[Review] Cruis’n Blast
Posted on 3 years ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 14, 2021
Developer: Raw Thrills
Publisher: Raw Thrills
It’s genuinely challenging for me to recall the last time I experienced a game that’s as comprehensively absurd – and so confident in embracing said absurdity – as Cruis’n Blast. While delivering arcade-style racing in what’s perhaps its purest, most straightforward form, Cruis’n Blast simultaneously feels like what would happen if an energy drink company hired a group of obnoxious teenage boys to design a video game. It’s ridiculous, over-the-top fun that never takes itself even remotely seriously, and I loved every minute of it.

GameMill, Ludosity, and Fair Play Labs have unveiled Ren & Stimpy as the latest character for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl.
The two are actually a joint character as opposed to playing alone. Joel Nyström, project manager at Ludosity, said that the team “really wanted them to be a duo”, which “allows for some very special moves and playstyles”. Ren & Stimpy can use a variety of moves, including “Beep Beep!” as their Strong Dash, “Keep it together!” as their Light Neutral, and “Log from Blammo!” as their Neutral Special.
