Yo! Noid Was Ahead of its Time (Complete)

Game Description

Yo! Noid Was Ahead of its Time is an indie adventure platformer game.

You play as the Noid venturing The Void. (Really?)

It’s a fan-made sequel that continues the story of the Noid back on the PlayStation. The game plays like Banjo Kazooie in a 3D environment as you traverse colorful landscapes. The game also throws puzzles at you for you to solve. They’re easy, but the camera could use some work. It actually makes the puzzles a lot more difficult than they are because you can’t see far enough or wide enough.

But it’s not that bad.

The objective is to find your lost yo-yo. When you recover it, you can use it. But here’s where the camera gets kind of stuttery and makes the game difficult to play. I’m not sure if it was intentional, but it does take getting used to.

The game offers a pretty fun and challenging puzzle adventure with plenty of 3D platforming. For an indie platformer, it’s a blast.

The levels are difficult and you’ll need to try and try again. But that’s what happens with these older retro platformers.

Like they say, it’s “NES hard.” Those were the good ol’ days.

The graphics aren’t that impressive, but they’re true 3D and not 2.5D. The sound is also not bad and does the job. There’s also music and some smooth animations. The soundtrack is pretty awesome.

You could definitely see this game on a PlayStation or N64. It’ll remind you of classics like Mario 64.

Grab a slice of pizza and sit down.
