Hidden Gem: Samurai Kid


The very first hidden gem I'd like to uncover is a puzzle-based action platformer that was released for Game Boy Color in Japan only. It is known as Samurai Kid. It truly is a fine title with solid gameplay mechanics, clever level design, decent graphics, and an addictive soundtrack.

The main mechanic of the game is to utilize three different weapons to clear large levels that are chock-full of things to explore and enemies to defeat. Combined with Samurai Kid's move set, this is perhaps one of the best and versatile puzzle platformers I've ever played.

I hope that this gets a translation one day!

I'd like to finish this sometime between now and April of 2026. As a special request for all Sonic fans that are following the game, spread the word about it and 30th anniversary of Monster World IV coming on April 1st! Much appreciated!

A second version of an Asha chibi for the 30th anniversary of Monster World 4. This game and character mean so much to me and I wouldn't be the creator I am today without it!

Asha in the "Sonic the Fighters" style that I commissioned from MEGAF0XX on twitter. Monster World 4 celebrated its 30th anniversary this year, so it felt right to go all out and show her some love!

The artist was a joy to work with from start to finish!

The "Game of the Month" discount for Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World ends on October 9th! It would mean a lot if we could have some assistance as sales of recent entries will help develop new ones. Thanks!

A classic Sonic for your timeline! I love the opening/ending animations in Sonic CD since they do a stellar job representing his movement, wits and attitude. This one was a lot of fun!
