), Marx taking a shit in space and creating a black hole (HOLY BASED??) a racing short story where you eat unhealthy food (SLOP??!). Then the... Arena. And minigames. I feel like this section is entirely useless if you've played the game before, but yeah Milky Way Wishes is the peak and Gourmet Race is the bottom. The variety of content is setting my gyatt on fire although what I said about "better than the sum of its parts" for Dream Course applies here... less positvely.

Definitely, the best part about Super Star is a lot of abilities most having their own movesets. Quantity over quality... stfu i'm getting both!! It's no wonder Yo-Yo disappeared for a while although there must be personal beef if it took Star Allies to get this banger ability back. I also love Ninja you can go off-screen without action replay cheating... spark is so cool you can spark up and booom you release! What's also great is opening the pause menu and Kirby smiles at you and yells in caps "YOU SHOULD KILL YOURSELF...NOW!!" oh thankfully he didn't do that, he doesn't warn you that bosses are gonna be bangers though so that's definitely the 2nd best part since Kirby games don't have a good track record in their first decade in the gamingsphere.

It sounds like I'm describing a game with a higher rating and clicked on a completely different game's logs, when I am in fact just not feeling it. I've played co-op, cool time with bestie but I might just be struggling to feel anything after being used to the DS one. I don't remember the control scheme being this wacky for starters. The graphics are kinda yucky compared to like, every other Kirby game that ever Kirby'd ngl. He looks like he's on the bus home from Harvard. He no pursu higher education bcuz time for studying = less time for eating ppl ! !

I’ve played more of this than most people. it saved the video game crash!

This truly was... a Persona 3 Reload

"In my restless dreams, I see that house. Silent House." Connoisseurs will know for sure that this is the game that dared to ask "Better to cum in the sink? Or sink in the cum?" sounds familiar... and such a loaded bull of a question for an oeuvre directed at girls (you can tidy the house and decorate it) but perhaps the fairer sex can womansplain their rhetoric to me. Wait, where does the microwaved food come into this? If we were all being fr rn, even if you don't have a gender, nobody can be expected to handle the ephemeral art that is cooking. Moms hit different. Somehow this has nothing to do with the topic at hand, let's get back to this game rated E for everyone.

One indie horror game a day keeps the streamer away (from society). Streamers be like "I HEARD A WATER DROPLET AND SHAT MY PANTS GRAAAAAAH" they know they would be jobn't without them though. Devs be plotting this in advance doin that devious ahh shit flies do when they're landed on the table. Nah honestly we're not cooked yet, see there's no jumpscare! No horror! Just psychological breaking & entering teehee. I'm swearing off drinking water after this, we are officially breaking up 💀 I will turn to vodka for sustenance. Deep down somewhere in the trenches of GameBanana, therein must lie a mod overhaul aptly named "The Windows Are Goon".

It's not a bad game in retrospect, even while I mischievously clicked the 1 star icon in Backloggd I knew as much, but these games really feel dime a dozen these days, haven't they? This is the scapegoat for my frustration!! Well, I wish I could say that, but I was just existentially bored. There's not a lot of entertainment in that horizontally challenged household. The camel that strawed the broke back is homie sleeping with the door open, bro dreaming he's fresh in the countryside tired of making a few easy bucks on the bustling streets. The takeaway is that bro needs therapy. Mods, get that Kickstarter goin.

This isnt no Dream Land 2. This punk ass pink punk got himself a highschool clique. This time, I wasn't deadset on abusing the same ability throughout, although like an addict relapsing it happened again in 64. If you were wondering why small gatherings of minors were forbidden at certain malls, well this is because Kirby has been there! This is certainly logical. We have watched his career with great interest and he's still finding more and more people to help him suck. One of his friends is a bit more independant than the others, his name is Gooey and he keeps me from sucking! That is why I avoided using him because I'm not about that life, but it was easy to press the wrong input and summon the fool. Go to bed already!

Eating crayons is good but how about using them for a good artstyle? Now thats making a killing! I'm kidding this absolutely FLOPPED every american was playing Ocarina of Time by then. But still, there are particles, visual feedback, the...flying Touhou witches, moving backgrounds. I'd drink to that, but I must stay sharp, for the fog is still coming. Once again you have to grind out if you wanna book a meeting with the eldritch abomination of a final boss during lunch hours. I suggest looking up some of the ways you can finish levels properly if you do not want to experience the walk of shame upon your way back to the world map. As there aren't many worlds, the darker side of this truth is that levels can take quite some time to finish, but it's reasonably okay. So I guess you can shamewalk a bit.

This guy Dedede is not doing no Ramadan, even his belly is in on the feast. I know he didn't brush his teeth down there. This and the spiders with them freakishly long legs make this the scariest entry in the mascot horror genre. I love spiders too, but maybe not legs. Everybody gangsta when Whispy Woods got a pair of his own and starts chasing you! top cinco rumpscaré yup and then there was a tanuki wow and the world watches in horror as I put him 6 feet under.

I know Kirby was starting to get stale for some people and they wanted another Super Star, but to me that is a better game. I am fine with this. This is definitely one of the games I like. If it wasn't absurd with the invulnerability frames I wouldn't be passed around like a blunt but I guess it'd be less funny. What was Meta Knight doing during all this though like naaaah fuck that harbinger of evil shit I'm hitting my Zzzs.
