Simple arcade game that plays like Popeye. Collect letters, avoid gator and pick up power ups to smack him down. Mostly you repeat loop of 3 different stages. I did not notice any difficulty variations. Game have nice sprites and what is done is well made but it's like repeating same thing over and over again. Make sure to check out official site with some decent comics related to the game. Sounds of arcade cabinet playing and pressing buttons is top notch. However I think there's not enough content to recommend.

Gave this a quick try before bed, played a few rounds and loved it. At only 99 cents you may be skeptical but it's a good arcade game if you like the Popeye and Kangaroo arcades though this is much more like Popeye (just as fun too). Walking around in the room to mess with stuff like the radio you can turn on for music in the room is neat but just a novelty to me.
A really cool aspect beyond just a good arcade game is the well placed spots you can choose to for the camera to be as you play. Walk up to it and click to play like it's a item to pick up. Camera doesn't zoom into it nor transition to the game, just the game on it's screen starts and you now movement is the character instead of camera. You can zoom in your view with a button press and in the options you can select to have it just display the arcade game.
One other really cool option in the settings is webcam for reflection. If you turn that on, it will show you on the arcade machine's screen reflection. Why is that neat? Because it looks like you are in the game standing in front of the machine playing. The way it displays the reflection makes it really look that way and not just a cheap gimmick.
Some settings (such as sound sliders) will be off and you will want to turn those on. You have a image quality slider, bloom to turn off/on and other things so do check settings first. I turned everything on and up 100%. I have a powerful gaming laptop (MSI GE75 Raider with great specs) and while it handled it without issue, right away my fans came on at full blast like I was running a high end resource heavy game. I didn't test turn some things off and lowering quality. I played with an Xbox Elite 2 controller, worked fine. Tested with keyboard and that worked well too.

I bought this game on a whim because it was inexpensive and the anthro characters seemed cute. Upon starting it up and playing it I realized this is basically the arcade game Popeye with slightly modified gameplay. Rather than collecting hearts from Olive Oyl you're collecting paper airplanes, for example. Popeye is replaced with Savvy the otter and Bluto is replaced with Gon' E-Choo Gator (whose real name is a secret spelled out by the paper airplanes you collect).
There are just three levels to the game, just like Popeye, and upon beating them you're sent back to stage one with some of the secret letter revealed to you. The more times you complete the loop of the game the more of the letter you get to read and find out more about Gon' E-Choo Gator.
Now here's where the game gets weird. Gon' E-Choo is actually a webcomic that ran for a whole year a while back. Scenes and events in this game correlate to the comic including the significance of the paper airplanes. Gon' E-Choo Gator receives a letter by way of a paper airplane and although the contents of the letter are not revealed to the reader the letter is profoundly important to the character. The contents of that letter are actually what the paper airplanes in this game spell out. In order to read the full letter you have to complete all 255 levels of the game. I suck at this game so I've never read the full contents sadly.
Overall this is an enjoyable game for the price especially if the whole "ARG" aspect of the game linking to the webcomic interests you. There are secrets to discover in this game that according to the developer few people have figured out. I'm not really sold on the blatant undertones of furry vore in this game because whether it's cartoony or not the developer isn't fooling anyone, lol.

Super fun mini game that can bring you to the past!
you may not like this game but I did. I ate a crocodile.
it's fun in VR too. I ate a crocodile in VR too just thought you wanted to know about that.
Hard and fun! It's perfectly balanced as a hard game that can be enjoyable and a solid replacement for the Popeye game, even better I'd say.
This game and comic is a rip off of the game Popeye and the comic Pogo. All I really got from this game is that the creator really likes feet and vore. If you ever did find this game somewhere out in the wild, it would have GAME OVER burned into the screen because no one in their right mind would play it.
The artwork is nice though.
good game
Amazing presentation & "feel" of an early 80s arcade machine - right down to the CRT display w/ scanlines. The game itself is quite addictive too!
Please play this game! It's a delightful trip to the 80s in a perfect homage to the games of the time ♡
~well that was a waste...
It's a fun little arcade style game with a lovingly created 3D arcade garage/basement.
Worth no more than it's asking price for probably an hour's worth of entertainment. Nice touches all round.
Good Game!
It is Popeye retro arcade game but using anthro cat and crocodile characters featuring vore and friendship.
It's...a simple single screen arcade game, that's about it, and not even one of the better ones, the whole thing just looks bland, the sprites just don't blend in that well and it's really not that exciting a game.
Particularly if you don't own any VR equipment, in which case half the fun is gone and you are stuck with a basic game.
Worst of all, people kept talking about how this was a Popeye clone so i checked some videos out, and yep, it's a clone of a 80's arcade game, only without the awesome license, the game somehow looks less charming and the levels seem more boring.
It's Popeye, only with furries and vore, if that's the kind of thing you are into...well, i am not into judging people, but as for everyone else?
Just stay away from this game, there are better arcade options on Steam out there.
Very nice game
Not fun. Crashed my computer a few times. May have been unrelated but what I did play was a complete waste of time. Don't bother.
So... "Popeye: Furry Edition" basically. Haha I'm kidding. I'm glad this was made and inspired by the Popeye arcade game from 1983 because there really are no other games like that. The power-up tune is catchy and the characters and level design are very much enjoyable.
