Evercade A to Z: Food Fight

The concept of a real-life food fight fills me with absolute disgust; while I do love a good bit of food, as my unfortunate waistline will attest, there’s something about food where, once it leaves the plate and doesn’t go straight into a mouth, it becomes immediately repulsive.

The above is why I will never,Β everΒ find photographs of your baby with chocolate smeared all over their face adorable; rather, they will genuinely make me want to vomit. Thankfully, I have no such issues when playing the Atari 7800 classicΒ Food Fight, since it’s moreΒ RobotronΒ than Little Billy’s First Birthday Party. And it’s one of the most addictive games on theΒ Atari Collection 1Β cartridge for Evercade, too.
