Hi! Today we’re playing Twinkle Star Sprites, a retro fever dream SNK decided to relaunch just to test my reflexes and patience. This game looks all cute and glittery at first, like “aww, magical girls throwing sparkles”, but five seconds in, it’s pure chaos. It’s like Mario Kart if everyone ditched their karts and started firing rainbow death lasers.
You’ve got fireballs, you’ve got counter-attacks, you’ve got screen-filling explosions that make you question whether you’re actually winning or just slowly ascending into another dimension and the best part? You can get totally annihilated by a character who looks like they belong on a third grader’s sticker sheet. Humiliating and yet also adorable.
Grab your snacks, don’t blink, and watch me get turned into sparkling retro rubble.
