IT’S THROWBACK THURSDAY TIME!

MDK is a very fun and challenging video game, released in the mid-90’s by Interplay, developed by Shiny Entertainment, and the rest is history. The musical score done by Tommy Tallarico is great. Played and finished it a few times while I was a teenager on my now dead Windows 98.

Playing as a janitor-turned-hero Kurt Hectic (pictured), donning his high-tech catsuit and armed with his arm machine gun/sniper rifle, this TPS-puzzle game has all you need: food to restore health, power-ups, grenades, “BOOM! HEADSHOTS!”, different ammo for your sniper rifle mode, a Bomber Airstrike mode in some missions, diverse environments, weirdness factor…

Its sequel is also quite fun as well, playing two extra characters: a four-armed robot dog friend and a MacGyvering eccentric scientist who hired said janitor-turned-hero. MDK 2 is developed by BioWare. Yes, BioWare (by then you should know the fate of that developer company).
