Great Game. It has really nice graphics, awesome storytelling, and is very polished.

This is a very good start, I hope that the creator continues on with games like this, because he will get a lot of success with this formula, I personally think.

10/10 would recommend.

I wouldn’t worry for the price, it is a very reasonable price for the time and effort that the creator put in it.

I haven’t had much time to play the game, but for the time I spent on it, it was great.

You won’t regret buying it, it’s just a lot of fun.

The Deepening: Eco-Offensive

The Deepening: Eco-Offensive is a spin-off video-game series set in the “The Deepening” book universe and features the protagonist of the story, Kyle, in his adventures prior to the events in the Book.

With merely a few years left before The Deepening Campaign (a massive solar system taming event) kicks off, Kyle has taken up the mantel to help protect those leading the charge from ferocious beasts that threaten daily working life.

The Deepening is coming, do you have what it takes to ensure its survivability?

Presented in a casually-challenging, neo-minimalistic 8bit package, and strapped with a classic platformer control set – think Mario – you will surely experience some nostalgia-with-a-twist while running around this modernly-polished space adventure.

Travel between the worlds aboard Kyle’s ship by making use of “Rails,” enormous rings orbiting around various planets in our system used for immediate and direct work on and off planet.

Prep various planets in our very own Solar-System by defeating an array of alien beasties with an arsenal of Eco-offensive weapons, and convert them into useful Bio-Essence to help the Research and Development of sustainable atmospheres on the respective planets.

  • Admire a minimally retro inspired, but modernly polished art-style set in an 8-bit Space Opera Universe.

  • Hop between worlds, each with their own unique gravities withing classical platforming action.

  • Take on bounties against large, ferocious beasts, and collect Bio-essence from the lesser for a bonus.

  • Explore increasingly dark caves with beautiful 2D lighting to guide the way.

  • Upgrade a series of tools to help explore every inch of the worlds.

Willy Jetman: Astromonkey’s Revenge

Willy Jetman: Astromonkey’s Revenge

Really enjoying this game so far , it looks great and the gameplay is spot on . There is a bit of leveling up although no choices to be made when you do , you have to discover / unlock / upgrade your equipment in a pleasing fashion .

Its also so cute and funny and the nods to vintage games ( I was reminiscing about Jet Set Willy only yesterday ) really sold it for me .

I just hope it doesn’t get to difficult like these games often do , probably cos I’m rubbish at them . A controller would be good .

Willy Jetman is a very enjoyable platformer game - with a jetpack and a gun. Some times it even feels like a shoot’em’up.

You play Willy, a spaceman travelling the galaxy and cleaning debris for recycling.

When you land on this particular planet, you realize something’s not right as you start to uncover Astrocorp’s evil plans. Thus begins the adventure that made Willy “the greatest hero on the galaxy” (quoting himself). The plot/story is simple and the dialogues are humourous. At first you only have a basic blaster and a very limited jetpack, but as you progress you will find other weapons and upgrades to boost Willy’s power.

When I picked up this game, I thought, “I’ll be lucky if this is even functional.”

Much to my surprise, not only is it functional but it is very fun and reminds me a little of Kirby. Don’t sleep on this!!!

I do wish the developer would pop in to respond. :)

Humanity is on the ropes yet again. What is it with mankind anyway? It seems like every alien race in the universe wants to see us enslaved, obliterated, or pushed into the mud. Once again you’re the lone hero who must push back, and you can’t stop until the extraterrestial menace is well and truly wiped out. Shoot 1UP starts with the most basic concept imaginable: You shoot, and you collect 1UPs. Since I grew up on arcade 2D shooters, I’m surprised to see any game where more than two or three extra lives can be attained per play-through. In Shoot 1UP, you get a 1UP every two or three seconds. Wow, not only is it Christmas, but I got the cyborg unicorn that I always wanted.
