I found this game because I dig the artwork of Jed Henry. Been waiting for it to come out for quite sometime, and hoping that the game itself was good as well. It is. From a design standpoint, it's really beautiful. The characters are original and engaging (giant pigs, samurai wolves etc). Edo Superstar's gameplay is also both classic and original. From a classic aspect, it builds on the basis of many past side scrollers. Each village you set out to save has mini levels within it (like the world system from Super Mario). There are quirky fights and boss battles that also remind me of "the classics". The difficulty level is also very enjoyable. You won't be rushing this entire game in one sitting, and that's something to be glad for.Thanks a ton for putting so much energy into such an awesome product! Edo Superstar is a thrilling platform fighter the likes of Marvel V Capcom or Streetfighter but set in its own unique world.Oh and the story's cool too. I like how your character is sortof just in it for his own personal fame at first. Kindof a cheeky little monkey who just wants to be an awesome fighter. On this note, the "fame currency" is a fun mechanic. Totally hoping for more games from the team in the future! Other playable characters perhaps 😮

At first it’s hard to get used to the controls, but after replaying the first couple levels I got the hang of it. It was even more challenging getting the superstars but worth it. I’m saving up for the clothes that are 5 superstars. The designs of the game are cool, but on a website there was a video you made also showing the customization of not only his clothes but also his face/ fur on his face. But overall, I would rate it a 4.5, but round it up to a 5. Though I would like to see more clothes designs and things like that.

I wrote this review when I originally played through the game, but I think most of the information still stands. I’m just awful at posting these.Great game with refreshing music, art, and style. The humor is on point and I found myself amazed by the volume of secret areas and activities. There is so much to do in this game! I spent a long time in the third world simply because I was enjoying backtracking and finding secrets I had missed. Because it is so difficult, the game naturally encourages you to go back and level up from time to time, and I enjoyed that process.The tips were actually very helpful. I found myself wishing I could read all the tips in one place.All in all, the mechanics are rewarding, and there is a deep level of complexity to the battles (not something you can say about most mobile brawlers). The game shines until the very end, bursting at the seams with creative energy. The zodiac tournament is especially fun, and there is some good character development along the way.There aren't many things I do not like about this game, but most of them are in the first and third worlds, and were revisited when I tried to collect some superstars prior to progressing to the latter worlds.A retry button, rather than an exit button, would have made superstar challenges less tedious.Some early enemies were frustrating due to mobbing/stunlock combos or the absence of a critical hit reticule (looking at the pigs from world 1).The lack of a "picking items up" animation made a certain superstar challenge in world 1 frustrating.Moving between platforms at various elevations is a bit difficult. Sometimes the game doesn't allow moves such as the divekick. This was worst when trying to avoid a flopping fish or two on boats (see 3-6). If anything, most of these flaws left me wondering if I would have had a better experience using a controller or keyboard... but after the difficulties of the first world—the second world is very fun—they were mostly problems of the past. The game has a good core and these were minor kinks that I expect to see fixed over time.Great work! Can't wait to see the next game you put out!

This game is no button masher, and it does not take endless dedication either. The result is a mobile game that is more than a way to turn off after a long day. The game is fun. (A few bugs, especially fighting rooster in Edo tournament).
