There Was A Caveman
There Was A Caveman is one of literally thousands of 2D retro pixel platformers infesting Steam. Control a caveman and jump around retro pixel platformer levels, avoiding prehistoric animals and making paleontologists shake their head with sorrow at the scientific inaccuracy.
The thing about retro pixel games is that they are meant to appear the same as games in the 1990’s, because this is simple to do and you don’t need to have any artistic talent and you don’t need to hire an artist or anyone competent at computer graphics. That’s why retro pixel games are so popular with indie developers, the developers who weren’t good enough to get hired by game development companies. Sometimes, an indie dev will be so bad at video game graphics that they can’t even get the pixel graphics right, so their game looks even worse than the pixel graphics from the 1990’s that they are ripping off. That is the story behind There Was A Caveman.

Generally speaking this is a derivative platformer with excellent, detailed pixel art work. You have seen everything in it before, but that being said, it covers a wide base of platforming ideas and never overuses any of them.
+High quality pixel artwork with lots of care and work.
+Above average movement options - combining the dash and double-jump means the game can through some interesting platforming at you
+Good variety in enemies and bosses - derivative, but there’s new stuff in nearly every section

Great and ultra cute platformer with even greater difficulty level. Worth the money, because of big amount of content and cutesy.
Gaming journalists: “It’s kinda like Dark Souls of dino games.”

Scoot Kaboom and the Tomb of Doom
I really love the approach of the one giant map! Couple that with a great variety of environmental hazards, clever level design and the cruel but necessary process of learning through death - and you’ve got Scoot Kaboom!
I’m having a great time so far 3
UPDATE:
I’ve now completed it, and what a really wholesome game. Really nice design of the “traps” and as you go deeper into the tomb the combination of several mechanics at once really cause a fun and challenging experience! The ending was fun, and I love how there are a bunch of unlockables, various game modes and accessibility settings if the game is too difficult.

Great old style platformer with a nice gradual ramp up in difficulty. I really love that you can slow down the game for challenging sections if you want to, for as little or as much of the game as you want, and to the speed percentage you want. I’m hugely impressed with this design! It allows you to keep the game challenging to your level so it stays fun and not either a grind, or something you have to give up on.
Different playable characters and game modes add a lot of replayability factor - and the zoom to see the whole game feature is really clever.

Baby Dino Adventures
This is a great platformer reminiscent of the old school ones but with a lot of original twists. And let’s face it, everything is so cute! 🤗

Baby Dino Adventures is a cute 2D platformer in which you control a young baby dinosaur as he collects eggs, destroys crates and makes friends by stomping on their heads. There’s even a vegan option that replaces the collectable steaks by broccoli (HOW CUTE IS THAT!?)
It’s a perfect game for kids (my 5yo daughters loves it!) as well as retro-loving parents who just want to have a great time.
