Into the Pit

Into the Pit

This is a 2/3 Recommend. I shall explain why after describing the core of Into The Pit. It is a first-person shooter were you play a sorceror descending into a fiendish Pit to rescue villagers and find out what happened to those who descended before you. To some degree, the maps are randomized. Each level of a descent - or a run - is comprised of 4 chambers. Complete the 4 chambers, descend to the next level, or return with your gains in resources to the village. Then upgrade the village for persistent boons. Merchants, keymakers, etc. offer you help commensurate with the number of villagers you have saved to date. The game very much is in the spirit of Heretic. Your “magic” consists of projectile spells tagged for the duration of your run to each hand. Every completion of a chamber allows you to apply an upgrade to your abilities. The Neglected Potential: Into The Pit’s demo is fun and promises great things in an extended 1.0 full game. Unfortunately, if you play the demo, you’ve pretty much appreciated everything Into The Pit is going to offer you. In the full version, no new spell types, no persistent boosts to abilities, and the few upgrades to your run modifiers are pretty straightforward, as well as quickly obtained. The vast quantities of persistent resources you accumulate serve no purpose… you max out whatever you can in short order, with nothing further to look forward to. The most disappointing village aspect has to be the unlocking of the “Merchant”. Aha, you think - now I can purchase persistent equipment and/or spells and/or spell upgrades for further spelunking. But el-POOF-o, no such thing is to be found… instead this “Merchant” is simply a resource convertor. Resources for which you long ago ran out of uses for. Too bad: all sorts of potential here to deepen enjoyment, including equipment, potions & scrolls, spells & spell modifiers/boosts, levels comprised of more than 4 chambers, additional chamber objectives, villager consequence, etc. . Into The Pit is pretty good, and it could be interesting to see what the developer does next. Ziggurat 2 is the better & more rewarding experience. Love fps action games with rpg depth and long-term replayability. Into The Pit is a 2/3 entry though.

I cannot recommend this game. It starts promising, but fizzle out without even taking up from the ground.

The whole game is just a bare skeleton.

There is no content. Developers blatantly baited and switched everyone who tried pre-release demo. There is nothing new beyong the demo. You literaly could see everything what game could offer during the demo itself. Steam Store description is misleading at its best and false at it worst.

Akinofa

Akinofa

Decent old school shoot-em-up. This is not “bullet hell”.

Collect gold as you progress so when you die you can spend it for upgrades.

The upgrades save as you play, so the more you grind for gold, the more upgrades you can earn and make yourself stronger.

Achievements are easy to collect, although once you have 13/13 and steam recognises you have 13/13 it still does not count the game as completed, even though it says it is completed.

The game does not show up as completed nor does it show in “games” list on profile.

Save Data

Save Data

A BYTE-SIZED ROGUELIKE ANTI-SHOOT-EM-UP

You are a data-integrity program inside of a computer and your job is to prevent other programs from having their data corrupted!

“Enemy” programs emit electron projectiles and your job is to deflect them to “ground” and not accidentally damage the programs themselves in the process. Features 3 worlds of crazy bullet-heck action with semi-randomized room order and an upgrade system that provides a bevy of interesting ways to progress!

The story behind Save Data

Save Data is part of what has retroactively been termed a “molasses jam” run by the Bay Area Dev Collective. The theme of the jam was to make a violent genre non-violent. As I’ve had a growing interest in action games, specifically of the shoot-em-up variety, naturally I wondered what it would be like to make such a game non-violent. The result is shoot-em-up where you have to protect the “enemies”!

The other molasses game jam games are also on steam:

Wilford - Deep Underground

Wilford - Deep Underground

A game where you control Wilford the mining mole, exploring cave-levels and digging at as many rare metals as you can whilst avoiding monsters. The twist is that although you may collect everything that is on a level, the time you take to do it dictates how many points will be taken away at the end, so the points you are left with feel pleasantly like something you worked hard for.

Wilford’s avatar is charming and well animated, and the music is both urgent and interesting, the monsters attack patterns can definitely do with more work, but they are nonetheless a surprising challenge. I’m looking forward to see how the game progresses, i had a lot of nostalgia from this one for 80’s style games.
