Saturday Morning RPG is an episodic JRPG set in world heavily inspired by 1980s Saturday morning cartoons and pop culture. Players take the role of Martin "Marty" Michael Hall, an average high-school student who has just been granted an incredible power - a power that ultimately leads him to attract the ire of the world's most notorious villain, Commander Hood! Saturday Morning RPG features a full soundtrack by legendary composer Vince DiCola (Transformers: The Animated Movie, Rocky IV) and his composing partner, Kenny Meriedeth (contributor for DuckTales, Power Rangers, X-Men, and others).
TECH SPECS:
- Episodic Gameplay: The story and gameplay of Saturday Morning RPG takes place across several episodes, each of which tells a complete self-contained story. Players can play any episode in any order, at any time! All of your stats and items carry between episodes. It’s a unique spin on the tried and true New Game Plus mode. On top of that, small decisions made in some episodes will carry forth into others – adding a layer of replay to each episode. Five episodes are included!
- Active Turn-Based Combat: Saturday Morning RPG draws quite a bit of inspiration from games like Nintendo’s Paper Mario series. Battles in the game are turn-based, but the player is always participating by actively defending against attacks and completing reflex tests to power up their own assaults.
- Defeat Enemies With Regular Stuff: Marty fights all his battles in the game by channeling magic through everyday objects. Use a pack of striped gum to summon rainbow zebras that trample your foes – or call upon a transforming action figure to morph you into a semi-truck!
- Nostalgia Fueled Everything: Everything in Saturday Morning RPG centers on nostalgia. Marty receives his magical abilities thanks to a certain kind of garish plastic notebook, he can equip scratch ‘n sniff stickers to get statistical boosts, and he’ll traverse worlds inspired by the entire gamut of Saturday morning cartoons.

[h1] Seems like a spoof RPG with many references from the 90s. At least it's better than most RPG maker games, because it's not RPG maker. Soundtrack is decent. Gameplay consist of exploration and lots of battles. Retrowave approved. Sadly, don't have time to finish this one but still I can recommend it to RPG fans. [/h1]8 found this helpful
Actually a really fun game with interesting combat1 found this helpful
+story. surprisingly many worked on it +scenery variety. 2d pixel art and 3d backgrounds blend well +humor is SPOT ON. if you grew up in the 80s-90s that is +zero bugs in my 67h 100% playthrough -using cheat engine's speedhack (like i do to speed up grinding) creates the one game-breaking bug. it causes save crashes and will eventually DELETE your savefile. back up regularly if you use it -story ends on a cliffhanger, but surprisingly it doesn't ruin the game -not a fan of QTE in battles well worth even at full price. i also made a bot that automates some of the grindiest achievements (check the guides)
Incluso si te puede la nostalgia y viviste muchos de los dibujos y películas a los que hace referencia, sigue siendo un juego simple y aburrido.
Fun! Any 90s kids should play this game just for the nostalgia alone. The references made during the character's banter with each other will make you chuckle throughout the entire game. Nothing about this games visuals make it stand out. The gameplay is rather generic. The combat system is straight forward, and simple for an RPG. You can tell the game was made on a budget and the team used what they could to make the best game possible. Saturday Morning RPG nails a key importance some AAA games seem to overlook nowadays. IT'S FUN! This is what everything boils down to in the end. Is the game fun? Yes! This game is a ton of fun. Grab this when it goes on sale. Always remember to protect your Trapper Keeper. All 90s kids know that.
Bland.
