Story:Q*bert was a popular arcade game that was released on a large number of consoles in the early 1980s. It was developed and published by Gottlieb, and became their most successful game. The concept serves as a precursor to the isometric platformer genre, where the title character must work to turn all cubes to a certain colour in a psuedo-3D world, made 3D through isometric graphics in the same way that the Penrose Stairs was made. The game was widely successful and has become a highly recognizable brand of the 1980s gaming era.Show more

PizzaBoy
PizzaBoyTake control of PizzaBoy, a nimble pizza delivery guy equipped with an air dash that allows him to bounce off walls. This can be used to reach greater heights and distances than the standard run and jump. PizzaBoy must navigate dangerous environments to deliver pizzas to hungry monsters. Pizzaboy must make it to the end of the level to deliver the pizza but don't expect it to be too simple, as each area is full of pizza-hungry monsters. Don't get too close or they might just steal a slice! The customer won't be happy with a half-eaten pizza. The path to the customer won't always be straightforward either. Every level is a Metroidvania-style map, with many secrets, collectibles, and areas to explore. Alongside delivering pizzas, PizzaBoy may find opportunities to recover his lost memories and discover the dark secrets of the company he works for. The player's choice in how they tackle the level will determine the ending of each chapter, and ultimately the end of the game. If the customer is satisfied with your performance, you might just get a 5-star review.

Jet Set Radio Future
Jet Set Radio FutureJet Set Radio Future is a video game developed by Smilebit and is the sequel to Jet Set Radio. Similar to the original, it depicts a future Tokyo where freedom of expression is outlawed. The user plays a character in the GG's, a gang of in-line skating graffiti artists who skate around Tokyo covering up rival gangs' graffiti, knocking over Rokkaku police, and dancing to the electric soundtrack. The game uses a cel-shaded style of animation, and has been widely acclaimed for its unique music style, detailed art, and gameplay. Though the game is set in the future, its style and content incorporates many aspects of 1980's old school hip hop culture, as well as 1990's J-pop culture.

Jet Set Radio HD
Jet Set Radio HDJet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game. Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about. Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.
