SICKO ISLAND

SICKO ISLAND

My uncle is a friend of the dev, so I got the chance to try the game during its development.

I enjoyed this game and the graphics are really nice. But unfortunately, I have to bring down the settings to play it, since I have an 8 year old computer.

As for the game play, this is not your standard FPS. You must be more tactical. Especially when you reach the sewers. If you try to go in, and Rambo everything, you might find it difficult.

Play around the strats that are available to you.

That’s what I think makes this game unique.

I’m usually more of a console type of player, but when I saw this game, I wanted it to give it a shot.

I must agree with the reviews, that the game can be challenging at first, but it does get easier as you learn the ropes.

So don’t get discouraged, you’ll get a ton of hints along the way.

I also love the fact that this indie game has achievements.

The game looks dark in the trailer, but the actual game play looks brighter.

I did find the game fun and entertaining.

CLOSED BETA/EARLY ACCESS REVIEW!

So I was lucky to be one of the people being able to play around with the closed beta and even though we didn’t have access to all the EA content and even though we ran into quite a few bugs at the time (most of whom have been fixed or being worked on right now), I had a ton of fun playing this.

It’s a relaxing survival and exploration sim with many things to explore, craft and build.

The water physics are amazing. You can basically manipulate the water to do anything, if you know how.

Got an early review copy and was excited to try this as it had been on my radar since seeing the trailer earlier this year. Unfortunately the flaws became readily apparent pretty quickly.

Pros:

  • Looks nice

  • Water mechanics are interesting

  • Gathering resources and crafting are easy

  • Armor and weapons don’t lose durability

Cons:

  • Movement feels really off

  • Even after lowering the sensitivity the camera is still way too fast

  • Combat is not good at all, there’s no blocking, dodging or rolling and enemies have very basic attack patterns

KEEP OUT

KEEP OUT

I’ve spent a long time debating my feelings on this game. When I first saw the demo and some of the artwork, I really thought this would be an amazingly fun game. But, instead, it mostly fell flat. While the visuals are pretty chef’s kiss beautiful… the gameplay and actual storyline (if you can call it a storyline?) was unfortunate. So many points were boring and beyond the few “EEP” moments in the beginning, once you recognize the sounds or enemies it’s just dull and repetitive. The game doesn’t do well to guide you in some points, like the water “level”, so you spend too much time watching the same death scene over and over again. Let us not forget the very strange hit boxes sometimes. I definitely do not recommend this game and I greatly wish I could’ve gotten a refund. Weaveractive, if you’re reading this… I hope you use that money to make a better storyline and overall game. Please and thanks.

This game is so bad. The controls make know sense. Arrow keys and space bar?? I don’t have arrow keys so i had to hold FN the entire time. TERRIBLE. I think this is the worst 20 dollars i have ever spent in my life. Dont play this game unless its on sale.

Stramedia: my_MISADVENTURE

Stramedia: my_MISADVENTURE

Me and my mom have been having a good dinner in the kitchen that night, then the doorbell rang and an envelope slipped through the mail hole.

“Good evening! You’ve been invited!”

…it started off, continuing that it’s an invitation to the “Stramedia Safehouse Facility” breach. The survey was…odd, to say the least, but some of the things were done fairly easy, though I didn’t think it would go through. Then some of the days were spend outside of our homes and school, though it’s up to you to think of whenever or not these were the good days. And then I am sure you know what happened next.

Stramedia - my_MISADVENTURE is an indie horror themed adventure game where you step into the shoes of a classroom warden who signed the agreement to possibly the most bizarre, yet somewhat deadly school trip in his entire life. Of course it may not start off deadly right away, but, uh…yeah, things are gonna escalate. But can you blame him? He really didn’t know what he and his friends (fiends? Frienemies?) were going up for.

Well, what can he do now? Surprise, surprise, getting the hell outta there he must.

(AKA: the stuff worth checking it out and/or purchasing for)

  • The main protagonist is wearing a fedora hat! This is probably the best selling point to this game… I think! I mean…this is one of the main factors you got attracted to that other game with a kid, the kid’s hat, the stuff…uh, no? Okay, but if you know what you’re doing, you can find and recruit three other friends you’ll get (or have) to play as!

  • Essentially, this is another “average mediocre indie” horror game, except the mediocrity here is 99% intentional! And not to mention that it’s got everything you love and hate to see and experience in a horror themed videogame! Stupid simple and ridiculous (and somehow twisted) puzzles (with a lot of “ands”), cliché monsters and thirsty spooky mannequins…except they actually want to drink tea, you pervert. Get out of here!

