Gunslugs: I think I had this game on the Ouya when it was a thing. One of those consoles that lasted like a short fuse. And this game has been ported onto multiple consoles as a digital download. It first was released to cell phones. The 3DS had it in the eshop. Well someone also ported it to the Sega Genesis. Why not?

This is a fast pace run and gun action game that will captivate anyone that loves something like Contra or Metal Slug.
The storyline of Gunslugs follows the adventures of a group of slugs who are attempting to find more information about the mysterious Black Duck army, and what their goals are. The army is waging war, and it's the players job to stop them.

The graphics are very simple, pixelated, blocky, but it is not about the graphics. It is all about the gameplay. The enemy is relentless and they come in like a mob. You have land mines, first aid pickups, ammo, weapons, enemy headquarters to destroy, and a copter that flies in to pick you up out of the mess when the mission is accomplished. And don't forget about the bosses. And I love the word balloons that pop up when the enemy is killed.
This game is a fun romp. It can be addicting....
