Summary Life of Pixel is a platformer for Steam that has a dual purpose. On one hand, you have a nice little platformer boasting over 100 levels with simple controls, and sometimes challenging gameplay as you control a little green block face thingy (as best as I can describe it) as you dodge enemies, jump over pitfalls, make sure not to get hit by spikes, and collect jewels in a standard fare that you would expect from an old school platformer. It’s simple basically. And on that alone, just a basic (but sometimes challenging) game. Luckily, Life of Pixel has an ace up its sleeve. Its other purpose is to feed you a heaping dosage of gaming history, as each of the worlds is themed after a different classic gaming console or computer. You’ll be playing levels with graphics, sound effects and music like they were pulled from your childhood. Pixel includes a load of systems ranging from the
A nostalgic, colorful, simple platformer, Life of Pixel explores the evolution of consoles from cassettes to the 16 bit era. Life of Pixel is a fun, well constructed, lighthearted love letter for a lengthy history of gaming, demonstrating the evolution of graphics and mechanics for a basic one dimensional platformer. The game spans 13 consoles, beginning with the ZX81 and Atari 2600, and ending with the NES, SNES, Sega Master System, and Sega Genesis. You are a square with a face named Pixel who has befriended an elderly, bespectacled, mustachioed, professorial pixel with a face who often shows up to give hints. Your friendship is based on your interest in the evolution of game systems over time and his knowledge of each, conveniently and informatively passed on to the player when selecting a stage from the appropriate system. Each system has 8 stages, and to progress to the next stage
Nice platformer that lets you "play through video gaming history". Nostalgia value for the older gamers :) Dev is very active in the forums, provides frequent updates, and extremely responsive to suggestions. Keep in mind that the game isn't for the easily frustrated - there are no checkpoints in the levels, and it is pretty easy to die - 2 hits from enemies, 1 hit from environmental hazards. I'll edit the review to be more in depth if I ever manage to actually beat the game.
Super Life of Pixel is a nostalgia-filled trip down memory lane that had me grinning from ear to ear. This pixel-perfect gem transported me back to the good old days of gaming, with lovingly recreated retro themes from different gaming eras. Steam Deck gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f399544D1k4 From the 8-bit chiptunes to the charmingly blocky graphics, this game nailed the essence of classic gaming. It was like I had dusted off my old consoles and hooked them up to a time machine. The attention to detail is mind-blowing, and the gameplay is just as addictive as the classics it pays homage to. Super Life of Pixel deserves a standing ovation for bringing back the best of gaming history while adding its own unique twists. Trust me, this game will pixelate your heart!
This game claims to be about following a single character through a number of console systems. You would think that emulating the game and art styles would be important then. While superficially and at a single glance the art styles change they do not actually conform to limitations present by each system. Instead every console plays exactly the same other than a new coat of paint. If you are attracted to the idea of playing games through the ages this is not for you. If you want a bog standard platformer that doesn't seem to actually understand the appeal of its own themes then go nuts.
The overall concept is great Gameplay is simple yet fun The soundtrack is awesome! Nostalgic I actually like that there are no checkpoints & that spikes/water can instantly kill you - That's what makes the game challenging. I can see why it may be frustrating to some but it's a true representation of gaming on older systems. If you can accept that you are going to die alot, I would recommend this game.
