Super Kiwi 64
2022
Siactro has really found their niche with Nintendo 64 style platformers. With Macbat 64, I've played everything in their catalog, so I can confidently say this was one of my favorites. Their strength is definitely in the collectathon inspired games, and Macbat 64 shone for its level and gameplay variety. Each stage had some unique quirks and gameplay elements to make them individually endearing, and the overall package is satisfying as a result. I'd still love to see Siactro take on a larger project, but these smaller games do make for cute palette cleansers between longer games.

This is a game I saw on the store when I was a kid and ever since then I've been wanting to play it. After almost 20 years... I got very disappointed.
The aesthetic is good, I liked cel-shaded carl and aqua teens. As for the gameplay... One of the worst I've seen on a ps2 game. Super janky, the movement felt really sluggish, the combat was extremely awful cuz nothing felt responsive, have you imagined how frustrated you would feel in master shake's body? Exactly like that... heck, not even the golf aspect was done that well! After playing it for an hour gets annoying.
I really like ATHF and the game does a good job of keeping the shitpost nature of the show but it does it so much to the point of being really bad lol
