Steel Assault is an action-packed platformer that mimics old-school game design. It has interesting, difficult stages for players to learn through trial and error until they’ve mastered enemy positioning, spacing, movement, and boss patterns. The game perfectly delivers what it sets out to do and makes you feel like you just found an old arcade title that you haven’t played yet. Intriguingly, and on a bit of a side note, the game is published by Tribute Games — the team currently working on the much-anticipated Shredder’s Revenge (a co-op Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles beat ’em up.)
