    Slowly bringing over some stuff from twitter. This is a rotation of Grit I made for Panzer Paladin. It's not really used in-game (besides for the loading screen), but it served as a model to keep his proportions consistent when animated.

    Precision matters a lot in this game. One bad jump and it's over. The save system, which costs you a weapon, is a strange choice. Still, Panzer Paladin is tough but fun. Fans of early Mega Man will feel right at home #indiegame #indiedev

    Game 190: Panzer Paladin Who doesn't love giant robots? This is a NES-inspired action platformer with great sprite art, engaging combat and a huge variety of weapons to use. For most of the game, you control the robot called Paladin, but can also eject and play as the pilot, Flame.

    Been playing @tributegames.com's Panzer Paladin, a game which – and I swear I didn't know this when I picked it at random from my Steam library – dares to ask the question "What if the cute girl with a fire-themed name inside the mech is herself an android." (The answer is yes.)

    40. Panzer Paladin Awesome one-sitting game: the art style hugely appealed to me, and the pixel animation lives up to it! Levels can get repetitive, but swinging big weapons in a mech is great (especially ones you can draw yourself!) and hoarding tons to sacrifice them constantly is shockingly fun

    Panzer Paladin. Revisiting a game I didn't like on release and... naw, it's good! Jank at times, with mechanics that don't fully mesh well or feel a touch tacked on, but at the end of the day it's pretty dang fun. Wish it did more with the 70s mecha anime aesthetic.

    From my (minimal) research, as a publisher of their own titles, Tributes Game seems to embargo reviews until day of. I looked up the release date and date of reviews of Panzer Paladin and Flinthook and both coincided on the same day. And both are great games. Seems to be a strategy they prefer.

    Panzer Paladin- This game is SO CLOSE to being great. Retro platformer where a cool android girl pilots a mech, going around the world Mega Man style collecting weapons, hopping out in places to explore on foot and swing off things with a whip, great music, rich backgrounds, fantastic boss designs..

    Talked to Tribute Games and they’re aware there’s a problem with Panzer Paladin that can stop the game from booting on Switch 2. They haven’t identified why it’s happening but are looking into it. Apparently airplane mode is a possible workaround, but that’s obviously a handheld-only “solution.”