Now I will say I use "Game Only" mode just because I don't feel that the VR arcade room portion, whatever you wanna call that, is really necessary. We have "New Retro Arcade" on Steam which is already phenomonal in my opinion. But a really cool feature to say the least. I haven't used that webcam "reflection" option yet, but I could imagine that could really make it feel like you're actually there playing a real arcade cabinet.
Overall, this is a fun game. I still love the Popeye arcade game today, and Gon 'E-Choo! is an awesome nostalgic addition to my Steam library.. ^_^
Wonky animation and a convoluted presentation. The VR gimmick is funny for a few seconds if you're one of the 1% who splurged on a VR set, I'd imagine. All the product tie-in stuff was way too...eccentric for me. I guess it's an historical caricature of rednecks eating each other, in that common early-era video game way before everything was middle-aged men with anger management problems shooting at each other all the time. In that way, the scenario resembles something of an abridged Pogo cartoon, only perhaps slightly more legible. If only the animation felt more fluid and the characters didn't flagellate so bizarrely, I'd hoped this uncompromisingly strange title would provide the promised arcade experience. In a way, it does, but you kind of have to dig deep first.

TLDR: Showcase level of depth for what feels like a tech demo of an arcade cabinet. Game inside that cabinet was unengaging.
You are trapped in a small room with the arcade game. There are a few decorative assets but otherwise its locked doors and a small empty room. The arcade game itself feels unsatisfying. It is sort of an atari2600 donkey kong derivative where you have to basically play cat and mouse until you fill up on collectibles. The hitboxes for capture are annoying, and you cannot actually trick jump out of reach and can only evade through pre-existing changes in Z levels. Xbox 360 pad detected and working correctly. As a simulation it is not all that bad audiovisually, the arcade game itself just kind of disappointed rendering the whole experience moot and the game feels a bit like clutter as a result. Xbox 360 pad detected and working correctly.
Purchased this game a while back, for some reason I kept passing it over though I really anticipated this one when it released. Tonight I installed and fired it up, and it instantly just took me back to the old days of playing arcade games in great shape. Being at the age of where arcade halls were disappearing, and now they suddenly retun. I can't help but fall in love with this games. The characters are loveable! The gameplay is simple, funny, smooth, but challenging at the same time. Not only that, but the tunes will get stuck in your head and they are great tunes that are spot on for a modern take of an arcade game! There isn't much to get picky about with this one, as the first person view when the game starts up is cool. You get to look at a few parts of arcade machine, and see some advertisements for the game as its hitting the arcade. you can cancel the first person view in the pause menu for those upset with it. It looks like it may also work well for anyone using VR, so thats another plus if it is. I will surely be putting waaaaaay more time into this one as i await the local arcade to open up in my area... who knows..... maybe I will see this thereeeeeeee? XD
I played it..but why the first person? And this game you need a VR or something, since it's very hard to control and not sure if it's me but my game was VERY slow and had a delay. I can remcommend this to anyone who can play it normally, but as for me sorry I like this but can't even play it.. but it was nice to play it as it was a real arcade game tho. 3/5
Edit: Now am playing this on the deck the game runs fine. 60 fps so I do recommend this game for what it is. 4/5 A 5/5 if I can try this in VR stay turned.
Just an old, lame arcade game.
Prendere spunto dai giochi del passato è una bella idea, ma riproporli tali e quali e addirittura senza nemmeno l'audio è cosa ben peggiore. Che dire; appena avviato mi sembrava un'idea carina, ma dopo averci giocato mi sono pentito di averlo fatto. La monotonia fa da padrona ed il gioco è LENTO, ma LENTO. SCONSIGLIATO.
Voto 2/10
Don't forget to visit the webcomic (yes, there is a comic!) that the game is based on.

Fun arcade game with a semi original premise?
Check.
Small but neat basement to check out arcade parts?
Check.
Gameplay based off vore from the furry fandom, turned into an innocent game?
*pinches a wee bit finger sign*
All in all it's a fun game. Normally I'm not a big fan of old school arcade genre, but this is well crafted experience with someone that knows basic and good arcadedy gameplay. Complete with kill screen and full screen mode. Worth the two bucks it'll cost ya.
Probably the greatest thing from the Furry fandom since Bad Dragon. Uhh...I mean fundraisers.
The VR experience is a nice extra but the core of the game is the old school action platformer (based on a POGO-esque webcomic) that offers a very reminiscent experience to the original Popeye arcade machine of the early 80s. In this regard the gameplay delivers a similar experience with superior and amusing sprite animations.
The game is considerably more forgiving then the original arcade its patterned after though, which might be a drawback for the hardcore arcade rats.
At the paltry base price it's an easy recommendation to old school arcade game fans.
Забавный и интригующий симулятор клуба игровых автоматов, идея весьма хороша! Годно!
I'm using the default Xbox gamepad controller on the CV1, and I can't play this because it's drifting non stop to the left in both it's VR room mode and in it's 2D game mode.
Restarting the computer doesn't fix this.
It might have something to do with requiring a specific xbox controller configuration, but that gamepad has been working fine on it's default settings on the dozens of games I tried so far, so I'm blaming it on this game instead.
As for the game itself the concept is good (you get what you expect), and it's just missing the ability to switch between multiple games to become more then the one shot tech demo that it is.
PS : I can't judge the lag of the single game included, because I can't play it.
Amusing arcade game kinda reminiscent of Burger Time or Arabian but with larger sprites and more animation.
(If you have a small monitor, check in the ESC menu and you can set it to show the playfield full screen.)
Gli sviluppatori volevano creare un gioco capace di ricordare i titoli arcade del NES degli anni '80. Ci sono riusciti, peccato che nel 2016 ci si aspetti qualcosa di più che un gioco lento e monotono in 2D. Riprendere dal passato può essere uno spunto molto interessante se e quando gli elementi "vintage" si uniscono ai concetti più moderni di videogaming, per Gon E-Choo questo non è successo (e non si è nemmeno tentato). Peccato.
Voto: 3/10
I didn't like this game at all!
It's very small as expected but has added pointless content that feels like a silly experiment. Why was VR even added to this game? The only thing I can think of is maybe in the future the developers may make an VR arcade with a bunch of these little arcade machines in the game... maybe. The basement is just pointless.
Anyway, I'll still rate this up because I want to see more furry games on steam. This is a finished game it's just very small and over priced.
Finally I can enjoy vore games in the basement where I belong.
I actually enjoyed this game. Wish their more more arcade games/machines but this was really fun. Thought it was cool when you left the machine the game still went on. 3 stages and collect the paper and avoid the hungry gator
Pros
Tips can be enabled
can zoom in and out from the machine
inspect items
art from the game and the side of the machine is AMAZING
Cons
Needs more arcade games
If you are not old enough to remember the quarter eating, nail-biting, early games at the arcade, you should give this a try.
Just prepare to be FRUSTRATED,
Just like those early arcade games there are only a limited number of levels that repeat over and over again getting pregressively harder and harder(in this case there are three levels).
Just like those old games there is limited mechanics, you don't fight the bad guy you just keep running to avoid him while getting enough keys (in this case paper airplanes) to progress tot he next level.
Just like those old games, you will want to throw your controller across the room when you get 10 levels up just to die(there was a reason those arcade games cotrols were built like a tank).
Just like those old games You will try to get your initials into the top ten list.
The only thing this game is missing compared to those old arcade games is the ability to put "just one more" quarter in to contiue after you die and the absolute frustration of not having another quarter to contiue your streak.
It's a great little game and you must try it if you are an oldie like me and really should consider it if you want to know what the old arcades were like.
TL;DR
This is a great game, but don't expect deeply involved gameplay, just a well done tribute to games of old.
It's a great deal for the price. Give it a try if you want a notstalgic trip back in time.
По виду похожа на Popeye, только музыка здесь не очень и уровней мало. Непонятно, зачем тут сделали такой режим, вместо того, чтобы сразу запускать игру. Герой может ходить по комнате с игровым автоматом и зачем-то брать некоторые вещи и читать их. Сама игра геймплейно взяла почти все фишки Попая, только уровни маленькие, но всё равно приятно, что хоть что-то приблизительно похожее на моряка появилось в стиме.
It's an awesome game. It was birth from nostalgia, good webcomic and arcade cabinets. Simple and challenging same time. I voted up on Greenlight for it, and really happy that it makes way to Store, so i woun't hesitated to buy it. I woun't rate "graphics-and-music-andotherstuff" , game is simply perfect =3
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Bof
Sur le principe c'est pas mal : jeu dans un jeu; certainement immersif en VR (environement réaliste, rajout reflet du joueur).
Tester sans la VR.
Un bon + : le prix !
Rejouabilité : Faible.
Pas de game +; Pas de secret caché.
Graphisme : Très bon.
Envirronement de bonne qualité, Arcade retrogaming de bonne qualité.
Son / Musique : Très Bon
Met dans l'ambiance voulue.
GamePlay : Très Mauvais !
Ca rame / Ca lag comme pas possible que se soit au clavier ou au gamepad.
Ca rend injouable le retro gaming (même en désactivant l'envirronnement.
Scénario : Aucun
On doit finir les niveaux qui se succède.
Je met recommandez-vous : Oui pour le prix bas (2€) et le concept VR bien utilisé.
Mais si le type arcade 80' et contrôle buggé vous rebute , n'achetez pas !
Посчастливилось ли вам поиграть в прошлом веке в году так в 1983 в хитовую игру "Tom vs Genna" на аркадном автомате? Скорее всего нет, так как ввоз этой антисоветской игры в СССР был запрещен, ведь автомат порочил светлый образ Крокодила нашего Гены и являл собой типичный пример идеологического противостояния двух непримеримых соперников времен холодной войны. Так вот в той игре нужно было управляя котом Томом собирать бумажные самолетики, отбиваясь от назойливых пчёл при помощи йо-йо. Самолетики (они же письма) падали с неба и нельзя было допускать их падения в воду. Письма вероятно принадлежали перу Джерри, причем посылал он их, по понятным причинам, уже с небес. По другой версии письма принадлежат Чебурашке, но она не выдерживает никакой критики. Новым антогонистом Тома выступал пресловутый крокодил, олицетворающий Империю Зла, который невозбранно и очень натуралистично поедал кота при всяком удобном случае, проявляя чудеса ловкости и изобретательности на нелегком поприще котоулавливания. Возможность совершить акт возмездия и полакомиться коту крокодилятиной давала книга с надписью PZF (Мелкие Зоологические Факты, МЗФ!), ибо книга - это источник знаний, а мясо крокодила по вкусу напоминает куриное. Это звучит как полный бред, но именно такими бредовыми подчас и были аркадные игры прошлого века. Чего только стоили разноцветные призраки, охотящиеся за куском пиццы. Теперь представьте, что вы, повинуясь модной тенденции, задумали воссоздать у себя в гараже тот самый игровой автомат в масштабе 1:1 и у вас это получилось! Только вот кот теперь не Том, и вообще он не кот, а выдр, да и крокодил не Гена, ну и не крокодил он, а аллигатор, и вообще такого игрового автомата никогда не существовало. Да и не важно это, главное, что ни одна другая пикселястая инди-игра, которых сейчас расплодилось просто немеряно, не передает ту атмосферу аркадности начала восмьидесятых. Не обошлось без модных фишек типа поддержки VR и отражения лица игрока на экран автомата прямо с камеры.
