Go! Go! PogoGirl is out on Mega Drive!

Yes, it has finally happened - PogoGirl is where she belongs. On the Sega Mega Drive!

Since the game was a love letter to 16-bit platformers, it only made sense to port the game to the Mega Drive eventually. Unfortunately, I lacked the skills to even consider doing it myself…and that’s when Spacepants Games came into play. Dude’s an oldschool programmer from the old days, when coding Mega Drive games wasn’t just a retro hobby, and, well… then he ported Go! Go! PogoGirl to Mega Drive. And by ported, I mean re-created it from scratch in assembly code. Because that’s just how he rolls.

And the best part? You can buy the game now!

The Retro Room has kindly taken care of producing physical copies of the game, complete with box and a manual. You can grab your copy below:

However, if you want to be more contemporary and grab the rom digitally, you can do so directly on itch.io!

Thanks to SpacepantsGames and The Retro Room for their support in bringing one of my childhood dreams to fruition: Releasing my own Mega Drive game. And while I didn’t actually code the game (well, this version at least) it’s close enough for now.

And finally, thank you for supporting both me and the retro gaming community! Never stop playing, and party on!
