Although I have to admit, I am PUMPED about this game, same as I feel for all Bplus games(proud owner of all of their titles).

I can't help but notice how people flock to Bit Boy!! I'm not here to defend the developers or anything right now, unless someone wishes to bash, but I find it amazing how the current gaming audience will snap up like candy, or at the least, turn attention to anything that seems to be retro. Now I see how this is apparantly a new trend and all, but that guy from Steel Penny games is right, people ONLY like things with a retro feel/style/gameplay.

When this development team INNOVATES a franchise, people will shoot it down within a matter of seconds with instant sayings of "It's random." or "A mess." Have you people even bothered to at least read the instruction manual? If you have and still said no, I'll have to admit, this game isn't for you, and you probably dodged a bullet because this will annoy the crap out of you if you can't grasp the mechanics because they're complex. If you haven't, you're a sheep. A bit hypocritical for me of most to say this, but it fits nevertheless.

Next point, I'm focusing on the attention to Bit Boy!! now. Now, let's say Plattchen and Niki never existed and this was their first project. Wouldn't this game at least provoke at least a LITTLE skepticism in you? More often than not, you'd all be caught in the hype of it all! Why? Let me reiterate my point once more, 'because it's retro, it HAS to be good.' It could be utter shovelware, and I can ASSURE you, it will score no lower than a 4, heck I'm confident, if this game is utter crap, I bet it won't score lower than a 6.

Well my flaming/trolling/*****ing rant is over. Please keep in mind I'm not lumping you all together when I make refrences such as most or you all. Feel free to post any revisions/suggestions you feel neccesary, and some comments to help/hinder/contradict my argument. All input is welcome by me. Thank you for taking your time for reading my message.
