Kickstarter has been a real boon for retro gaming recently, hasnāt it? First General Chaos, then River City Ransom: Underground, and now a retro-inspired platformer that was kickstarted almost a year ago releases. Itās a regular wellspring of nostalgia.

You may not remember playing as a potato, though, which is O.K. because you probably havenāt yet. The release of Spudās Quest for PC aims to change that today.
Spudās Quest is a self-described zeldoidvania tribute game starring Spud, a blue, ambulatory potato, and his sidekick Prince Charming, a frog in search of a cure . Just like the old school adventure games, we already know how to cure Prince Charming (collect the four ancient elemental essences, clearly), and all thatās left is the trip. The game also takes from the the old Codemasterās Dizzy series, and pulls from Roman, Greek, Norse, and Mayan mythology to let that antiquity set in.
If you pick up Spudās Quest from the gameās site for Ā£5.00, and you like it, you should also hop over to its Steam Greenlight page and share your opinion there. If nothing else, at least the humble potato is starting to get the attention that root vegetables deserve, right?
