Loving the retro vibe on the Switch these days, with an Arkanoid revisit, more classic Atari games, and now Donut Dodo, something that borrows its cheery palette straight from Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands, plus mechanics (is that a hint of BombJack I see?) and some characters from the best of mid-80s video games.
The game from pixel.games (developer of Sigi: A Fart for Melusina, but what the heck happened to the awesome-looking Plutonium Pirates and Bobby Bombastic?) is published by Flynn's Arcade. It hits the Switch on the 1st of December for just €4.99.
Donut Dodo features a serious classic arcade challenge of timing and dodging as the unfortunate baker Billy Burns races to collect all his donuts before the greedy non-extinct mega-budgie can gobble them all down.
Already out on Steam, Donut Dodo makes a welcome arrival on Switch, and features:
- 5 single-screen levels plus a bonus stage, each with their own distinct mechanics and challenges
- Tight controls (no cheap deaths) for frantic single-player arcade gameplay
- Old-school 4:3 screen with a 16-color palette
- Original chiptune soundtrack from CosmicGem
- Global ranking leaderboards
