If you haven’t played Shredder’s revenge would you maybe opt to go with Cosmic Invasion? I used to play Turtles on the arcade and it was very fun but I’d like it in a modern evolution. I asked the other contributor about the graphics. Have you felt that Shredder’s was a bit too pixelated?
I looked Scott Pilgrim and I think that really doesn’t make my heart pump. The aesthetic isn’t very appealing to me and is not nostalgia, because I kind of like the Absolum style. Absolum just look a bit more involving game, and even maybe built for single campaigns.

Yes, if I hadn’t played either and I was going to choose one then I think I might go with Cosmic Invasion. My reasoning is that the developers have had some time to iterate, and the overall experience could potentially be a bit better because of this. As for the pixelation, I really didn’t notice one being substantially better or worse than the other. They both looked great to me. I like Dotemu’s pixel art in general.
Maybe think about what they might be into. In my line of thinking, cosmic invasion will probably have a more general appeal character wise than the turtles. With the turtles you either do like them, or you don’t. If cosmic invasion isn’t quite your thing, at least you have plenty of different characters to choose from and thus more of a chance to find one you like possibly?
A couple of other factors to consider: price = $25(shredder’s revenge) vs $30 (cosmic invasion) review score = Overwhelmingly positive (shredder’s revenge) vs very positive (cosmic invasion)
Yeah, Absolum got great reviews and looks like a great game. I’m not really into roguelikes myself, so I skipped on that one, but it definitely makes me want to consider giving them a second chance though. Lol