  • Simplistic Visual Pixel Art Style, Soundtrack and Audio Design! If you like looking at pixels with different contrast, I am sure your eyes will love that, and if your ears love to feast on the Low-Quality DPCM-ish Audio, giving you an illusion that you’re playing a crappy retro GameBoy Advance styled game or something, then you’re all welcome in!..oh, wait, I forgot that we are talking about a game that LOOKS pretty retro…huh, that’s lame.

  • No, really. That kid has a hat.

  • Despite it’s horror nature, it’s also a comedy game! What kind of comedy? This game has got most of it! Whenever it’s all bad puns, visual humor, random, dark, dry or somehow outright gross and (“mildly”) offensive humor, Stramedia has it in the stock and shelves!

  • Prepare for some surrealism, because no matter if it’s an optical thing or not, things are…weird, yet somewhat disturbing, but not personal space like disturbing, because this is where it draws the line even for us.

  • A nice variety of accessibility options! Whenever you want to reposition the dialogue box, change it’s text size, whenever you find some colored text hard to read, or just don’t feel like playing the game with a controller and just want to rest your only arm and control the game with it, it’s no problem! The accessibility (and other) settings options may enhance the experience more nicely! (if there’s something you want to suggest, please let us know and we will gladly look into adding it!)

  • Seriously, that kid is wearing my hat! SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING! DON’T LET HIM GET AWAY WITH MY HAT!! :U

OK lets get this strait it is a work in progress monster hunting game. now while being vary basic and almost lacking in some physics. but the game may be difficult its not unplayable. the graphics of this game are better then some more popular games " fortnite, among us,etc" so if you get this $2.00 game and hate on it well what can I say. you pay less than that in tax on your fast food so you get what you payed for.

This game is pretty good, actually. Although, this game is early access. :) Pretty scary me at first times, because in the jungle, too many trees, it can come out suddenly, like scary jump. Why I’m not got too many scary experience at next match? Because I run to the wide place and wait that monster come out. XD

Features:

-Simple horror survival game (Scary jump included, if you stand the wrong position)

-Nice graphic (At least, not too bad to me)

-Nice atmosphere

-Nice background music

-Simple sound effect

There are also opponents in the game who can pose a real challenge.

In “FIRST MEN´S LIFE” you start with a stone in your hand. The first thing you have to do is find something to eat so that you don’t lose hearts. Once you have done that, you should cut down the first trees in order to be well prepared for the first night. After the first night, you can go on a discovery tour. You discover new biomes, forests, lakes and much more. After a certain time you will meet the first opponents who only want evil. So that you can defeat them, you should be well armed in advance.

What FIRST MEN´S LIFE offers

  • try to survive- Build your own things

  • Produce and cook food yourself

  • many unlockable game objects

  • Eliminate opponents

  • Diversity of biomes

  • Breathtaking graphics

FIRST MEN’S LIFE is developed by a pupil from Hamburg. I’m in the 11th grade and develop this game as an annual work. Game development has been a hobby of mine for years. In the future I would like to develop other small, complex and high-quality indie / adventure games.

I look forward to constructive feedback of all kinds, so feel free to get in touch! I will do my best to be able to reply to messages as quickly as possible so that I can fix problems in the game quickly.

Grey Skies: A War of the Worlds Story

Grey Skies: A War of the Worlds Story

I absolutely love War of the Worlds and anything that involves it.

But if you take the element of the novel and story out, unfortunately the game itself is mediocre at best. The game’s pretty to look at and the dev did a good job of making me feel like I was in England. But the mechanics are generic and the stealth was tedious. Enemies were bland, the crafting system wasn’t all that useful and the characters were next to non existent. I felt frustrated how there was so much stealth revolving avoiding what was basically Human zombies and far too little gameplay against surviving the actual Martians. Speaking of which, we don’t even get to see the Martians! We don’t see how they landed, when they landed and where the invasion began. We go through a drawn out string of avoiding people to get a tiny bit of Fighting Machine activity at the very end.

𝗗𝗢 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗕𝗨𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗚𝗔𝗠𝗘!!! Grey Skies is absolutely miserable, it is a combination of boredom and frustration. Grey Skies is a cheap, buggy and janky mess of a game.

There are a plethora of bugs that are down right annoying to deal with. The gameplay is extremely tedious and slow. Most of the time you’ll be running around a dull map looking for random crafting parts, that don’t really make sense (such as finding a red weed to make a glass of water). There are moments where you are forced to slowly walk down an empty, linear path for a few minutes straight, doing absolutely nothing. The music that starts in these walking sections ends before it is even finished, so you’ll be walking in silence for the last minute of the section. Also, the main mechanic in the game is throwing cups of water at generators.
