I love you4 found this helpful
I had fond memories of playing the original Rocket Knight at a friend's house when I was a kid, so I thought "why not?" I regretted this decision very quickly. I knew from the videos and images that the game doesn't look very good. What I could not tell is that is just controls kinda ... bad. It's been a long time, and maybe the original isn't as good as I remember, but in these days there's just no excuse for moving and attacking to feel so lackluster and weak.
so good best 2d
I have played the other rocket knight games and this one is definitely the worst one kinda lame but the gameplay is still a little fun, but i don't think i would recommend this game. If you want to play rocket knight just pick up the collection from limited run 4/10
A fun 2D platformer. Didn't know this game was on steam so that was pretty nice.
Every time I look through my Steam Library and I see this game, I get [REAL]. It's been 15 years, and Konami has refused to revisit this series or at least hire a decent 3rd party developer to take a wack at the game. I'm sure there are some small time dev's out there that would love to make a decent Sparkster game, with better visual directions and gameplay; hell maybe even expand on the Rocket Knight mechanics. Sparkster the Rocket is still a great series and can potentially offer so much if it were given a proper chance. Bubsy is getting that treatment right now you know, Konami could easily do the same here and make some real noise, rather than making sub-par re-releases that offer close to nothing new. Oh yeah, don't buy this game. It's sub-par at best, but the art style sucks and probably dosen't work on modern machines.
