Ayo the Clown

Ayo the Clown

I backed this game on Kickstarter and I think it is so much better than anticipated!

It is such a colourful and fun platfurmer game. The art in this game is amazing, with such attention to small details. The 2.5D is used creatively with monsters and boss levels. At the beginning I thought it would be a bit easy but the levels become more difficult and intriguing as you go along, as well as adding side missions and charming little surprises. I love playing it and even my husband was impressed by it. Highly recommend for enjoyable and lovely time.

Kickstarter backer here. Just started playing the game with my xbox controller and I love it. What a wonderful 2.5D platformer! I dig the color scheme so much, it’s so fun and whimsical and vibrant. There’s a balloon ability that you can basically use whenever you land, so you don’t have to collect any items to activate, which allows you to float–it’s a lot of fun! There’s plenty of secrets with hidden treasure and stuff to climb (so usually there’s a path above you you may want to explore as well).

Inferno

Inferno

Inferno is a game about revealing the truth. It is a 2D platform adventure game heavily inspired by 16-bit platformers. Gameplay focuses on action and some light exploration. In this militaristic adventure, play as Blake; a sergeant in the Ragnarok Army, tasked with eliminating threats.

Dive into the planet of Veden VI, full of dangerous creatures in its different caverns and environments. Collect upgrades through the journey to strengthen Blake against the biggest threat of them all, the Ragnarok Army.

Growing up in the SNES era, I wanted to capture the charm I felt playing games as a kid. 16-bit 2D platformers are my main inspiration and I wanted to make a game that my 8-year-old self would be excited to play.

*** Challenging gameplay and boss battles

  • Explore many different dangerous areas

  • Tight and responsive controls

  • Engaging platforming**

Death Wish

Death Wish

Death Wish is an adventure game where you accompany the last boss of the game who, tired of waiting for the player to farm, starts looking for the hero who disappeared during the game.

During your adventure, you will have to defeat enemies using your telekinetic powers, such as village guards, focal NPCs in the story and even bargain with the death itself, so that it catches the hero’s attention and unleashes the battle that our character so desires.

The game contains several different areas with different ways to be completed, as well as bosses that you will have to defeat along the way and several secondary NPCs who just want to know what’s going on.

Venture into this world following the opposite path that the hero followed behind clues and crumbs, exploring the fantasy world in pixel art and listening to beautiful music along the way.

Ralf’s Adventure: Aztec Mystery

Ralf’s Adventure: Aztec Mystery

Game scratched an itch I didn’t know I had. Like Star Tropics 2 and original Zelda had a love child. Only complaint would be how short it is to complete. Would have loved for there to be more.

(I got to dungeon 5)

I wanted to give the game a try since it looked like it could have scratched that StarTropics itch but the art and price tag made me hesitate a bit.

Unfortunately I ended up not enjoying the game at all. The gameplay borrows heavily from StarTropics II. Controlling not-Mike is a bit of a pain. The bat’s quarter-circle arc sometimes making enemies directly in front of you impossible (especially when facing right) so you’re forced to take on enemies diagonally in the one corner you can hit them. Every weapon I obtained had a recurring problem where not-Mike would lock up while the animation plays out meaning you really need to commit to your attacks. Projectiles are not much better. You’ll need to wait until your first projectile despawns before you can throw another. In the case of the kunai (dagger?), the weapon will continue off-screen a ways meaning its a long wait until you can attack again.

URUZ “Return of The Er Kishi”

URUZ “Return of The Er Kishi”

I just finished the game after 5.6 hours of playtime. I must say that this game consist of great pixel art and amazing soundtrack. Other than those, game is needed to be improved at some points such as sound effects, combat mechanics and level design. Sound effects and fight mechanics should include more feeling, otherwise its empty. I do not want to compare with Dead Cells but when you fight you feel you fight, you feel you did combo or etc. Combat systematics are quite nice and simple, developer did not want to make it more complicated and way more nonsense. It is as it’s supposed to be. Quest systematic can be enhanced by adding more useful map and in-game indicators. And lastly, user interface can be made more polished and solid like Minecraft’s. I loved the way game operate the Turkish mythology. Also, this game is the only one of its kind if we consider the story and origin. Thank you for your effort. I enjoyed while playing. Waiting for your future projects.