this is only a game for unwilling vore fetishists.
the graphics and codeing are both amazing. but the theme and content are appalling. even to a furry.
the gameplay is very similar to that of a NES game but with graphics of the SNES. but very hard as the AI is unforgiving.
I also got stuck in the wrap around zone outside of the screen while 'dead' and the gator AI couldnt even path to me.
Very fun classic style arcade game.
The vore animations make me hungry
プレイステーション初代の「ナムコミュージアム」と似たアプローチというべきか。
「架空の版権ものレトロゲーム『Gon' E-Choo!』」と、そのゲームが内包された「そのゲーム筐体が置かれたゲーセンのストックルームシミュレータ」。ならびに『Gon' E-Choo!』コミックのアーカイブ閲覧機能という変則的な構造のタイトルになっている。
「この人単にお手軽に疑似レトロゲー作りたかったんだろうな」という初見の印象に反し、自分の世界観を表現する方法としてメタ的にゲームが存在しているという大変作家性の強い作品と言える。
そういうアプローチであるため、グラフィックデザイン・演出的な観点に関しては非常に丁寧に作りこまれている。
美麗なドット絵とそのモーションは最初期の任天堂を思わせる非常に高品質なものとなっていて、ここだけでも価格に見合った魅力があると言ってさしつかえないだろう。
反面、ポパイの劣化コピー的なゲームデザインと柔軟・広範囲・的確すぎる敵からの攻撃、ひたすら画面外ループ部分を出入りして敵を攪乱する単調なゲーム内容、乏しいレベル数とゲームだけの品質で見るならば５０円がいいところの内容と言えるだろう（実際問題、ゲーム性はこのタイトルの価値の1/4も占めてはいないのだ…メタ的には、そのチープさも過去への憧憬を表現する手段にすぎないという面もあるのだから）
…っていうかなんかさ 英語ちゃんと読んでないからなのかもだけど
このゲームはしばしの雰囲気とか絵の感じとか妙に落ち着かない感じがするんだよね…
コミカルなのかレトロなのかホラーチックなのかいまいち雰囲気がつかめない
っていうかさ、君ら２人はあれなの？
ゲイカップルなの？
あとこんだけ徹底的にキャラを強調したタイトルなのに
「二人の名前が何なのか」がまるっきりわかんねえのは本当にどうかしてると思う
どっかに書いてあるのかなあ・・・

When locked into the back room of an run down arcade your only solace is playing a 1983 game known as 'Gon' E-Choo!'. Exploring your cement cage will only result in locked doors and various promotional materials for 'Gon' E-Choo!'. There might be a sub plot about child base diseases wiping out humanity.
The game you play in the game is a simplistic platformer where you collect paper airplanes while avoiding a crocodile trying to eat you. However if you grab the power up on the stage you can turn the tables on old Croc and eat him instead.
Neither the game or the game in the game are interesting enough for more than a few minutes.
Gon' E-Choo! replicates the "feel" of a classic game better than any other modern retro game I've experienced. The others seem too focused on delivering the aesthetic (usually with too many colors) alongside gameplay that conforms to modern videogame expectations: there has to be an overarcing story, a metagame, a save system, character growth, a difficulty curve that gently guides players to credits. Gon' E-Choo! doesn't do any of that. This game only sets out to deliver a new-one-of-those, and absolutely succeeds.
While there's no explicit campaign, the game does give you an overarcing goal: a notepad tells you the game can be broken to the point where someone can play it all day on a single quarter. But the only way to do this is the same way you'd exploit a classic arcade game: by learning the AI patterns to the point where nothing can surprise you. (There is a helpful cheat code, but even when it's used I can only make it to stage 57 or so.) I currently have a text file full of AI notes and stage strategies; it seems like I have it all worked out, I just need to get my reflexes to the point where I can do this in my sleep.
There is a motive for getting as far in as you can, from a this-is-merchandise-for-an-actual-brand standpoint: the webcomic has a cryptic side to it, related to the gator's origin. The comic teases a letter that may hold some answers, but it's only shown the first line so far. The whole thing appears to be in this game, however; it's drip-fed line-by-line with every three stages you complete. But that's only a motivator if you're interested in the lore of a silly furry webcomic (which -- and I'm going to take a wild guess, here -- [i]I bet[/i] most people aren't). The game itself stands on its own.
