STRIDER™ / ストライダー飛竜®
Strider stands as a reboot to an old Arcade series by the same name. The game stars Hiryu, the last remaining Strider to be sent on a suicide mission that involves taking down Grandmaster Meio, the iron fisted ruler of Kazakh City and the Earth and avenging the fallen Striders.
The game’s mechanics are pretty simple, like an old school title should. It’s structured very similarly to some older games like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Super Metroid and the such as it has a lot of backtracking as well as you gain new powers to unlock new doors and the such - which may lead to new powers, health upgrades, energy upgrades, kunai upgrades, etc. There’s lots to find in the game.

As a Strider fan, this game was a disappointment.
Compared to other “metroidvania” games, this game is a disappointment.
New and improved review with impressions I wrote up when asked for specifics about why I disliked the game so much.
For the record, I spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 9-10 hours with Strider. It was just enough to get 100% and then delete it from my hard drive immediately.
I can honestly say I will NEVER play that game again. EVER. And here’s a list of reasons why:
(1) There is no variety, in anything. There’s two main types of levels – futuristic cityscape and sewer. Maybe you could count the temple area… maybe… but it reminds me a lot of a blend between the sewer and the city. This makes it feel like you’re never going anywhere.

Time Commando
Wow.
I was only 7 the last time I had ever touched this game, that was all the way back in 2009. I got frustrated with Time Commando because of how difficult it was, never being able to finish the game after already halfway through it and eventually gave up. I ended up losing the disc somehow and when I did decide to give it another try I never found it again nor could I find another copy anywhere else, so I gave up looking and eventually forgot the game even existed.
Then LO AND BEHOLD, 12 years later and I stumble across this game again on Steam. Words cannot express how absolutely THRILLED I was to be able to play Time Commando again!

i own it on CDROM now I own it on SteamROM
if u want the DOSBox to be in windowed mode with higher resolution, you have to go to the steam folder you installed it, like “X:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Time Commando”, find “TC.conf” and change the window resolution to something like “windowresolution=1280x960” then either “fullscreen=false” or just Alt+Enter when it opens

Pro Gymnast
personally i love this game i have spent well over 100 hours and i still play it almost every day. it takes some time to learn the controls and even longer to master. the game is still very early in its development and i know that there is lots of stuff coming in the future like diving and more props to play around with. I would 100% recommend using a gamepad for this game otherwise its going to be very hard to play.

What an amazing game.
I’ve been looking for a gymnastics physics game that allows you to really grind and develop skills/routines. The real game begins when you start playing the user created levels from the workshop. The discord community is great an ultimately is the game of choice for gymnasts and gymnastics fanatics alike. I’ve waited so long for a game like this, and I’m so happy it came.

Ninja Stealth 2
Shitty game with poor controls and where combat is just here to waste your time: it’s always the same without any progression, enemies respawn as soon as you leave a room and return to it, and drop the exact amount of healing needed to survive a fight with them. You gain “EXP” but you never level up, you can’t escape fight but you see the option (always greyed-out). Looks like the author used RPG Maker and didn’t even bother to remove/hide the elements he didn’t use.

Of the ninja Stealth series I enjoyed this one the most! Let me just say I like the RPG maker engine (all 3 use it but this doesn’t chage it a ton). This feels like a short and sweet RPGame! I liked that a lot! Not too cryptic… I didn’t need a walkthrough… I enjoyed it… It was… Dare I say… Fun!
Here are three things I will say to save fellow players some time withut spoiling anytning… Know your binary codes for number up to 10 and check BOTH the trunks and drivers sides of the cars in the parked car room! There are 2 cracked walls… One for each findable charater. One cannot go through both… the game is not broken… Stop trying :) If someone had just told me that my complete time would be at least an hour less!

Ninshi Masuta
Tight controls, smart game design, crisp graphics, and an exciting soundtrack.
This game surprised me. It feels like a retro game, but it has a lot of modern niceties and upgrades. And it’s HARD. That said, it’s fair. I still need to beat it.
For the first game from FVS Games, this is a winner.

Albacete Warrior
A very Spanish game!
It tells a story about a ninja from Albacete with a humorous tone. So the game is full of typical references and jokes from Spain.
The gameplay is a Beat ’Em Up with some Slasher and Platform elements. Overall, the game is fun without getting tedious. However, it has a short duration and is in alpha. The good point is that the team stills working on it and listens to the feedback from the players. So the new episodes will come soon.
And another good point is the local cooperative! So it is a great candidate to play it with a friend because of its price and comic atmosphere.

Green Dragon/グリーンドラゴン
Green Dragon is a side scrolling beat em up featuring 16-Bit Retro graphics and a banging techno sound track.
If you like games similar to streets of rage, final fight and of course Double Dragon you will appreciate this game.
The game is still in early development and its literally only half a level long and prone to bugs like enemies walking up a building, towards the sky out of the player boundary, and also prone to random restarts, but its already showing some awesomeness.
I especially cheered when the game paid a little Amiga homage on boot up, nice touch DEV :)

Please follow United Critics for quality reviews
Good things:
The game is working or at least the first part of the first level that was made so far. The sound and music is also working. Character sprites for one of 2 characters are also working and sprites of one enemy that we meet are also working. There is also 1 weapon you can pick up, 1 food item and 2 items giving points. You can walk and hit with fist or jump or even jump and kick! Pixelated graphic is nice and good looking. The good thing is that you can finish the game and get all 5 achievements right now in under 15 minutes.