Hikaye konusunda: Gayet güzel düşünülmüş, Türk mitolojisiyle alakalı olması ise ayrı bir heyecan verici olmasına rağmen oyunun ortasında biraz tekdüze olmuş aynı şeyi tekrar tekrar yapıyoruz, hikaye de bu nedenle biraz kopuk geliyor. Başlangıç ve bitiş ise harika.

Müzikler: Çok bir şey demeye gerek yok, oyuna çok iyi uyuyor ve gerçekten güzel yapılmış.

Oynanış: 0, direkt ve net olarak 0, her 3 saniyede bir görebileceğiniz savaş animasyonuna takılıp uçan karakterler mi dersiniz, görevlerin buga girip otağlara girip çıkmadan kabul edilmemesi mi dersiniz, canınız ne ara gidiyor, siz karşıdakine vurdunuz mu vurmadınız mı belli değil, zaten karakteri kontrol etmesi çok zor iken düşmanların bu kadar fazla vurması da sürekli can basma spamlemenize neden oluyor, yaylar başlı başına bi saçmalık, hasar vurmuyor, kontrol efektleri dışında kullanmaya değmiyor, ama en azından düşmanlar güzel yapılmış, sürekli aynı şeyle savaşıp bıkmıyorsunuz.

Witchfall

Witchfall

Welcome to the world of Witchfall, a land filled with wizards, witches and just about every magical creature you can think of. Legend has it that there is an all powerful object known as the Hawk’s Legacy. To protect this legacy from falling into the wrong hands, it must be kept moving, and thousands of delivery mages traverse the land each day with the assumption they may be carrying said object.

Meanwhile in Ludwick Town, five hopeful little wizards and witches in training are hoping to take on this task one day, and are about to start their final exams. Under the wing of the Great Master Divarnas, they’re sure to have quite the adventure..

- Koemi -

Koemi’s an energetic kitten who dreams of becoming the world’s most powerful sorceress! She’s a bit overconfident and quick tempered, but she has no tolerance for evil and is always willing to help anyone in trouble.

- Rez and Orbessa -

Rez and Orbessa are two inseparable best friends who work wonderfully as a team. Rez can come across as air headed and not always aware of dangers around him… but he’s brave and always ready to protect his friends. Orbessa, however, tends to worry a little too much - but everyone knows that comes from her loving little heart.

- Sloberg -

Sloberg is surprisingly a speedy turtle who wants to pass his exam first-try on principle, and to prove to everyone he’s not a boy to make fun of… Sloberg can come across as sassy and sarcastic, never really seeing the bright side of things. However, deep down he knows who his friends are… and they might even get a smile out of him one day!

- Maya -

Maya is a shy and timid raccoon who works very hard to show people she can be helpful, and hopes to do something everyone will remember! She is always very polite… even to her enemies… and she absolutely loves Strawbs.

- Envel -

Envel.. well, just. Envel. A lovable little sheep who loves to partake in her hobby… flying? She’s a very happy girl as she mostly has her head in the clouds, but very rarely, she’ll come out factual outbursts that can silence a whole village..

Witchfall is filled with many collectibles and other wonderful things to find, many secrets to discover, and a whole bunch of mini games to enjoy! There are also an abundance of Side Quests to take! Those who seek a completionist run can expect a whole bunch to do!

If you’re a fan of trading cards and such… Witchfall is the game for you! Collect over 100 different cards spread around the world, trade them with NPCs to get even better cards, and why not see if you can collect them all? And watch out… some of these cards might just add special bonuses/abilities, and they don’t always carry just benefits with them…
