One More Line
This nice game follows the known pattern - easy to learn, hard to master!
It presents a great colorful main screen and even at a first glance it seems all quite well-made for being a indie game.
It also features a customization section and multiplayer, which is always nice if they’re playable and well-realized.
The core of the game is a one-button, fast-paced action timing game: you’ll play in a vertical scenario as a colorful line and you’ll come across lots of different objects - you’ll have to hold space in order to link to them, and they’ll make you endlessly run into a circle orbit around them.

This is a fairly fun game which would normally get my positive recommendation if it wasn’t for some game breaking bug/issues
It’s a simple one-button game, an endless runner. where you keep moving forwards, try to avoid obstacles and stay in the main path by clinging on to these obstacles, rotating around them until you release the button which will propel you towards the desired direction.
The graphics are simplistic and charming with a few choices for the main “blob”, music is fitting if not a little repetitive after a while and the whole production/programming is spot on, but for the next couple of issues..

Space Giraffe
If you say “Space Giraffe is bad, you can’t see what you’re doing, you just die for no reason!” then you are bad at the game and don’t understand how it works. It’s really as simple as that. Everyone who takes the time to learn how to properly play this game ends up loving it, because it’s a beautiful, satisfying, addictive game and there’s nothing else in the world like it.
That being said the PC port, at least on Windows 10, is inferior to the XBLA original. There’s a bug I’ve noticed where after a while of play, certain important sound effects start dropping out, making later levels in the game more difficult than they would normally be. It also lacks the vibration feature of the XBLA version which was extremely useful (your controller would vibrate every time your multiplier went up, so you’d easily know if you’ve bulled enough enemies off at once) so I would recommend you grab the original if you have access to a 360 or Xbox One.

Just friggin awesome!
Have been playing for years on the 360 but bought the PC version recently as my ancient Xbox is having issues.
The PC version is way better (and I love the 360 version) playing in 1080p makes everything so much clearer.
As for the actual game, well it’s one of the greatest twitch games of all time.
At first it can be really daunting with all the effects and deliberate obstructions but when it all starts to flow there’s nothing like it.
It’s all about the sound effects! In most games SFX are there as punctuation to the gameplay to just have something to accompany the explosions. With Space Giraffe the effects blend with the gameplay to really immerse you.

Cubixx HD
5 stars out of 5; it is like the classic game Qix, but based off a cube stage, and it’s possible to play co-op or MP [5 thoughts]
1. i love this game, to me it is very similar to tetris. simplistic but not easy to master
2. soundtrack has some very decent moments
3. picking your laser’s color will change the sound that it makes… this is huge, imagine if sound #1 annoys the hell out of you
4. depth, beating most of the lower stages will not be difficult. making it to stage 50 on arcade will be

This game is a remake version of a Cubixx game from PSP and I think its pretty good to have a content that isn’t available from PSP.
Its basicly a Qix in a nutshell, its a Mixed ideas between Qix and 3D Perspective, giving a Fast-Paced Arcade Slice and Dice gameplay.
Its really addicting to play this game, and added Steam Leaderboard brings more competitive to the gameplay.
The only thing that I really wish is Multiplayer, since this game supports up to 8 players, if I’m not mistaken, and I really wish if there’s an Online mode where you can play multiplayer also.

Shape Cascade
Fun, short game. I cant seem to gat any achievements though.
– Real player with 3.5 hrs in game
shape cascade can be likened to tetris in a roundabout way, because they both have falling shapes to deal with in the nick of time, but in this game you’re controlling a paddle, trying to push or hit each shape where they belong.

Awesome Mix Tape
Now, I personally recognize my small amount of playtime in this game, Personally I don’t enjoy the gameplay. Although I do see how others could easily like the highscore based, atari-esque games that are contained. Personally I find them all boring and repetitive, the fact that there aren’t any sound settings nor resolution settings is another big turn off. While I wouldn’t personally play it, I do recommend it towards its intended audience

MISKATONIC
HARRY POTTER BUT IT’S A SCHOOL FOR MIDGETS INSTEAD CAW CAW
– Real player with 0.4 hrs in game
MISKATONIC is a Free VR game. It worked on my HTC Vive system, played ?, sounded ok, looked ok. It needs more room in your playspace than it requires, button required to start playing is a reach too far. Has a tutorial room, with instructions but I don’t know how to pronounce the words used for the 3 spells. Reads like the 3 spells are audio activated. Supposed to be a wave defense game where you can blast flying demons, use a shield to protect yourself and make stuff levitate. You are rooted standing to a point on floor, and yeah it is for midgets, so you are looking at inside your body if you are tall.
