Designing For | Marx: Kirby's Calamitous Clown -- Designing For Corruption @DesigningFor | Uploaded December 2021 | Updated October 2024, 4 minutes ago.
Designing For is a series which looks at a level in gaming, and analyzes a theme central to that level's design. In this episode, we look at Kirby Super Star and see how its main villain, Marx, remains so memorable and beloved despite his limited screen time and appearances, solely due to his impact on his foil, Kirby!
