My Friend Pedro

doido... rápido... divertido... estranho... 7/10

Great game. It's like Hotline Miami + Max Payne with a bit of puzzle platformer

Apesar de ser um jogo curto é engraçado e divertido!!!

"My Friend Pedro" joins works such as "The Illiad" and "Catcher in the Rye" as a cultural cornerstone of humanity. The game, while simplistic to a passerby, contains an ocean of nuance and themes that the average consumer may never fully grasp. Our protagonist is nameless, he is a vehicle for the modern player - or perhaps representative humanity as a whole. He knows nothing except what is relayed to him by a flying, phallic, yellow fruit known as 'Pedro'. Not only is this banana's name Pedro, but right away we know that he is 'our friend'. Perhaps by this, the creator intended a meta-commentary on how complacent we are with modern media. This 'Pedro' guides the player in the wholesale slaughter of every other humanoid character in this game. Guns akimbo gradually escalating into a full armory that would make an FPS protagonist blush. The enemies, an obvious stand in for the universe's force of entropy, attempt to kill the player throughout various 'levels'. The player must utilize guns, tables, and frying pans (the table representing disestablishmentarianism and the pan representing the power of the combined proletariat) to defeat these agents of false order. Pedro hovers over the player, encouraging this - yet never partaking. He is but another voice that the player must learn to discern. The player is a force of nature, constantly moving and blasting away like tornado full of buzzsaws. It represents the chaos each of us carries within ourselves and the paths we can take to make it serve the greater good - our greater good. I laughed, I wept, I entered rooms I knew not exist in my memory palace - "My Friend Pedro" made me a better gamer, better scholar, and better lover. It's criminal that this game is not hanging in the Louvre.

очень интересная и динамичная игра. Финал очень сильно удивил, и не ожидал такой сюжетный переворот. Всем советую поиграть и пройти, не заскучаете, каждые новые главы новые пушки и техники.