If there's anything else in this game, I'll update this review -- but for the amount of fun I've had with it so far, I'd absolutely recommend it at $1.99. Get ate!~
The Good:
It's a fun-ish formula, peppy music, and a very interesting hub background.
The game makes you learn without a tutorial, just like the games of Ye Olde Video Gamme Infancee. It's a plus if you dislike handholding tutorials, but a minus if you have a hard time learning as you go.
Otter protagonist. Just, otter.
Cute animations.
Awesome comic strip to read for lore and immersion.
The Bad:
Game tries to pass itself off as a "Wowie, look at us! We're super famous." in its universe when I doubt its ability to have more than a cult following at best.
Gator game too strong???
Absolutely no explanation as to why you're in what appears to be a storeroom. Are you a fan who curates Gon' E-Choo paraphernalia? Are you just some weirdo who walked in and decided it was okay to play this random arcade machine?
The Ugly:
Oh my word, the sensitivity on this is WAY TOO HIGH. I set it to lowest in options and put my DPI on lowest it could go, and I STILL was flying about. Is this because it's a VR-focused game and head movements are supposed to be minimal?
Thankfully, you have the option to skip using the hub entirely and go straight to the game, without any "trappings of reality", but a lot of the magic is misssing when you do that.
The Verdict:
Come on, its got an otter protagonist. How could you NOT play this?
In all seriousness, for its price, it's got decent gameplay, good story, fun music, and a fun level design. A real gem you should consider picking up if you've got $2 to spare. If you invest in the badge it's highly likely you'll make your money back with minimal profit.
Controls are too sensitive and laggy (even with minimum sensitivity).
I just got this in a bundle, gave it a go. I think it's a lot of fun, but that's because I'm an old-school arcade gamer. To me, the £1.59 price mentally comes up as "16 credits at 10p a go" and that doesn't seem like terrible value.
It's a lot like if you took a few early 1980s arcade games and mushed them together - it's mostly like Popeye - you collect falling floaty things before they get to the bottom of the screen while this big angry guy chases you, unless you get the power-up that moves about at the sides of the screen. The animations are very reminiscent of that original game, as well as the mechanics.
The animal theme and the inventiveness of the second level, with the big tree and the way you can jump and springboard from one side of the level to the other remind me of Peter Pack Rat. It is a looooong time since anything made me think of Peter Pack Rat!
And "getting a power-up and eating the bad guy" makes me think of Pac Man. :)
The arcade game is, for some reason, in an arcade machine in a tiny dingy room containing spare arcade parts, flyers for the game, and a tape deck with a piece of music that's like real people recorded the game's theme. I guess it's to add "atmosphere" to the experience, but to me, this just felt kind of lonely and claustrophobic. So I went into the options and made it display the game only.
The graphical style, the font chosen for the text, the music with its authentic sounding bloops and bleeps, and gameplay are all the atmosphere I need. They are very faithful to arcade gaming of that era; I feel that a lot of love has gone into getting the small details right.
The one drawback is that the game has too few levels before it repeats. It's only got 3 levels. I mean, to compare, Mr Do had 8 levels before it repeated, and I think that's a fair number.
So - I would recommend this game, but really only to people who already have fond memories of early 1980s arcade gaming. I don't know if it would hold the attention of anyone else.

The days of yesteryear are far gone, the arcades are nothing but a forgotten dream replaced with barcades and family fun centers, and a game like this (the game itself), would probably never be made for the mainstream.
Is Gon' E-Choo legit? Yes. It's the real deal. And for those who want a title that captures the magic, challenge, and replayability of a mid-80's arcade game, but something new. Here you go.
Feels like Popeye, vaguely reminds me of Mappy, and I would gladly let it eat my quarters any day if I were to see it in real life.
There's Easter Eggs, and everything involved with this title creates a lost world that time forgot, but never really existed.
The levels are fair enough to be playable, but still believably hard to be an 80's arcade title.
For the price, it's fair. On sale, it's a steal.
Give it a spin if you love old school hardcore. You wont be disappointed.
........I have a bad feeling I may get addicted soon.
This game is amazing outsider art and I can only hope it is the first entry in THE GON E CHOO THRILLOGY
you are trapped in a painstakingly detailed back room with no exit and there's a little muzak player and a locked refrigerator and a dead-eyed plush allygator and a kind of sort of eerie journal and you wonder if there's going to be some kind of metagame but there's no metagame, only GON' ECHOO
the last thing you will ever see or hear or feel, GON' ECHOO
beeping booping crawling scratching GON' ECHOO
quick collect all the little paper airplanes maybe that will somehow secure your freedom....?
but no
there is no escape from GON' ECHOO
bask in the unsettlingly smooth and detailed animation of the alligator eating the cat and then the cat turning into Giga Cat and eating the alligator
your last words come what might well be a lifetime later, a hushed death-rattle drowned out by the attract mode of the machine
"gon'......e-choo"

This is a pretty interesting virtual arcade game check it out
Furry Vore Fetish: The Video Game (Uncle Tom Edition)
Thanks to a good friend I am now on some sort of list for owning this.
