Great flash game, and still great now; I might be biased having played this game who knows how long in the past, but I’ll always be excited seeing flash games break away, especially with flash now dead. Can’t wait to see if these guys or other flash game creators will bring along their (other) work for the later generations to see them.

Imitating Zombies

Imitating Zombies

Lucky me gets to write the first review for yet another HotFoodGames asset flip/cash grab.

Imitating Zombies is another GameMaker Studio asset flip from serial copy+paste infringers, HotFoodGames. All these guys do is rip off game templates and projects from the Yoyogames/GameMaker Studio marketplace, change the name and a few cosmetic details, and try to scam people into paying for someone else’s work on Steam. They have run asset flip scams dozens of times, and this is no exception. It’s nothing but a cash grab.

Rise 2.0

Rise 2.0

Nice and simple game, great music and concept. It would be a very good game for its scale if it got some more polish in the way how the controls work and how the game communicates its concepts.

Some feedback for the developer(s):

  1. To jump I drag my mouse pointer and that’s fine. What’s weird is that it seems like the game tracks not how I drag the pointer on the screen, but how it moves in the game world. Meaning that if i fall down my arrow starts pointing down and I have to cancel my attempt.

Dear god it’s beautiful. My premonitions used to manifest in visions of utter terror and desolation, humankind wiped from this earth like excrement from a boot.

But now, thanks to the420, I see fields of green, red roses too. Play this game, if only to say you have become a part of what makes gaming good.

・感想

当初よくあるメトロイドヴァニア風なゲームだと思ったが、違った。

初代悪魔城+ロックマン風ステージにグラディウス風パワーアップ要素を足したという感じ。

オールドスクールらしいゲーム性に快適な操作性、作者がそういった古いゲームが好きということが何となくわかる仕掛けも多数あり、中々おもしろい。

パワーアップの進捗に伴って鎧の色が変わる演出はとてもGOOD

ただし一発死の場所が多く、操作キャラゼロでロックマンをやっている気分になる。

(主人公は剣による近接攻撃のみ、サブウェポンが飛び道具となる悪魔城方式)

サブウェポンも全20種類のうち持っていけるものは1つ、入手のたびに切り替え&一度やられるとロストでとても厳しめ

つまり、難易度はインディーらしくとても高い

特にボスはステージ4以降パターンを覚えて対処してもなお厳しいものがある

実質的にステージ内でのパワーアップを持ち越してボスを倒すのは厳しいと想定

グラディウス方式のため一回やられると初期状態での再開となりさらにきつくなる。

※ボス時のみ最低限のパワーアップは可能な部屋へ戻される救済処置あり

Review by Gaming Masterpieces - The greatest games of all time on Steam.

|

Is this game a masterpiece? No, but it is a fine time-waster for anyone who likes the genre. It plays fast and satisfying, the visual presentation is good and magic spells and bossfights require a bit of thought during the mayhem.

It is a platformer on speed. You play a heroine with a long reaching sword which she can use very skilled (and fast), slicing through weak enemies like pudding while guitar riffs provide the musical background. There is no stamina bar, so you can slash as much as you want. You can also use a magic weapon (only one of the 20 that can be found can be equipped), as long as you still have magical energy (which regenerates over time). Killing enemies and destroying the picturesque environements (hanging corpses, gloomy lightsources) often yields you pickups. The sword can be used fast and has a far reach, so it is not too difficult to defeat your foes, also you can (double, later triple) jump rather far, which makes the platforming a joy. So, with a little bit of training, you slice through the levels quite fast - until you reach the boss at the end, where a little more concentration is necessary. With enough pickups, you can upgrade your heroine’s powers, when you die (you start with only one life but quite a few health points) you restart at the last checkpoint (without the upgrades). Game progress is saved when you complete one of the eight stages.

I never played the original, but the style is still quite nostalgic. And who doesn’t like dinosaurs? Old school difficulty, but fortunately it doesn’t cost to feed quarters.

Retro Classix: Joe & Mac Returns

I feel like a lot could be done for this game, on a more presentable approach.

Joe and Mac plays a lot like Bubble Bobble, except with a prehistoric theme, which is fantastic on it’s own. You play as either Joe or Mac, two cavemen that rescue cave women from the threats of cutesy enemies. It’s simple enough. I really do dig this game from it’s gameplay to it’s visuals, with it’s nice charming, colorful arcade graphics. Very easy to get into, even though sometimes there’ll be frustrating BS moments in the game like expecting you to be quicker than the hitscan or so.

Easy Single Screen Fun !

Platformers back in the 1980’s and the early 1990’s were often difficult (especially compared to games being released these days). Sometimes we just needed to relax and play something easy and fun in order to mix things up.

Enter ‘Joe & Mac Returns’, released in the year 1994.

This game has the classic 1980’s single screen gameplay, but with all the bells and whistles of the 1990’s.

Expect at least an hour of fun, a few bosses and some good old fashioned “cheeky” humor.
