I picked up a weird GBA platformer from Hudson and Infogrames called Blender Bros. It reminds me a little bit of a Saturn 2D platformer, mixed with a light Pokemon aspect in your helpers you can take with you (and upgrade).

Never heard of that one, nice find even if only on the esoteric aspect alone.

I was looking through their list last night and I'm like, what even is this? I clearly don't have quite the grasp on the GBA library that I thought. And apparently it was pretty well received, sitting around a 7.3-7.4 score. It's not anything special from what I see, but it's also quite solid and relatively short (which was one of the dings reviewers brought up).

Never heard of it either. The title and cover art seem custom made for people like me to ignore. I don't remember what particular game I had in mind when I suggest this theme. I'll have to take a look at their list myself.

They're a little all over the place which makes it hard for me to narrow down. But yeah I want to give emulating Gate of Thunder another shot soon.
The Neutopia's always looked kind of neat too.

I definitely recommend Neutopia. It clones the original Zelda pretty heavily, but it does so in a much more enjoyable way than Golden Axe Warrior did. This... might be a great time for me to jump into the sequel, actually.
I gave the original a 7.5 a while back, and it's not incredibly long, around 6-7 hours.

Oh, the first DoRemi Fantasy? Is it cool though? It looks like a really weird SMB/SMB2 ripoff of sorts haha. But I'm intrigued.

It's unique. It's cute. It's cruel. I used to get scared in my gut when it was time to jump down the well.

Guess it's not a Dragon Quest well with a treasure chest or friendly slime to talk to. I gotta play it now.
