British studio Argonaut Video games made a bunch of memorable video games within the ’90s and early 2000s, chief amongst them the unique Star Fox, a Tremendous Nintendo sport primarily based on The Ren & Stimpy Present and—who can neglect—Croc. It was because of the latter that Argonaut Video games was reopened in 2024 after a 17 yr absence by its founder Jez San, leading to a remaster of the 1997 3D platformer Croc Legend of the Gobbos. Folks appear to love it.
Croc is fairly iconic: if you happen to have been alive within the ’90s and vaguely fascinated about videogames you may recognise his whimsical inexperienced snout and oddly plaintive eyes instantly.

I’m wondering what that would imply? Properly, the accompanying video, which you’ll be able to see within the embed above, does rock a really hi-res Buck Bumble, and a newly hi-res Buck Bumble emblem. I’d hazard a guess they’ll remaster that saggy ‘ol 1998 shooter which, regardless of probably not being groundbreaking, is a win for sport preservation on the very least.
