We’re in the midst of an unspeakably good couple of months for game releases, even if you ignore the boring corporate ones that we’ll never hear the end of. The downside of such a bounty is there are even more gems getting overlooked than usual, because nobody has the time even when we’re aware of them. Like, for example, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.
It absolutely is the Jet Set Radio tribute it looks like, and it’s a delight even if, like me, you never really liked the originals. Inspired by, rather than tracing over the rail grinding, spraypainting, all-dancing classic. It plays a little smoother, it clocks in shorter, and runs a little faster, but it’s undeniably dancing to the same beat.
