Thanks to yesterday, I was able to make another delicious pizza. Cowabunga Collection Update, Turtles is not finished yet. Dotemu and Tribute Games have released a new patch for great side-scrolling action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge.
The toppings are especially delicious with the patch currently available for download on Switch. and very excited about the CRT filter. Ah…
Another big addition in the latest patch is a new arcade mode called Custom Game. Create your own arcade experience by tweaking 11 different settings using dip switches. So if you want to make it a little harder and not refill your ninja power gauge on taunts, you can do that.
One of the best games of the year just got better for free? We take it! Here are the full patch notes for the game: steam page:
