Kid Bubblegum is a unique retro paltformer done in a SMS or early Genesis/Megadrive style! It revolves around the titular character making and utilizing bubblegum bubbles to attack enemies and to aid in jumping. These bubbles add a unique spin to classic platformers. Unlike Mario or Sonic, KB can't jump very high or far without the aid of his bubbles and so in order to reach certain heights or cross certain pits, he has to place bubbles in specific places (and you can only place 3 at a time). This adds a welcomed strategic element that's not normally found in platformers.
Aesthetically, the game is absolutely gorgeous, while remaining true to the style of the SMS/Early Genesis/Megadrive style!
I look forward to coming back to this one after SAGE!
