Tribute Games, the studio most known for its work on the beat-em-up title 'Streets of Rage 4,' released a new retro-style game named 'TMNT: Shredder's Revenge.' This is a side-scrolling beat-em-up title where players assume the role of the popular Ninja Turtles, as well as supporting characters such as Splinter. Throughout the game, players will work to topple the popular villains of the TMNT universe, such as Shredder and Krang.
TMNT: Shredder's Revenge has beautiful arcade-style animations with smooth pixel art and fluent attack visuals that recapture the glory of playing a fighting game in an arcade in the 1980s, but in the modern era. The game can be played solo or in co-op mode with friends. When playing with friends, it is important to share the items in the game, which includes foods such as pizza and throwables such as trash cans.
