Tomb Rumble
It’s like a Celeste and Towerfall mixup,
Instead of an strawberry you have to get a crystal, and instead of using arrows to kill others you use traps
Oh, and you can create your own maps, pretty cool

After trying this game out for a short while, I can say two things for sure:
1. While it’s clearly not a Transformice, this game creates a very similar fun and enjoyable vibe
2. I want to actually play Tomb Rumble more!
The pixel visuals fits perfectly for a MMO platformer, and controls are quite good - so far I didn’t had any trouble with movement, which in that kind of game is important. I can’t say much about
I suggest you to try the game yourself, since Tomb Rumble is a free to play title. It doesn’t take much space on HDD, you don’t need to create any external accounts to play it, and each game/level doesn’t take much time. Since Tomb Rumble launched just recently, there are many people playing it online so you won’t get bored.

Apparently this one was originally developed as a Japan-only side attraction to “Infinite Combate”, another game based on the same anime (which, for the record, I know next to nothing about), but is now playable on its own for free; as you’d probably expect it’s a short trip and has no story to speak of, but not too shabby a distraction otherwise.
Your lady knight main character has a standard shot and a powerful piercing wave which can nullify enemy bullets but needs time to recharge; moreover, at the beginning you select two out of five assist characters which act as auto-firing “options”, though you can only deploy one at a time. Your active companion also determines the effect of your limited-use smart bombs when you let them rip.

Lawyer Guy: Defender of Justice
It takes some time get used to the controls on keyboard; z is jump, x is shoot, arrow keys move left or right. V is what you press to create a checkpoint; you only get 4 checkpoints, so set them carefully. Overall, the game is fun and challenging for beginners who aren’t familiar with the genre. It’s still in early access, so there’s only one level available at the moment. I look forward to playing the rest when it’s fully released.

Disclosure - I am a Cool Playtester for this game (check the credits!)
I like this. It’s my kind of game, a 2D action platformer with a sensible but punishing difficulty curve that teaches you what it wants you to do but also lets you make mistakes. Levels are short and sweet once you understand what they’re asking you to do (about 3 minutes long) and there’s lots of space for optimising your route if you like to go back for better times/scores.
The game isn’t finished yet and there’s a lot of work to do to put all of it together, but the single level at the time of this review (November 2020) is representative of the others. I do believe the developer will finish this eventually, although he will take his time in doing so.

Wow…just wow! Finished the game and honestly, it’s definitely a great work. I’m not say much more than this because I might spoil but that ending caught me off guard. I can only sympathize with those kinds of people. The only thing is that I wish it could’ve been longer. To be honest I believe that its a brilliant concept fused with gentle and neat art design. While playing I felt unique experience when struggle completing level by level, not too hard nor easy. The music arrangement also a great piece of this game. I definitely liked the challenge, and its a game I’d replay over and over again. Keep up the good work! Let’s raise our awareness of mental health!

This game is simply amazing.
Every aspect about it is just great. The art is simplistic yet eye-catching, the music is phenomenal (the credits theme being my favourite), and the way the gameplay functions is so satisfying and not too challenging.
But the way the gameplay ties into the story and reflects it’s theme is simply breath-taking, and reframes everything you’ve done until this point.
It’s a short game, but even then, it is worth both your time and money.
I would highly recommend this game.

Cute little standard platformer. Minor gore in the vein of Meat Boy. Good music, for the most part (some of it borders on heavy/overkill, trying to hard, but falls just short of it). Fun, if a bit goofy. Smacks a bit of Super Mario and other platformers of yore, not so much Mega Man (allusion in the title, perhaps a parody of that and SMB). Leaderboards give you a reason to keep playing, and not too hard to make casual players turn away either, honestly. Also, gotta love some of the vintage sound effects (SMW, Sonic, etc).

A tribute to the 8-bit glory days of Mega Man and Mario, this game is fantastic and I would gladly pay for it.
I LOVE the soundtrack. These hard-pumping chiptune techno anthems would feel right at home in Mega Man 2 or 3. Sometimes I just sit and listen to the music. It rocks.
Gameplay is very simple: run and jump. No weapons or abilities, except to stomp. No loot, no cash, no upgrades, and no score; it’s just basic side-scrolling platformer action, pure and simple, with a timer for speed runs. But the controls and physics are solid and have a good “feel”. Most hazards are predictable, but some of the enemy behavior is complex enough to be slightly different each time, so you develop a balance of well-practiced timing and quick reaction to the unexpected.

Cool little retro style, 2 color pixel art, simple yet satisfying game. I feel this will be running in the background for when I am in queue for multiplayer games / between rounds. Reminds me a bit of the mini game from the original splatoon while queued up for a game.
To the dev:
If a windowed mode is possible that would make it even cooler for random games while doing work on the desktop. Good job! I really like it! Keep up the good work.

Take control of Eggbert and save the eggs that appear in his forest, by holding on to an egg long enough for it to hatch. Easier said than done! Because with each egg you save, the next one takes longer to hatch, while the forest’s monsters spawn in ever larger numbers. A charming and addictive little platformer with uplifting music, that will leave you nostalgic for the early era of gaming. Great stuff! :)