It's the arcade classic Popeye without the fun and playability.
i have been watching the development for Gon-E-Choo since i heard about it on steam greenlight and was happy when it was put on steam to buy, but is it worth the 2 bucks? (aka 8 games if you take into account of quarter by quarter play)
pros-
-the style of the game is very similar to nintendo's popeye, being you have to collect paper planes to advance to the next stage, use a power up to beat out the gator who is chasing you.etc
-the music is authentic to the arcade games it is trying to emulate, i could definitely put this in a arcade and it would fit right on in.
-the ammount of detail in the arcade parts and how the flyers make my arcade nerd squerm with enjoyment, a really REALLY nice touch to make the game feel more authentic.
cons
-no joystick support, yeah this has controller support but i planned to play this with a usb arcade joystick to get the full experience of playing a arcade machine, but noneless keyboard controls can do.
-(i know a lot of pepole are gonna attack me for this) the vore, now i dont mind vore one bit, im not into it but im surely im not sexually aroused by it. i see this game as a homage to its webcomic and the arcade games of yesteryear, not "oh god furries and kinky crap ima buy this and downvote it" thats not the point i see here, i see someone who made a game to make a tribute to arcade games and the source its referencing...and they did a damn good job at it.
do i recommend this game?
why yes i do, if you can accept that theres anthros and eating in it then go ahead, its worth the 2 bucks and if you get it as a gift, accept it..you might just like it.
Yeah this is pretty much a time machine. Kind of like the Popeye game. Hard to hate on. Buy it.
Now with support for the 0.8 runtime, is somthing im very happy to see. play this togheter with a xbox controller and the oculus rift, this turns out to be a great little game. Hope to see more arcade machines in this one !

This game is a mix of the classic Donkey kong, and popeye arcade game. Some elements taken by both games. Will say It was really nice to see one of my favorite artist having a game out.
If you like classic arcade games like I do you will get your money worth with the price.
Also had to change my review, IF this was a real arcade game it would be a quater muncher, but in a good way. easy and fun game to play, Hard to master.
Интересная, атмосферная инди игра, на 2-3 часа. Поиграть, насладиться, получить карточки, создать значек и по возможности получить красивый фон для профиля стим.
+ Цена, атмосфера, неплохая игра в аркадном автомате на 3 уровня (а так же музыка в ней)
- Ощущал себя конструктором, сидящим в гараже и создавал свой собственный аркадный автомат, но к сожалению такой возможности тут нет.
Для любителей жанра смело можно покупать.
If you're into the idea of a game designed to be played with one hand, your left hand, and that very same game has anthropomorphic animal characters that eat each other in it then this is the game for you.
Alternatively, if you're into a particular fetish but wish that fetish was superimposed over the classic arcade game Popeye to a almost plagiaristic degree then this game is also for you!
Gon' E-Choo is a mostly an arcade styled game with a little bit of first person movement. Apperantly this game is based off of a web comic series about a gator and a otter that's in the style of those old Pogo comics, I've read some of them and they are entertaining. The arcade gameplay plays just like the Popeye Arcade game, collecting trinkets to move to the next level, avoiding a big guy, etc. That's the main highlight of the game and it's good and challenging fun. Not sure what's the deal with the first person movement, aside from interacting with the arcade game, the only thing you can do is just look around and view parts and pieces to the arcade cabinet. But then again it's an early acess game so I can't be too critical, still feels like a finished game. And with its fun arcade throwback and cheep price, I say it's worth it
This game was made by some degenerate furry, with their vore fetish at the forefront, and I thought I could just buy it, trash it in a review and move on, yet it's one of the best, most authentic arcade experiences I've ever had.
[url=http://i.imgur.com/E01TUXx.jpg]I mean look at this.[/url] What the heck am I supposed to say? I can't defend what this comic series is about. I don't know ♥♥♥♥ about it, but it kind of sickens me. However, if I astral project myself away from this and just think of the game as its own thing, well, I'll explain why I like it.
When I first started it, I was confused. "First person perspective? Being able to move around? Why?"
Then it hit me when I was playing: The noise. The atmosphere.
The sound of the joystick, the click of the button. Playing with a 360 controller, I could swear I was playing with an arcade pad. There's no way you can replicate that in an emulated fashion unless you get yourself one, but even then. There's something about staring down into a simulated CRT monitor of an arcade machine that playing it as any other game wouldn't have given you. Arcade machines were something special - like a big bulky advertising box that wants to sell itself to you. (Or maybe a [b]pros[/b][b]titute[/b] comparison is apt here?) Arcade machines were the kind of thing you dreamed of taking home with you, as opposed to some crappy home port no doubt Acclaim had something to do with.
"Gon' E-Choo!" (I kinda don't like that name) is as it says on the tin: A 3 stage "platformer" where you collect letters (The paper kind. Although for awhile I thought they were white hats for some reason) while avoiding a gator and bees. Avoiding the gator is just plain fun, like a primitive stealth game, where obfuscating simple AI patterns feels like you're tricking something - like showing a dog a mirror and it thinks its own reflection is another dog. There's not a whole lot to discuss here besides the sublime, simplistic design, which yes, does take its cues from Popeye - but you know what? I like Popeye, but the game is different enough from it that it's not an outright clone. At worst, I'd call it an extremely well done rom hack that adds new levels, as opposed to how I think of it as an homage to a classic. (It even has similar Thru signs.)
