I think the renaissance for games started a lil later than the movies, but also lasted a little bit after with it ending with the end of the PS1 generation (some cross-gen stuff early on with PS2 too).
Games for films that are not in the renaissance like Treasure Planet and Emperors New Groove are stellar in my opinion.
I believe some games for renaissance movies were quite bad, like Pocahontas and Little Mermaid but I haven't played them myself. I tried Beauty and the Beast some time ago and even the controls were quite bad I found the animation and graphic quality quite good.
Aladdin and Lion King were triple-A games back then, and there were also some good Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck games.
That's why I think it started a little later than the start of the renaissance for the movies. Once you get passed some of them awkward early ones the games really hit their stride.
Dude that Aladdin game sucked, I could never get past the flying carpet through the lava stage :(
That was one of my crowning achievements as a youngster.
Picked up Aladdin from blockbuster and was able to beat it in one weekend. I was proud
Skill issue ;p
The game is hard, no doubt about it, but not unbeatable. And overall, it's a quality product
I messed the post title, great
You can edit it
Thanks! I had to come to the computer to edit it, I wasn't able with my phone.
Works on Boost for Lemmy here
You can still edit the title
I like the Hercules game so much, I think it is one of those games that I can "dumbly" replay 😅
