you people might know Action 52,the infamous NES collection games made of 52 terrible games,but did you know a bunch of indie developers has set to make 52 games each inspired by an original action 52 games? some of them are pretty cool... for example

Streemerz the original game is about a clown trying to climb a tower while dodging other clown

Time Warp Tickers the original game is a platform about a pair of fingers

Time Warp Tickers the remake is a very short game which might pass quite close to a treasure game

Fuzz Power the original is an horrible platform about an hairy man

My indie game is made by someone who couldn't be further from a hipster and it'll cost 80mspoints :smug

The quality is still up in the air at this point, guess anybody who likes stuff like Princess Tomato, and likes really random nonsensical humor will like it. Plus if things pan out the way I want them to, I expect the soundtrack to at least be really good.
