ColecoVision Flashback Direct Download
All the joy of the 80s in one ColecoVision® Flashback® pack! Access an impressive selection of 40 classic ColecoVision favorites, including Bump ‘n’ Jump™, Jumpman Junior™, Pepper II™, Space Panic™, Venture™, and Zaxxon™. It’s true arcade excitement from a legendary 80s console. The retro style interface and authentic gameplay will transport you back in time for hours of modern day fun. Want more? ColecoVision Flashback not only plays, looks, and sounds just like the original, but you can now also Save, Resume, Replay, and Rewind the action at any time! A nice collection of games from the ColecoVision, many of which I still own the cartridges of as it was my first console I ever got. Absolutely love Pepper II, as far as I’m concerned that’s a maze game that totally kills Pac-Man in concept, scale, and fun factor.
That being said, half of the real ColecoVision experience is playing these games with those original bastard joysticks from hell and not having them readily available in USB form takes away from it you’re looking for authenticity in every facet of this. Blow up your friends and foes in multiplayer or participate in the race for the top spot on the international leaderboards. Both of them greatly appeal to my competitive nature, and I spent hours improving my skills on each map until I made the top ten in most of them. A sublime sense of achievement. Excellent level design with sufficient verticality and secrets; upgradable abilities in form of a dash and double jump expand the flexibility. Weapon feedback and headshots feel crisp, the variety of enemy combinations keeps up the challenge. Metal soundtrack enriches the atmosphere. And I really appreciate the voluptuous display of gore, you can wallpaper whole rooms with the liquids of your opponents.

I appreciate that secrets aren’t super obtuse to find. Some are just from being diligent to look in various spots. Some are foreshadowed behind glass or bars or the distance and you can figure out how to get them by the end of the level. Even though it may feel easy to find them all I still end up knowing there are more when I reach the level recap, and I imagine if I replay later it will be nice to replay the levels. Man this game is awesome. One of the best modern “retro” shooters I’ve ever played. It captures everything I loved about the glory days of the 90’s shooter genre and adds some modern touches. The graphical effects are really well done, the action is frantic and fast paced. The level design is top notch and there are many secrets to find and unlock.
