Jason Oda, the same guy who designed the AWESOME AS BALLS Perfect Strangers game I’ve posted about here and here, is back with an even more awesome game, as if that were possible. But there are two prerequisites:
- You must love Zelda
- You must be able to tolerate Skrillex
[Sidebar: Skrillex may be the punchline to every joke about bad musical taste (as well as jokes about bad awesome haircuts), but he’s always welcome on ShezCrafti’s playlists–especially the emergency one I made that just loops “Bangarang” to infinity. It’s amazing how much more enjoyable my morning commute’s been since discovering that song. So fuck all ya’ll Skrillex haters.]
Now what the hell was I talking about? Oh right, this awesome game. The premise is that a piece of dust has gotten into a Zelda cartridge and corrupted the game. No, blowing the cartridge won’t work this time! You must take on the role of Link and battle it out with glitches inside the game world, ridding the kingdom of corruption as Skrillex provides the music. It’s pretty great, actually. The warbled, bendy sounds of Skrillex’s dubstep is the perfect soundtrack for a game about corrupt circuitry. It’s as if “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” was MADE for this.
Check out these screenshots, then do yourself a favor and play the game:
