About the Game

Set in an 8-bit universe, The Nerd must save all of gaming from a corrupted monstrosity trying to take over every console in the world! To stop the digital menace, the Nerd must fight through multiple stages harkening back to retro classics and face off against familiar enemies from across the AVGN universe.

History

Following the success of AVGN Adventures, AVGN II: ASSimilation, and AVGN I & II Deluxe, the team at Retroware has partnered with Mega Cat Studios to create a whole new journey featuring the Angry Video Game Nerd. Known for Five Nights at Freddy's: Into the Pit, Mega Cat Studios is an indie developer also specializing in retro, pixel-style games. For Retroware’s part, the studio has released modern retro titles like Prison City and Iron Meat, and is currently developing Toxic Crusaders and The Transylvania Adventures of Simon Quest.
