#Shakedown hawaii ps4 tv
It’s more social commentary (“I’ll get you a spit bucket” for when you toss back a gamer energy drink for a TV commercial), and fewer memes (if that bothered you in the first place I thought it actually fit). Watching the oafish lead get thwarted constantly is another treat. In fact, there aren’t a lot of direct references at all, as the creator wanted to have Shakedown stand on its own more than its predecessor. There aren’t entire missions dedicated to Batman villain Joker or myriad pop culture references thrown in your face. Thematically it’s a bit different compared to Retro City Rampage. As always in the video game world, crime pays. As the CEO of an old media-oriented business declares “streaming a fad,” his video rental stores and other over-the-top Blockbuster-esque models are no longer cutting it. Shakedown opens with a different kind of “hero”: an aging, balding, out-of-touch man having a breakdown. Shakedown: Hawaii (3DS, PC, PS4, Switch, Vita ) You can add Provinciano’s follow-up, Shakedown: Hawaii, to that lengthy list of successes above.
There’s Eric Barone of Stardew Valley fame, Celeste‘s Matt Thorson, Bertil Hörberg, and of course, Brian Provinciano, who gave us the GTA-inspired (the original GTA) Retro City Rampage, among many others. We’re in a resplendent era of one-person studios and I couldn’t be happier that those kinds of games are getting attention.
