Microids’ Toki remake, which first launched for Switch in December 2018, is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Mac digitally in Q2 2019, the company announced. A physical edition will also be available for PlayStation 4.

The new versions will add a speedrun mode, a quick save system, and five extra graphic filters.

Is this worth getting? I loved the original but something looks off with this :/

yes but most indie developers do not give a shit about putting effort into games

contraversial opinion. but I will not touch pixel art games. most of them I just wont. they look and feel the same

I had Toki on Amiga. Very nice and tough game. Looking forward physical edition.

It's the other way around. It's the shitty flash-game sprites that take no effort.

Just for a quick clarification when I said flash based, I’m referring to hand-drawn sprites ala castle crashers.

That aside, I would say games like Ori, Rayman Origins/Legends, Hollowknight, wonderboy, cuphead, skullgirl and guacamelee prove that handrawn games can play and feel just as classic as pixelated games.

You're heavily mixing flash style with hand drawn, here.

Oh, I will end you.

(Not a game, but)

Magnificent. Straight up pixel art is way superior to trying to look like a cartoon.
I can't get into games like Rayman Origins.

Nice, I also had an Amiga, but I think I couldn't buy it at the time so I had to skip it. I also remember it for its difficulty (wasted a lot of money in the arcades) so I'm definitely looking forward to that announced quick saving system.

Just makes them seem like cheap newgrounds games from the 2000s.

It's a tenner on Steam at the moment. Worth it if you are a fan, looks lovely, plays just as you remember. Cheap kills and all
