sailing the seas of cheese

COCORON

quirky and charming - if flawed

this is a platformer where you create your own character. by virtue of the nes it's worth a look for that fact alone

that said, cocoron's level design isn't really anything terribly special. it's not bad, but as far as platformers go it's pretty bog standard

style does a lot of legwork as per a lot of japanese-only titles. it goes without saying, but the enemies and locales are totally ridiculous and wacky as all hell

i mean shit - how many games can you think of that let you fight the moon from le voyage dans la lune as a spring-jumping gundam?
