Coming to PC and Consoles 2024

Explore 6 different levels throughout the Pickles' residence

Collect Reptar coins to unlock the mysterious Reptar door!

Team up with a friend for some two-player co-op fun!

HD version features hand drawn animations to match the cartoon’s style

Players can toggle between 8bit and HD art

This is wild. Its not based on the reboot series either, it's based on the original and the first three seasons at that based on the lack of Dil.

The 8bit graphics looks very similar to the Game Boy Color Rugrats games, particularly Time Travelers.

I'm probably going to try to get an NES cartridge of this from Limited Run Games in addition to a modern copy.

Rugrats was the show I was most obsessed with being a little kid in the early 90’s. Totally down for a fun platformer based on the IP.

Copping the cartridge version ! This is neat!

 

[Holammer]

The 8bit segments really look like Bonk.

Wow I was not expecting the jump in quality to the HD mode

Yeah I'm curious how they can go from a 4:3 play area and seemingly differently scaled and shaped world objects in the 8bit mode to the 16:9 HD mode on the fly.

I remember the newest Dragon Quest had something similar (except in full 3D ofc), I haven't played it so not sure if it was just a 2D on/off toggle or something

man , what a time to be alive, The licensed dreck returns to the nes after 30 years!
pretty wild much like that mcdonalds gbc game

I hope there's a level based on mega diaper babies, it's such an amazing episode and the theme song for it was great.

I mean its got Mr. Tippy and Thorg, I can't imagine they'd pass up on the Mega Diaper Babies. I hope Angelitron is the final boss.

 

[Ozzie666]

Yeah the main character looks like Bonk, so much so I can't unsee it. Love that in 2023 we are getting things like this.

 

[drganon]

They should do a remaster/re-imagination of search for reptar next.

Until Dil showed up...

Until Dill showed up...

Funny enough, I like the first two movies, the problem was that clearly Dill and Kim were created to work for a film and not long term as the former couldn’t talk to anyone so he was basically a lesser Spike (the dog) and the latter didn’t have much characterization beyond becoming Chuckie’s sister. These weren’t an issue for a film, but adding them to the full series messed up the character dynamics IMHO.

 

[Kilau]

Meh, LRG can still piss off.

 

[Drew1440]

Interesting, I loved Search for reptar on the PS1, this sounds like a homage to it.

Meh, LRG can still piss off.

Hopefully they won't fire anyone else for liking a tweet.

I thought there was a joke about Switch being an NES by today’s standards in the thread title.

Lo and behold, it’s an actual NES game. And it looks very, very good!
The music doesn’t sound on par with the graphics, but maybe it’s just a trailer track.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

If i recall too, the original music composer Mark Mothersbaugh (sp) also ended up doing music in the gaming industry after the Rugrats cartoon on games like Spyro, etc....

Reminds me of Robocop. Sometimes a franchise has to become so worthless that there is no hope for it, in order for it to be worked on by a young, hungry and creative team.

 

[KuraiShidosha]

This actually looks really freaking good for what it is. I have fond memories of this show being an 87 baby myself. I look forward to showing my daughter this show in a few years and maybe we can play this game together.

You just unlocked a memory holy shit. I used to have that time travelers game completely forgot about it.

Ok. Take my money you assholes!
