PseudoZap co-founders Peter Mosur and Konrad Messyasz talk to Game Rant about the various influences that contributed to Bad Boro's design.

Mainstream nostalgia tends to follow a cycle of 20-to-30 years, with creators incorporating elements of media they enjoyed growing up. For example, 1977's Star Wars pulled inspiration from Flash Gordon serials of the 30s and 40s, meanwhile sitcoms of the era like M.A.S.H. and Happy Days were all about the 50s. Recent media like Stranger Things and Thor: Ragnarok are steeped in 80s aesthetics, and plenty of video games over the last few years pull from consoles like the SNES.
