Lots of things are quite funny about this game.

First and foremost, searching through the few games published by this developer you’ll read about Legacy of Medieval (is this even English?) which has a precise release date: November 25th, 2021.

I’m writing as of the first half of 2018, so well.. at least we’ve got some precision here. Not the usual “within some months” or simply “in arrivo” (wondering how’s translated that in English, since I use the Steam client in Italian.. probably like “incoming, we don’t know when but eventually it will become purchasable”). No, we’ve got to wait for 4 years but surely it will be worth it.

Super Star Panda

Super Star Panda

Super Star Panda is one of those little gems, hidden in vast and wide Steam. It has a very unique and nostalgic ‘vibe’ of video games from my youth. You know, Amiga 500, NES, Gameboy and others. It’s simple, but not easy.

You can play it for 5 or 50 minutes and you’ll always get a dose of fun. Its not something that’ll make you skip the night, but it will make you keep coming every now and then. Kinda like Bejeweled, Zuma or Desktop Dungeons.

I initially bought this for my 7yo son (there are virtually NO video games on Steam, for his age range) but I ended up playing the game myself lol. And for one buck this really is no-brainer.

Fun, casual game with animals floating in outer space.

It mellowed me out after work. Well, I mean at the beginning, because it’s getting pretty challenging after a while :D.

The style reminds me a lot of good old retro flash games, and the music fits quite well.

There is a fine option to play with the keyboard, and also a secret second option to play with the mouse, that is freakin impossible hardcore.

Love to see more from the dev!

Ball 2D: Soccer Online

Ball 2D: Soccer Online

This is a nice game to play with friends. Its simplicity and physics are good, and the variety of modes is great. I feel like this game would get even better if it had BOT players, since not very many people play this. If BOTs could get added, I would really appriciate it. The same thing with Head Goal ; BOTs would make that game even better too. To others who are wondering whether or not you want to try this out, I recommend that you should, and to the developers, thank you, and keep up the good work!

Ball 2D: Soccer Online is a beautiful masterpiece.

It is a game that has shaped the world and our current existence in which we live in. Unusualsoft has done the impossible, and has created a new genre, a new GAME, that has taken the world in it’s hand, and saved it from the destruction of humanity. It has taken people with wide open arms, and showed them to true greatness, in which some people thought not possible. This game has shapen what we have come to expect from video games, and has set the bar so high for modern games, that nothing can keep up to it… except for maybe Ball 3D: Racing, Soccer & Sports. This game has changed my life, and i hope this game can be brought onto all current consoles and mobile devices.

This game is a masterpiece. Might be a little tough for you noobs but my highscore is 98, beat that :)))).

P.S. I got this game for 50cents, quite the steal for such an amazing game tbh.

This game could easily be put out of early access. It is just that amazing just add a few more feature and it will be perfected, this game gets a 10/10 on how good it is.

the game left only positive emotions. Hardcore mode makes you sweat a little, and the game also has many levels, and more specifically 30. Sound atmosphere, just chic.

FANTASTIC until it chokes at level 37 in master mode. Bummer.

Real player with 45.9 hrs in game

In short: It’s a perfectly functional, if pretty cheaply-made puzzle game with zero variety, but a lot of content. I’m enjoying myself and the pricing is very fair.

In long: The game has one mechanic and one mechanic only: After 10 tutorial levels there will always be a 6x6 grid on which 2- and 3-tile blocks are arranged so they block the exit. Grabbing them with the mouse allows you to slide them along their length-axis. You need to cleverly slide them back and forth until you’ve moved the target block (always on the third row from the top) to the right edge of the grid so you can slide it out of the exit. There is an undo button which comes in very handy on later levels. There is no time limit (and indeed no time keeping even), but there is a target number of moves on each level which seems to be based on the optimal solution (as I’ve never managed to beat it). Based on your performance you’ll be awarded 1-3 stars, but the game is thankfully very generous in this evaluation. The following move-counts all gave me the full 3 stars: 11/10, 17/15 and 25/21 while 29/24 only awarded me 2 stars. With this leeway it’s fairly easy to 3-star every level.

Kanso

Kanso

How to describe Kanso? Well, you play with your mouse, and you have to draw a line around a shape! Sounds pretty simple right?

This is one of those relaxing, zen like games, where you think everything is all easy and simple, but quickly you realise that things take some skill. This is a “line following” game. Everything is very bright and colourful and really is a joy to play.

As you draw around the shapes, there are “Koi like Daemons”, they kind of look like giant sperms, or perhaps tadpoles, they are on their own little journey, come into contact with them and you will have to start again. As you draw your line, you cannot go backwards, only forwards, but you can speed up or slow down, or even stop, that will allow you to avoid the Daemons, and finish the shape. As you progress through the levels, the shapes become more interesting and there are more Daemons to avoid, some will try to follow you, some will avoid you, some do not care about you. But you must always care about all of them if you want to progress.

Fun, quick and easy game for de-stressing! Fun to play quick or make a night of it!

The game is cute and adorable. You can change the background/tiles. You gotta be quick playing the levels! There are many, MANY levels. I wish there was more of a challenge to levels or variety of positions to the titles, but otherwise it is a good training game to get back into Mahjong! Thank ya for making this game!!!

Raid on the Zone

Raid on the Zone

Been playing this a couple of times now, and I’m very fond of it being so close to the original Raid on Bungeling Bay, even though it has been enhanced with more intelligent AI, which also makes it a bigger challenge. I haven’t beaten it yet, but I’m going to! Lots of good gameplay and replayability. Recommending this for everyone who likes to shoot stuff and have fun!

I really enjoyed this game as it resembles the old Raid on Bungeling Bay, which I have enjyoed a lot as a kid. The game is hard but loads of fun! :) Highly recommended for anyone with a trigger finger.
