Knockout City™

Knockout City™

I haven’t been this excited about a game in a long time. The game developers did so many things right.

The game play is a ton of fun no matter how you play it - with friends in private matches or going solo in multiplayer. It’s been years since I wanted to go solo in a competitive game. Queuing up by myself has never been something I cared to do until this game. Now I find myself playing for hours with other randos.

The game mechanics simple to learn and there’s so many advanced tactics to discover and master. There are awesome moments in the game when you make good plays and even when you get styled on you can’t help but respect the other players for what they pulled off. Matchmaking feels typical 50/50, but I always feel like I can make an impact which is the biggest difference between other games.

If you’re chilling at Hideout waiting for your ban to lift, do not, and I mean DO NOT think of riding those floating cars above you.

I’ve experienced the same fantasies you did;;::

""" Perhaps if we ride those cars, they would take us to some mystery hidden spot that will unlock some achievement, or better yet, we would have a phenomenal ride around the city! I meann… There is no way the developers would have these periodically spawning cars above us that take us nowhere.. right??? WRONG!!!

Nah. Sorry for my 2 previous reviews, game is utter cock. You need to have 10+ points better to win a league and even then it is trying hard to make you lose. This game has got dick all to do with ability or management or football sense. The results would appear to be utterly random and i have played 12 seasons and taken lowly Chesterfield from non league to the prem, but you need a far better team than the rest in the league and even then, good luck with the utterly random results.

I liked this game and got addicted to. Good game but in some cases horror. If you restart your career, with any full or soft restart the player salaries are very high during the bargaining with the agent. You cannot handle wgae bugdet given by the board. Only way to get full new registration of the steam. If you look for a manager game for some week, you have to run with it.

I was sponsored to play this for a few hours with a friend, we really enjoyed it and will likely stream it some more. It’s got a clever co-op mechanic and the map design was fun and the soundtrack was also great, though sadly I couldn’t even find it on YouTube. We had a few issues with remote play but it did work and presumably that isn’t an issue on Switch either. Good fun :)

My Review: https://youtu.be/-Ueu03A11gY

I’m already a big fan of 3D Platformers, but one that adds in a twin stick shooting mechanic is not only unique but proves to be a ton of fun! As of writing this, I’m less than halfway through the game, but as a big fan of the genre, this one is doing a lot of things I like already.

There’s beautiful and vibrant graphics, fun boss battles, interesting platforming challenges and of course, a little bit of bullet hell shooting thrown in to mix it all up. The switching mechanic (switching between the 2 main characters) is very interesting as well. While this has been done before, the developer has gone out of their way to implement it so that it pulls double duty being able to break glass, shields and other assorted things.

The games simple, clean and minimalist production quality are by far it’s greatest assets both visually and audibly, it’s gameplay mechanics however require some serious maintenance and overhaul work before I would even consider this game actually completable.

This game is early access as of right now, and has a way to go, but what is in place now is a TON of fun! My biggest gripe is only one friend can join, actually. The story is a great start, the enemies are really well done, and the wolves especially look good. I’m honestly really excited to see what is added later on!

I was a bit skeptical of this game at first; however, after the first hour I was hooked. Graphics, Gameplay, Friendship. It has it all. I played with my speech-impaired friend and discovered that not only was he speech impaired, he was mentally impaired as well. After countless of failures, our mental weakened and we weren’t sure if we could make it to the end. But there was a bright light at the end and just as all was lost we completed the game. Thank you for creating this specimen of a game, the bond we now have has never been stronger. Some might say we are now Inseparable.

Good Thrill! But I wish there would be more saving spots in Chapter 2. One Monster was hunting us all the time back to the house as we tried to get the “survival book achievment”. Felt a bit long lasting and is getting exhausting. It’s still my favorite Map from all Chapters. Chapter 3 felt after Chapter 2 a bit easy, haven’t had the same feeling. Beautyful Map, but not as hard as Chapter 2 in my opinion.
