Kirby on Gameboy always struck me as scumbag. Same with Game Gear’s Shinobi. The later is probably more “forgotten” though.

Kirby is actually a very deep game, on the surface its easy af and you can fly though every level but if you want to 100% it, it gets hard and obscure. Like you gotta look up what to do. Its an auteur driven game

🪓 How Caveman Platformers Are Inexorably Tied to the Scumbag Clique

Caveman platformers are the Scumbag psyche digitized—primitive, appetitive, circular.

They center on consumption and impulse, not achievement: eat, hit, fuck, repeat.

The player enacts the Scumbag loop; momentary satisfaction with no accumulation or learning.

Each game celebrates bodily immediacy: hunger, muscle, libido, idiocy.

Progress is an illusion; the Stone Age persists, just as the Scumbag never ascends class or spirit.

Their humor lies in degradation, their color in futility—a world of meat and noise where thought is extinction.

These games embody the eternal present, a world without language, memory, or transcendence. the Scumbag’s digital cave, flickering with the same stone-age glow of beer signs and CRTs.
