Axe Girl

Axe Girl

Overall a pretty solid platformer. Great boss design, honestly. I wish there was a boss rush mode in the game. Very visually appealing artwork, and a very catchy soundtrack. Only major complaint that I’d have is the difficulty spike in the second to last level is pretty steep, only to fall off significantly come the final level.

Diluvian Ultra

Diluvian Ultra

In Diluvian Ultra you play as Atilla, an undead king that is awakened in deep space, aboard his tomb, ship by an invasion of unknown enemies. He must fight to prevent them from stealing his most sacred object: The Book of Life. Without the book, Attila’s order can’t revive the long-dead human species.

The spaceship is a living combination of flesh and stone, teeming with creatures created to serve a purpose aboard the ship. Even the doors are alive.

Diluvian Ultra is built around a damage system where you have to combine weapons to be effective. Armor negates most damage, but some weapons are designed to damage only the armor itself, setting the victim up for a lethal blow. The player has to be careful, as enemies will combine their attacks in the same way. Armor damage cannot kill you, but take too much and a single well-placed lethal attack will kill you in one hit.

Combat in Diluvian Ultra is all about mobility. Dodge enemy fire, while you chain together ranged attacks with close combat blows and devastating ground slams to interrupt and stun your enemies.

The weapons range from living insect guns, to plasma spewing shotguns. Each has a unique special reload function, like healing armor damage or turning the magazine into a grenade.

The Falconeer

The Falconeer

Alright, here’s the dealio, I saw this game before it was released and was instantly enamored by open world flying and dog fighting mechanics (something I’ve dabbled in before and liked). I followed it very closely until it released and bought it almost immediately when it was available. At first I used a controller to play the game, unsure if keyboard and mouse worked (my preferred method), it was a bit wonky and the controls took some time to get used to. While the game says its not keyboard and mouse supported I play it keyboard and mouse anyway, my fingers are not suited for basic controller controls so when it can be keyboard and mouse that is my go to any and every time regardless if its made for it or not. Using my preferred control system does increase my enjoy-ability to play the game (because duh I can actually PLAY the game this way).

Review by Gaming Masterpieces - The greatest games of all time on Steam.

Above the clouds, freedom must be boundless… or not, as The Falconeer shows us. Our falcon makes it only just above the clouds. Most of the time we fly either very close to the ground or at cloud height, but not much higher. That makes sense, because it’s damn cold up there and the oxygen is a bit scarce.

Hazmat Hijinks: Total Meltdown

Hazmat Hijinks: Total Meltdown

I can’t recommend this game enough, it’s amazing! The dev managed to combine the feelings of both Super Mario World and Old School Puzzle Games (such as Chip’s Challenge and Sokoban) into one amazing package, at this price its a steal and you’d be insane not to grab it. The main levels are fun as all hell and then the secrets, the secrets, this game is just jam packed with them, if you like a good puzzle with lots more to find under the surface, Hazmat Hijinks is your game.

Real player with 25.0 hrs in game

I was looking for a mac-friendly Chip’s Challenge alternative, and this game definitely delivered. I’m about 10 hours in and I think the puzzles, graphics, story, and sound are all great. My only criticism is that some of the “tricks” feel impossible to figure out on your own… I have relied a lot on the let’s play that’s linked from the game’s website. I wish I could have figured out some of these puzzles on my own but would try a level a dozen or more times and never be able to figure the answer out because it’s a brand new function within the game. With that said, the let’s play is interesting to watch to get some additional background information from the creator, and there’s a really cute PDF manual you can download too. Overall, I do think it’s great, and very much worth the price.

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

Peblito: Rock and Roll

Peblito: Rock and Roll

PSA: The control scheme is wrong. Tutorial and menu wil bothl tell you that it’s left click to dash, but it’s actually right. Q and E, meanwhile, are correctly mapped, but only seem to work while in the air - which the game apparently thinks too minor a detail to bother mentioning. It took me a good five or ten minutes of aimless wandering to figure this out, so spare yourself my fate and keep it in mind.

Alright, on to the actual review.

Peblito takes me back to a time when game design was not a science, or even an art, but a quick bodge on the back of a beermat. Like the great platformers of yore (and unlike the pale imitations of today), this game is willing to let you sit around and discern the way forward on your own. I didn’t know how much I had been missing the sense of ‘being stuck’, until I got to feel it again.

This was a genuinely fun game. The game mechanics are relatively simple but they come together to make it a good experience.

The worldbuilding is insane and at times very self aware. There are a bunch of awesome touches that really show that the development team was passionate about this project

Also in the credits you can see a list of the production studio’s pets which include Harambe, Simba and Toob.
