About Hammer Kid

A charming pixel art platform adventure, reminiscent of the good old 16-bit days. Served as the foundation for the retro-platformer Tiny Thor.

A fun game but got a little to repetitive for me

Not recommended Feb 24, 2025

"Hammer Kid" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Tiny Thor". Tiny Thor is an abysmally failed product, one of literally SEVENTEEN THOUSAND 2D retro platformers infesting Steam, with lacklustre pixel art, derivative design, and no players, because it was a failure. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Tiny Thor, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Hammer Kid" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out an eye watering TWENTY UNITED STATES DOLLARS on buying the full "Tiny Thor" failed and playerless product... and I don't recommend you do. Twenty bucks and they can't even do computer game graphics properly... what a joke. This is only free in the same way that adverts…
