Saw this movie on a whim without knowing anything about it. One of the best movies of the year.

Same here. This one, and Spaghettiman

Spaghettiman is the hero we deserve

I think I watched it because of RLM. I wish it had caught on as a meme/cult hit. I should rewatch it.

Had some of the soundtrack creep up through Spotify, there’s some good jams in there. “Playtime is Over” is one I can run pretty far to.

I thought the album cover looked cool then learned there was a movie. I eventually watched that and by the end it was pretty darn good.

Now there’s a metroidvania in the works. I tried the demo and it has an interesting mix of bike navigation and on-foot fighting. Really tough bosses, but pretty fun!
