Avalanche 2: Super Avalanche

Played this way back at PAX West 2014 where they held a Super Avalanche tournament, back again for a bit of nostalgia. Still a great arcade game that holds up.

It's ok.

This game is fun! I used to play the first one a lot, it was a great flash game. For this sequel, the price is really good for what your getting! I got it on sale for about $2.75 Canadian dollars. Here's the pros and cons! Pros: There's cool customizations! You can add cosmetics, and add power ups. The power ups cost coins you earn in game, but it's not super expensive to equip them, and the benefits outweigh the amount you pay. I usually like to equip the double jump bandana and the free slot, to obtain 2 power ups at once. There's good enemy design, they aren't too difficult, not too easy. And if you jump on them, you get 3 coins or so. Compared to the 1st game, this one is way better! It's super fun to replay! I think it's a roguelike, so you get different treasure chest items, coin layouts, enemies, and shops. I like how you can break blocks, after they've landed. In the first game if you get caved in, there was no escape until the lava came up. In this one if you're trapped, just bonk your head on the block above a few times, and you can escape! One addition I like in the 2nd game, is the scaffolding. It makes it easier to get around! If the scaffolding is above a sho…

I honestly need to come back to this one and try to get farther in it. I had a ton of fun, but life got in the way. If you enjoy platformers with upgrades that can kinda kick your buns in, you're likely going to be enjoying this game for a hot minute.

A solid remake of a cool flash game, very glad I found out about this game a while ago. It's a solid little experience that's definitely worth the low price!

Its pretty good if you like endless climbers
