It pays homage through gameplay and frustration. The gameplay feels like classic Mega Man. Borrowing some concepts of classic Mega Man games and putting its own twist on the concepts. The default weapon Boomerang is your go to weapon. It's the weapon I used the most through my entire playthrough and outside of opening up a few secret areas with the other weapons, you can basically progress with just the boomerang. The frustration comes from some areas where enemies are placed in such a way that you can easily be pushed into an instant death pit or spike ball. In some cases, this requires a little trial and error before you'll successfully progress. Having played the Mega Man games extensively before playing Giga Girl, I was better prepared for these instances and had a basic idea beforehand on how to tackle these scenarios. Now for someone who never has played a Mega Man game before playing this, they might rage quit before advancing very far.Difficulty wise I would say it\u2019s slightly easier than your typical Mega Man. The music is nice and fits well and the game has a satisfying ending. It\u2019s not a very long game, but finding the correct way into secrets areas could extend your playtime a bit.Overall, it\u2019s pretty fun just like the source material that it pays homage too.. THE BEST SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR TO THE NES MEGAMANcharacter differences: combat has a new feel with the boomerang its very powerful single attack adn comes back to you, character cannot jump as high, a lot of enemies are planned for your advance so be careful moving forwardfixed many annoyances experienced in the orignal megaman 1-6 such as: -enemies killing you without warning over death pits -birds dropping bombs infintely for some sections-invisible blocks are now regulated to sections you can \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665in see so you can figure out the pattern from a safe location-some enemies being only vulnerable to boss items you may or may not have yetThe creator really worked on removing the annoyances of the original series while not just outright removing them.. A great game, I hope it gets a sequel.. LSTs begin the everyone one best clone copy from the megaman series I enjoy playing it instead 8 bosses 5 & boy their hard as $#\u00a1\u2122 everyone them had to fight the weakest to beat have there's only one part of level had issue with is the underwater level there raindow jar flowing which I swear u will die a lot you'll find secret items but need bosses weapons & will b hidden place I heard this game from a trend i for right away. World is safe again.

I don\u2019t think this game was playtested at all before release.Giga Girl screams retro nostalgia. It promotes itself as a game inspired by classic Mega Man games. It looked retro, it looked spunky and it had no reviews when I first discovered it. I figured why not? I love Mega Man games, and I missed playing them. After spending a good amount of time trying Giga Girl I am left disappointed. Giga Girl, while inspired by Mega Man, doesn\u2019t have the gameplay to back it up. At first I thought it was retro hard. I laughed it off and kept trying. Then I thought, it may be be one of those really retro games that demanded you memorize level layouts. After discovering enemies are somewhat spawn and act somewhat randomly I ruled that out. Then it set in. Giga Girl is just a bad game.Giga Girl is just a frustrating and cheap experience wrapped in a nostalgic package.Expect unavoidable projectiles or enemies jumping in from different angles off screen. Think about this. Enemies do not behave the same during repeat game sessions. Most spawn at the same areas, but how they move and act differs. That means you can\u2019t even prepare for the cheap attacks even if you know they\u2019re coming. The enemies might just jump in a little higher, lower, or faster. It\u2019s maddening. In one area a group of birds spawn randomly near a large enemy who just so happens to spit out projectiles\u2026again randomly.It gets even worse because the colliders seem off. Enemies look like they don\u2019t hit you somehow do damage.Want another bad level design example? How about Giga Girl\u2019s rotating platforms. They rotate randomly. At times, platforming seems almost impossible. But wait it gets even worse! Sometimes they have enemies on top of them. These enemies shoot you off screen, but they rotate in such a way that you cannot kill them. BUT IT GETS EVEN WORSE! Sometimes these platforms overlap. You\u2019ll find yourself rotating into an enemy leading to yet another cheap death.Giga Girl is a lesson in how NOT to do a retro platformer.To see the rest of my review go here: http:\/\/nardio.net\/2016\/08\/29\/giga-girl-review\/
