Boy and girl fall in love. So far, how corny? No, there’s a twist in the connection between Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers; before they can go on a date, Scott has to get rid of her seven bad ex-boyfriends. Thus, the ideal framework is created for a seven-stage beat ’em up game inspired by Final Fight, Rival Turf, and River City Ransom.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game, which was released to coincide with the film of the same name, adheres closely to the original graphic novel source material. The novels, which draw extensively from video game culture, have been translated into a magnificent pseudo-retro art form. Chiptune rockers, who supply the audio, precisely capture the mood of the product. In fact, we’ll be especially irate if the soundtrack isn’t given its own independent release.
