Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures

Play as the Angry Video Game Nerd in a side-scrolling adventure inspired by his online series. The stages draw on retro game conventions and feature comic references, cameos, and crude humor.

Run, jump, and shoot your way through enemies, bosses, moving obstacles, and lethal traps. The Nerd can fire in eight directions, and each stage tests timing and careful movement.

The adventure spans ten levels, with checkpoints marking progress. You can also find secrets, use power-ups, and play as additional characters with different abilities.

Supplied reviews often enjoy the game’s AVGN references and irreverent humor, alongside its demanding retro-style platforming. Some players find the challenge satisfying, especially with responsive controls and checkpoints, while others describe the death traps and later sections as frustrating. Several also praise the soundtrack.
