Rad Rodgers seems to be a good combination of platformer and shooter. Unfortunately it lacks challenging levels and double jump, and hats are present, but of no consequence. It's worth to hunt for retail version of the game. It will be a gem.

All in all, Rad Rodgers is one solid platformer from Slipgate Studios. Sure it's not reinventing anything major in the genre, but knows how to merge the best in platforming games from our past and give it a modern approach.
Rad Rodgers is a decent 2.5D platformer which brings together various aspects of all the old 2D platformers we love and slapped on a modern look. The writing is funny, the story is entertaining and the references thrown in here are sure to make everyone who gets them smile.
There's a lot to like about Rad Rodgers as it's a well-made platforming shooter fueled by '90s nostalgia.
Fun & classic, Rad Rodgers strickes back with the same and interesting platforming videogame and several addings that make him a great product for almost all audiences in console. A good product, perfect for nostalgic-platforming addicts

It's genuinely difficult to not be charmed by the foul-mouthed shenanigans of Rad Rodgers. The game somehow manages to morph extremely dated design ideals into a form that is palatable to the modern console crowd. If you can get past the constant barrage of unnecessary vulgarity, you will find the muted luster of something special hiding beneath. Here's to hoping that Slipgate Studios gets the opprotunity to make something a bit more substantial the next time around.
Rad Rodgers is a game with its ups and downs. It is entertaining, even though it does not take too much time to beat.

Rad Rodgers is a familiar yet satisfying platformer that doesn't always hit all the high notes, but it does so often enough to feel like a hit for anyone looking for a reminder of the way things were when it comes to these kinds of games.
Rad Rodgers: World One could be a much better title, if the developer would not waste the potential. It's not bad, though.

Rad Rodgers is a simple platform and action game that aims to please those who miss the 90s. It has simple mechanics and non-linear stages. The biggest problems is the layout of the stages, that can confuse the player at certain points. In addition, the enemies and weapons are repetitive.

Rad Rodgers is a love letter to games from an older time, and manages to succeed in delivering a violent and satisfying 2D shooting experience. Unfortunately, unpolished platforming and a short length keep it from being a must play, especially considering the plethora of alternatives out there. The humour may not be for everybody, but for gamers looking for a blast from the past, Rad Rodgers is a rollicking and violent nostalgia trip to a simpler time.
The game has several failures, some quite serious, but it's a game that focused on having fun, and after all it succeeds in it.

If you like 90’s platformers, crude humour and don’t mind something that’s a bit rough around the edges then you will like this title. If your looking for a tight, polished platformer then look elsewhere, this is not your game.
At the end of the day, if you were one of those who loved gaming back in the day, then you’ll enjoy what Rad Rodgers brings. It’s not the best platformer out there, but it’s still fun and will let you kick back with a huge smile on your face. Unfortunately you may begin to find that grin slowly turning to a grimace as the confusion and lack of direction in the latter levels takes hold.
Rad Rodgers offers a great artistic concept in the design of the stages and collectibles it offers, not to mention the presence of two comedians that make the trip more exciting and the world of the 2.5D is designed perfectly and takes advantage of the most prominent elements of this classic games, but on the other hand, the game suffers from Lack of challenges, puzzles, limited artificial intelligence, and only 4 kinds of enemies, plus the Pixelverse puzzles that are of no use at all.

The restless Rad and foul-mouthed Dusty debut on PC with the first episode of a new series. Their adventure is a classic run'n'gun, like the ones we used to play in the '90s. It puts on the plate six levels and an awful boss-fight, mixing platforming and shooting in a very trivial way.

Rad Rodgers struggles to find its groove through most of the game, but it does spark that nostalgia I grew up with. I wanted to love it more than I did, but never actually hated playing the game. There are bright spots when the design or poor writing isn't dragging it down.
The crucial factor to take into account here is the sense of humour. Do you like silly, immature humour that has no respect for the fourth wall? If you don't, the gameplay probably isn't strong enough to maintain your interest, particularly in a crowded genre. If you do however, the gameplay is strong enough to maintain your interest for the length of the game, slightly short though it may be.
Rad Rodgers is a competent 90's run-and-gun platformer revival, despite some frustrating gameplay elements.
