Explodemon has some problems, and it’s by no means a perfect game. Yet, it will appeal to the very audience it aims to please, which are those gamers with old-school sensibilities. Cranking through Explodemon your first time may take you only four hours, and yet it’s the time you spend with the game after completing it that matters most. Mastering each stage, finding all of the collectibles, and earning various Trophies should prove to be a very satisfying experience.

Explodemon combines the retro style of 16-bit platform games and Japanese action titles with the upgradable skills, hidden collectables and clever puzzles from more modern titles. Players use Explodemon's self-destructive nature to combat enemies and fly through the air, all the while solving a huge variety of physics-based puzzles.
Joseph Butler-Hartley looks over the release of Explodemon on Steam for Zero1gaming.com
(CriticalIndieGamer) It has been said many times that imitation is the highest form of flattery. Nearly everything from the 20th century thought to be an original idea was derived from some other work. Homages, remakes, tributes all of these words apply to the same thing, the philosophy that originality is dead and everything is a rehash. Charles Caleb Colton is famous for the phrase “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,” which brings us to Curve Studios' effort, Explodemon.
Awesome! The first trailer I ever saw for it had me enticed. I'll definitely buy it.
The main character looks like a bunch of other characters jumbled together lol