In fact, the game feels very much like a love letter to arcades. If you look around the room you're in, you'll find fictional flyers and the guts/parts of an arcade machine you can examine. There's also a tape player you can blare over the music and sound of the game. (A nice touch is that you can turn off the arcade machines music and just leave the SFX on, which is pretty awesome. Custom music tape mod when?)
So I've gushed about it. Any problems? Well... there is kind of one, but it's not in the way you think. You see, it's the controls. They're far too precise. With a keyboard, the game works as you'd expect, the problem is the Xbox 360 controller. It was never truly precise, it's a good controller that fits a lot of games like a glove, but for Gon E-Choo, I got myself into a few too many pickles I knew I could have prevented if I was using something better. At the same time though, I want to use a controller for this game, cause it's the right kind of game for it.
For minor problems, I guess the side panelling of the arcade machine could be more eye catching. I mean I could be wrong, but how common are arcade machines with black and white comics on the sides of it? Maybe the power up could serve more of a purpose than letting you eat the gator? Maybe a mini game like a lot of later arcade games started adding? I don't know, at this point I'm nitpicking.
I know furries are a punchline, but this more than anything proves to me that a person can have bad taste in fetishes, but they can have supremely excellent taste in video game design. I think a lot of indie devs that think they're "totally like, making retro games, man" could learn a lot from this title. I recommend it.
The Pro's:

+Feels absolutely authentic
+Throwback arcade design that's still fun today
+First person view adds a lot to the immersion
+The price is excellent

The Con's:
[quote]
-Vore... furries... oh god
-360 controller is just too imprecise for such a precise game
[/quote]
This is a cool little game that's worth getting if you have a dk2. The arcade game within the game is pretty challenging as well (those flies must be on roids). I'm not sure why I'm trapped in a creepy basement room and why I have telekinetic powers. Probably for the safety of others. Hopefully this gets explained one day.
Definitely something to have when you want to show off your dk2 to friends.
I got it on sale for .99 but even at 2.00 its worth picking up.
A cute and stylish game with a retro style. The game is simple but challenging and layered. You can interact with different objects to view and things to read. I haven't tried it in VR but from what I have seen is more than enough to recommend it.
Normally I DESPISE/flat out refuse to buy early access (Thanks Tim ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Schaffer ..go sit on it and spin you bleeding spoiled useless ♥♥♥♥ holster !) but to be honest I made an exception for this game because the arcade game aspect of it is pretty much 100% complete and anything else is just a "cherry on top"
Keeping it short : do you like The original Nintendo arcade Popeye , Donkey Kong as well as other single screen action/ platformers of the early to mid 80"s ?
If so Just pick this up already ! yes I know my time on this is low..that's because I am still learning it and I'll admit I initially SUCK at "quarter eaters" like these but with time comes practice and I eventually get better. and the 3 levels are not he hardest arcade style game out there.. I do kinda want to finish the letter ( each paper airplane you pick up has one letter of the written note on it with a break to read what you have collected every 3 levels.) so NO BLOODY SPOILERS!
Plays exacty like Popeye (not Donkey Kong Jr). Love it. The hearts are replaced with paper airplanes, the sea hags' cans are replaced with bees, and Popeye and Bluto are replaced by a cat and a gator. Even the trampoline is recreated here, and this really feels like a classic arcade game, right down to the sound effects and music.
Man, I love this game! I remember playing Popeye on my friend's old Atari... Or maybe it was the Colecovision? Okay, I don't really remember the game all that well but I remember loving it.
What's not to love? You've got gators chasing you wanting to eat you, mysterious garage of wonders and old motherboards, and 50s style comics on a nearby table. It's a fun three-level game with an ever-increasing difficulty and an ending nobody has seen yet. That's right, you can be the first to see a kill-screen ending before EVERYONE ELSE. You'll get street cred. If you have to choose between 1 game featuring gators this year and you don't want to play Bayou Billy for the billionth time, get this game.
If this game has any problems is that the first level can be somewhat difficult for beginners. And I had a few other gripes, but with the game's newest patches a lot of the problems have been fixed. It's a game that's easy to pick up, difficult to master, and very fun and goofy.
Tl;dr version:
Gators. That is all. 19.45/10
Pretty much only furries bought this
So I did
10/10 buy if you want to see some gator on otter vore action
rrerr
Sheesh... I think I liked this game better WHEN IT WAS CALLED POPEYE! This isn't just inspired by the Popeye arcade game by Nintendo, this is a blantant ripoff of the Popeye arcade game. I mean, it's pretty much the exact same game except with different characters and a vore fetish. But the gameplay is the exact same, the characters' attack patterns and animations are all pretty much the same. This is such a blantant copy I'll be amazed if the author doesn't get a Cease and Desist order.
The only positive I can say is at least it's $2.
Those with a voracious appetite for classic arcade games will eat this up, but others might find it a bit hard to swallow. If you're hungry for some old-school quarter-munching action, this game costs less than a bite to eat and is something you can sink your teeth into, so it'll give you something to chew on for a while.
Okay, I've played a couple of games, and looked around the back room, and read through the tumblr archives of the comic to the beginning, for good measure.
