I've seen some gameplay with commentary of it and it actually looks like a lot of fun. It's a creative platformer that reminded me a bit of Sonic mixed with Kameo (various animals with different skills).
They failed on a massive install base (PS4/Xbox1/PC). Goes to show that not all software is "guaranteed sales," when launching on popular platforms.
Sorry for everyone involved, and I hope they land on their feet.
The mechanics were excellent. They just put them into a boring aesthetic, unfortunately.
Mekazoo...Mekazoo...Mekazoo really sounds like one of those titles that’s just out there for comedic use.
Gary Bailey :"Mekazoo is not a terrible game. It shows genuine flashes of fun, and its characters are colourful and cute, but the fact that it repeats the mistakes of much older platformers released two generations ago shows that Mekazoo is a game out of time".
