Great PvP game. Fun one to couch play or with people online. Map design looks nice and looking forward to thrashing some friends.

Woo eeh! That hydra mini game is hard but in the way that makes you wanna keep going until you’ve smashed your monitor.

If you’re in for a challenge the single will give it to you in spades, with a thumping techno soundtrack to get you pumped for each attempt.

Versus mode is a fast and wild, reflecting a shot into your opponents face and having them try to block only to realise it’s an unblockable bullet and gasp in horror as their little alien explodes into dust, is something to experience.

Great game, would buy again! (y)

I like ARM. It is a fun game, it wasn’t too easy or too difficult, It was challenging but not frustrating, the controls were easy to learn, music was good, and it’s a good-looking game.

Aeon Must Die!

Aeon Must Die!

I was very excited to play this game. I normally don’t buy based on trailers but the art style got me and I think I’m in a great position to write with just over 5 hours in one sitting playing this game. The price is something you can’t complain about either. Aeon Must Die was not what I was expecting. I knew it was going to look great and I figured it was going to be like Streets of Rage. I got something a bit more tactical which makes the pacing slower but that’s not a bad thing at all for this particular game.

Now Before I start would like to say I don’t play many fighting games so for me this is game is out of my comfort zone, but I must I say I love it….

Fighting is just makes me feel like a badass plain and simple most other fighting games I’ve played never really made me feel like I was good because I couldn’t do their 900-button combo, but this is super simple and so much fun…

And there is skill involved you need to know when to parry or when to doge and then you also need to pay attention to whether you’re going to overheat or gone cold. And probably my favourite part is the fact that I can kick 7 shades of shit out of someone then throw them to the side lines at their friend all while yelling get the fuck off my screen

Dash Hale

Dash Hale

INHALE. SAVE THE WORLD. EXHALE. REPEAT.

Who needs guns or swords when the environment is on their side?

Better still: why not having them all?

Dash Hale is a combat-based runner set in a dynamic, freely rotating world: run faster or slower by changing the ground incline, turn it into a steep slope for sliding or drop to a free fall - bringing your enemies down with you.

Hunt bloodthirsty zombies in a pirate ship, survive rebellious machines in feudal Japan, face hellish demons in the cyberspace and escape giant rotating blades… everywhere. It may not make much sense, but you won’t have time to miss it.

  • Control Matt and the world around him: jump, swap between short and long-range attacks and rotate the world at will;

  • 10 kinds of enemies, 10 corresponding levels - which get mixed at the start of each scene;*

  • Upgrade your weapons and acquire new abilities through your journey;

  • Blood pumping electronic soundtrack;

Radical Heroes: Crimson City Crisis

Radical Heroes: Crimson City Crisis

What is it?

A pixel art beat’em up where you save Crimson City from an invasion.

Pros:

Some of the best looking pixel art

Controls work fine

Eaasy to get into

Plenty of funny references

Cheap

Meh:

Sound could use some more variety (what is in the game is fine, but variety is the spice of life)

Con:

Diffilculty, or rather the lack of it:

While it is fine for a game to start off easy and then gradually tighten the screw like this one does, unfortunately it waits too long to do so.

Upgrades are available pretty early on, making things even easier in the early levels (or playsets as they are called here).

I have to say as a long time gamer, I love this game. It evokes a bit of nostalgia from old NES days and offers some really unique looking aesthetics.

It is early access so there are some occasional bugs and glitches but overall it’s well worth the buy and I want to see where they take things.

It has lots of playable characters that are unlocked through gameplay (as opposed to how other games do this via DLC) which really adds to my fondness for this game! I love finding secrets and unlocking skills/characters.

The Cruise

The Cruise

The game dev was kind enough to share a copy of this game with me so I could write a review. After a few hours of game play I can say it delivers on the description. This game is a space, retro, Galaga style game. My critiques would be that a lot goes on on screen at once and can be a little overwhelming, as well as I would like more in game progression such as power ups while playing, rewarding you for surviving a longer amount of time/making you stronger or healing you over time. I like the class concept and the bosses/mode for 1v1ing bosses. Overall a good game especially for a learning/new game dev. I would recommend getting the game for some fun and over just the fact that the main dev/creator is very kind and put a lot of effort into this for their first game.

Excellent Galaga style space shooter, fun classes to choose from, good music. Definitely worth a dollar!

REMOTE LIFE

REMOTE LIFE

This is the most Amazing, Original & Awesome Shoot Em Up I have ever played, I have been following this game for quite a long time..The wait is finally over with superb positive results,

far higher than my expectations.

This game feels like its from another dimension…Theirs lots of great side scrollers out there,

but this one REMOTE LIFE as got everything & much more, the graphics & the detail is incredible also everything you click on before you even start to play the game,

the Art work is beyond Awesomeness. :)

First impression

The first thing you’ll notice is the game looks beautiful, it’s a 2d horizontal shmup but all the graphics and animations are 3d rendered. The art style looks like it could have been by inspired by HR Giger but it’s a lot creepier. What stands out as well is that it’s a twin stick shooter. It may look a bit unusual with all weapons coming from one point in front of the ship but it works well. It allows for the game to bombard you with enemies coming from all directions even while you’re manouvering through tight tunnels and obstacles.
