Even the fighters themselves have several Smash Bros. parallels. Each character seems like they will have a unique move set, and if Reptar's presence is any indication, weight will likely factor into their play styles. Additionally, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl has wisely chosen to favor its long history instead of leaning on more recent characters. Powdered Toast Man (from Ren & Stimpy _ ) may seem as obscure as Mr. Game & Watch to many, but his presence shows an interest in Nickelodeon's larger legacy. In fact, the large number of nostalgic characters (and Nigel Thornberry, himself often the subject of millennial memes) makes one wonder if _Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 's target audience is millenni

Following up from the original Override , Super Mech League shifts gears from an alien invasion plot to a more straightforward sports analogy. It's basically like the 2011 film Real Steel if Hugh Jackman was replaced with a still image of a female trainer who talks all about the progress the player is making climbing up the ranks. The "story" mode is a layer of voiced dialogue in the menus that funnels players into online fights. There is a lot of voice work, but all the talking in the world can't make up for the lack of any presentation outside of the giant robot fig

Looking towards the bottom of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 's box art, there are two heads that would appear to be separate characters. In actuality, they are both one whole character, as the art seems to be showing off one of Nickelodeon's stranger creations: CatDog. Cat and Dog are conjoined siblings that face a number of challenges due to their radically different personalities, but they often find some way to work together eventually. It will be very interesting to see how this dynamic translates to Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 's gameplay. Perhaps their elongated body will allow for mechanics similar to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 's Min Min , though this is purely speculat

Unfortunately, not everything works in Speed Brawl . Indeed, a large problem with the game is intrinsically tied to the game's core mechanic of speed. The central focus of the title is to clear waves of enemies as quickly as possible to make it to the end point of each race, and this reliance on going fast means that the title is effectively on time attack mode constantly, but there is sometimes a clash between this and its combat mechan

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 's confirmed characters have already given a lot of fans something to be excited about, and the game's silhouetted box art is only feeding that excitement even more. There are still some characters that aren't very easy to make out, however, so there's really no telling how expansive the game's roster will be. It's clear that developers Ludosity and Fair Play Labs aren't afraid to include faces old and new, so Nickelodeon fans will just have to remain patient until more characters are ready to be announ

One of the most positive elements to come out of the growth of the independent games development scene is the way in which fresh voices are able to take on old concepts. Plenty of small studios have been able to reinvigorate tired genres with fresh mechanics, resulting in such phenomenal games as modern classic Into the Breach . The next game to attempt this kind of bold genre shift is **Speed Brawl

Positioned on the far left side of the box art, it's possible to make out the silhouette of some of the most powerful characters in Nickelodeon history, Avatar Aang and Avatar Korra. Korra's fighting pose and signature hair is the most easily recognizable from the box art, so it's pretty safe to say that she'll be featured in some capacity. Aang is a little more difficult to pin down, but directly below Korra is an outstretched hand with a distinctive sleeve that looks just like Aang's. Putting the pose side by side to other Aang artwork, the silhouette and some of Aang's fight poses look identi

Thankfully, this emphasis on character models helps bring Speed Brawl 's world to life. The game shows players an alternative version of Britain, albeit a very different one from the likes of Another Sight or Not Tonight . Speed Brawl 's plot revolves around an 1880s Britain following the successful defeat of an insect-like Lunar race called the Selenites, and the growth of a new sport called Speed Brawl Stars esports|https://brawlstarsfans.com/. The player is one of the contestants in this vicious game, but everything feels more like American Gladiators than The Hunger Games , with a much more chipper t

Nickelodeon has just announced a new Super Smash Bros. style game, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl , which will feature a deep roster of characters from a whole array of classic and current Nickelodeon shows. For all intents and purposes, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl looks as though it will play just like Super Smash Bros . with each Nickelodeon character boasting their own unique arsenal of attacks and special moves while trying to bump opponents off-st
