Description

The Good Old Days for Nintendo Switch is a heartfelt tribute to the golden age of youth, blending the charm of 1980s juvenile films with the pixel-perfect style of retro platformers. Play as Sean, a boy swept into an unforgettable single day in the fictitious city of Arostia, burdened by a heavy debt left by his missing father.

Every moment captures the magic of a childhood adventure! Everywhere you turn, you'll find clever homages and hidden gems, from boss battles inspired by beloved childhood toys to locations that echo classic arcades and playgrounds. Although you start your journey as Sean, the adventure quickly expands.

As you rescue your imprisoned friends, they become playable characters, giving you a unique roster of 4 playable characters, each with their own distinct abilities. Switching between characters is key to mastering the clever gameplay mechanics, unlocking new paths, and expanding your tactical options.

Your main goal is clear, but how you achieve it is entirely up to you. Choose your own path as you explore Arostia—boss battles are optional, and every decision influences how the story unfolds. With a unique circular story structure and multiple endings dynamically affected by your choices, The Good Old Days encourages high replayability and personal storytelling.
