Man, Tatsujin Techou takes me back—that chunky Game Boy screen, the satisfying click of the D-pad. You start off with this little pixel warrior, and right away, you're jumping over pits and slashing through these weird, floating enemies. The controls are tight, but some of those jumps? Brutal. Took me a few tries to nail the timing.

The music’s got that classic chip-tune energy, all bouncy and slightly frantic when things heat up. And the levels? They throw curveballs at you—one minute you're platforming, the next you're dodging fireballs from some grinning demon face in the background. It’s got that perfect mix of "just one more try" and "how was I supposed to see that coming?"

If you’ve got a soft spot for games that don’t hold your hand, this one’s a blast. Just don’t blame me when you’re muttering at your Game Boy at 2 AM.
