Jerry Rice & Nitus' Dog Football - Just Bad Games

[@Dargonhuman]

Not gonna lie, the concept of dino dogs is somewhat intriguing to me, but I also grew up in that weird part of the 90s where an idea like that would have gotten a toy line, comic book, Saturday morning cartoon and an SNES game approved before anyone involved came down off their cocaine high long enough to wonder if it was even a good idea.

[@resentfulshrimp8044]

Then the cartoon gets a reboot in 2010 that is somehow an actual show with a decent plot that generates an internet wave before rotting after 4 seasons

[@ValderCorpOfficial]

Only for it to then be revived in the modern era, toned down completely till its see through, and marketed as a kids show that no one will watch

[@mauriziogiusti1769]

Final nail in the coffin, the 2022 Netflix Woke Version.

[@Dargonhuman]

@TurboGamer No I mean the weird part from around 1992-1995/96. The latter half of the decade was when flannel, earth tones and general depressed ideas became popular.

[@omarreyes7626]

the 80's and 90's had a special power where no matter how batsh*t crazy the idea was they could make it profitable, android cops? you got it, a fat plumber jumping on turtles and gobbing on mushrooms? hell that one became more recognizable than mickey mouse, 10 year olds with no adult supervision enslaving literal monsters and travel whole continents on foot? c'mon its the most lucrative franchise in the world, and so, so many muntant heroes, be it turtles, toads, sharks, dinosaurs and even rats (ok the last ones were technically aliens but still count on my book).

It’s a shame this game turned out to not be that great, cause I kind of love the concepts here. I really like the unique stage shapes and obstacles, and the idea of your teammates being AI animals slowly learning themselves how to navigate the field, with dog AI similar to how Haunting Ground/Demento handles the dog slowly learning throughout the game. If it were programmed and controlled better I could genuinely see it being a fun time.

[@keithbowman7650]

I had a similar thought. This seems like it could be a fun concept. It was just poorly executed in this case.
