CheatCC says, "There's no denying there's something inherently special about the Bit.Trip series. With Bit.Trip Beat, Gaijin Games introduced an experience that mixed retro-gaming style with musicality in a way that bordered on spiritual. Commander Video, the series' pixel hero, now makes his triumphant return in the developer's fourth (and likely final) installment of the saga, and I'm delighted to report that his journey ends with a bang."
With the inclusion of the original game and a set of new mechanics that slot in naturally, Bit.Trip Rerunner is a stellar example of a remake.
Bit Cultures writer Conner plays through his Steam library in alphabetical order, writes a brief summary of his experience on each game, and then gives them his own personal rating. Here's week 9 of Steam A to Z!
This week's Humble Weekly Bundle looks like a must-buy. You can pay what you want for Shank 2, Blocks That Matter, and BIT.TRIP RUNNER. Paying $6 or more gets you Runner 2, Fly'n, and Megabyte Punch. If you're willing to spend $10 or more, you can get King Arthur's Gold and Mark of the Ninja: Special Edition.