My initial opinion of the game itself is that it plays a great deal like Nintendo's "Popeye" from 1980. You pick up paper airplanes while running from the gator and killing flies with your yoyo, and once per life you can pick up the power-up comic book(?) and devour him instead. Picking up all the airplanes lets you advance to the next lavel.
The back room in which the game is situated is an interesting device in itself. It's a dirty back room that looks like a workshop, given the bins of parts and pile of speakers. I'm wondering if there's eventually going to be an easter egg that lets you open that door and see what's beyond. Perhaps something having to do with the letters that appear when you retrieve each airplane.
Overall, worth a look for $2, and it'll be interesting to see what'll be coming in the future.
This game will Kick your Tailbutt if you aren't careful!
You Otter Be up to the task!
Dis game Gon'E'Choo're Quarters!
....I'm out of puns.
Admittedly a very strange experience; while many games are emulating the old "Retro" style these days, Gon takes it one step further by emulating the experience of playing with the device you're playing the game with, if that makes sense? It's not a very long game, but this isn't much of a gripe, as most games were similar back in the day. The real fun comes from the challenge and addictive high-score chasing.
That and the vorephiliacs amongst us will probably have a blast too. Either way, a nice little aside, give it a try :)
Pretty much like any other arcade game. As in, the mechanics are simple, you can get caught off-guard easily, there's a good bit of challenge as your pursuant gets faster and pauses for less time before grabbing for you, and if you know how the mechanics all work then you can try to pull off risky manuevers or just game the system and all that. Not to mention, besides the game, there's the whole arcade-cabinet-in-basement/garage environment where you're actually looking at the screen, hearing the music in that close environment through speakers, click of the joystick and buttons and all?
At any rate, for 2 bucks it's not bad. It's simple, the levels repeat (with growing difficulty), and the gameplay isn't hard to pick up, but grows challenging over time. I come back to it fairly often, mainly to give it another go and get farther, and also because I want to beat my friends' high scores because we're one-upping each other. So yeah, I think it's a fun little game.
By the way I should throw this disclaimer on here, I was the one who made the bleep bloop sounds and music, yeah. I didn't have anything to do with the gameplay or art or deciding mechanics or anything, though, I just supplied noises. I do legitimately think the game's decent, though, but yeah just putting that bit of transparency out there in case people think I'm reviewing my own product or something.
Must-buy for DK2 owners. The game itself is charming, frustrating and fun, and having VR support makes it feel like you're actually in front of the cabinet. For two bucks, I may just pick it up and gift to a friend of mine (also a DK2 owner). Give it a try!
I consider myself a normal person, but I would totally lick that otterboy's feet.
I love this game. It reminds me a lot of the old timey Popeye game, which was a whole lot of fun back in the day. It does a great job of emulating all the features of an actual arcade cabinet, too, which is really neat. I feel like I could play this over and over and never really get tired of it, which is one of the major draws to retro games.
Now if I could only make it passed level 2-2...:[
if you look to the side, scroll out, and look forward again you can play the game across the room with your telekinesis powers
The #1 furry vore simulator on Steam. Probably also the only furry vore simulator on Steam. At least i hope so. Features include furries, vore, and a creepy basement.
RECOMMENDED!
This is a fun and charming game that fans of old early-to-mid 1980s cabinet arcade games are definitely going to like. I don't remember playing a modern retro-style game that has transported me back to my quarter-crazy youth so enjoyably and thoroughly.
You play the role of a derby-wearing pink cat who is trying to collect letters in the form of paper airplanes that soar back an forth to the bottom of the screen. While running around collecting them, there is an alligator trying to eat the cat. Also, there is a power up that allows you to turn the tables and eat the alligator. This simple premise, like a good arcade game, is addictive. A lot of quarters would have been pumped into this back in the day.
The sound is spot on for the chips that were used at that time and the music is a happy little jingle. The characters are unique yet familiar and could have had their own Saturday morning cartoon. The CRT screen emulation, animations, and graphics are straight out of a time-warp. For me, it really captures the atmosphere of playing an old cabinet game and it offers the fun of learning to master a new machine.
Some might not like the simplicity and repitition of a game with only three different screens (a treehouse in the woods, a backyard and a shopping mall) or appreciate the charm, but I think those people are going to be few and far between. And even at full price you can own it for less than 8 plays on a real quarter-operated game.
NOTE: The developer is very active in the forums and has already made some excellent updates since release.
A great game and has a spot on feel to classic arcade games. It also has the best CRT emulation I have ever seen! Can't wait for VR support. This is retro gaming done right!
Heheh, I'm a vore fan, so of course I'd like this!
But that's not all the reason I like it. Pretty challenging and I liked how it felt like I was playing an arcade machine.
This is a good way to keep the old alive, and I for one love it.
Keep up the good work and I hope you make more. :)
If this isn't made into an actual arcade cabinet there is no justice in the world.
Very fun and quite difficult. The music and graphics are spot on for an 80's arcade game. I'm also really digging the overall look of the arcade cabinet. Lots of nice little touches too, like the cabinet joystick moving along with the player's actions. I kinda geeked out when I saw scan lines on the game screen, simulating an old CRT monitor.
A treat for fans of arcade classics and totally worth the asking price.
10/10 will try to not get eaten again.
*Early Access Review*
A fun and challenging platformer, that's reminiscent of old school arcade games.
Definetly worth the price and a good game for any library.
