I spent about 15 or 20 minutes playing this browser game and I have no idea what just happened. Dubstep king Skrillex joined forces with Jason Oda to create a sort of 8-bit retro homage.

"Remember blowing the dust out of your NES cartridges when they glitched? This game is all about that from the perspective of the people within the game," Oda said on Facebook. "Skirllex also makes a cameo at the end."

The game has plenty of nods to classic 8-bit titles, specifically The Legend of Zelda. Head over to the official website to try it out for yourself.

That's actually an interesting concept there...

>Dubstep >Skrillex Pick one.

If dubstep is involved, its terrible.

EDIT: All the similarily negative comments about dubstep made me laugh out loud. Well done people.

Dubstep blows

The image on the front page looks like graphics from Sword and Sworcery. Is it by the same development team?

i just imagined the get item theme from Zelda in Skrillex's "dubstep" and it's horrible. Wuub wuub weeb waabb!

F*ck dubsteb. It's just computer farts in different tones.

Wow, that seems pretty cool. I personally like Skrillex. People need to cut it out with the, "I don't like it, so nobody should" attitude. There are things in the world you aren't going to like, people. Grow up and deal with it. Gonna go play some more.
by Cru Hunter Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:03 PM

Not really a fan of dubstep, but the game sounds intriguing. I'll try it out!
by cyruz Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:04 PM

Never Skrillex. Dubstep origins ftw.
by GSWarriorsFan Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:05 PM

This is probably Skrillex's method for getting fratboys to start playing Zelda.

Nothing about this article sounds appealing to me, yet I still clicked on the link. Brb, gonna go rethink my life

People are so ridiculous about their opinions these days. Don't you know you're all just a bunch of ***?
by Kai Atlas Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:13 PM

Why not a folk music indie game? That's what I'd like to see.
by ZERØ Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:14 PM

I'm playing it right now.
by Jeremyx5 Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:18 PM

It's Legit. Don't knock it until you try it

Huh, there is actually a song of his I like on here. The rest I dont really care for.
by Zero Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 05:46 PM

Yeah, I remember those glitches. When I heard the dubsteb, I unplugged my console and tossed it out a window. Turned out it was a pretty big glitch.
