Venture Kid is unquestionably a decent game, a platformer that's entertaining enough if you were curious about it. There are far better retro tributes and original platformers, and Venture Kid never really gets past the "Hey, remember Mega Man" stage of being a good platformer. It's kind of entertaining, but unspectacular.

A lot of love went into Venture Kid. The effort is obvious with the game’s graphics and sound, but as far as gameplay’s concerned, it still needs a few lessons from the Boy in Blue.

The graphics and music are top notch, and the controls are pretty good, though I do wish you can customize the positioning to reduce the spacing between buttons. Still, I recommend giving Venture Kid a try if you’re looking for a classic, Mega Man-like platformer to check out over the weekend.
