Battle Group 2
If you love old school type action shooters such as Battleships or 1942 then you’re going to love Battle Group 2 as it combines the best of those, it’s so easy to just pick up and play with no complicated controls or instructions and with minimal setup as well so you’ll be up and playing in a couple of minutes. In fact it’s such a breeze that any fool can play it.
This is strictly a single player game with 30 stages in the campaign and starts off very easy and gets progressively more difficult with each stage that you complete, there are no difficulty options so everyone plays the same game. Each stage is very short and your job is to control a single ship at the start and two ships after your have upgraded to fend off various waves of planes and helicopters which can be shot down with your ships guns or missiles which can also be upgraded at the end of every stage when your scores and rewards are displayed. You control a primary ship which is your main weapon and a support ship which offers backup and there are a total of 8 ships that you can collect and use throughout the game.

Despite the name, there really is not much “navy” involved except the overall setting. What this really is is skeet shooting. You don’t move, you simply mow down defenders before they can reach you, much like the good old “Missile Command” except your perspectives shift a bit: enemies can now come from the sides, top, bottom, even from behind. AND you get a secondary ship with some fancy stuff like missile decoy, escort fighters, and so on. And then there are special abilities such as satellite support (i.e. zap all the missiles or all the enemies at once), then there are the boss fights.

I really enjoy this game and think it deserves more hype. It is very thought out and clean. One suggestion would be maybe having a bonus for choosing random powerup at the start? :)
P.S I learned things today about countries.

Riding Seas
Riding Seas is a cartoon-style boat racing game that fits into the arcade racing games of the 2000s (WaveRace, Splashdown, …). A family friendly game, with varied, colorful and fun decorations in which you will find many references to cinema and / or video games.
The game offers:
Shipped
This has become one of my go-to games to sit with some friends and just laugh and have fun. There is a little bit of a learning curve with the controls but it isn’t frustrating. The only real frustration you get is when your friends edge you out. I would like to see more game modes in the future; however, what the game currently has is more than enough for some hours of entertainment with friends.
The local multiplayer can support up to 8 friends or bots and is definitely a joy with more people. Simple yet extremely entertaining.

Español: No he probado el juego mucho rato pero COMPRA RECOMENDADA da igual si no tienes amigos con los que jugar, osi (en mi caso juego por Parsec), modo singleplayer ten buena como multiplayer. Muy buena banda sonora y en mi opinión mejora mucho si juegas con mando.
English(i’m not excellent at english): I don’t tried the game for too long,I TOTALLY recommend it to you if you don’t have any friends to play with or if do you have them(in my case I use Parsec to play online),very nice playing singlepayer. Very nice soundtrack and in my opinion the experience is much better with a controller rather than with a keyboard

Ragnarock
Ragnarock has the best tracks of any rhythm game and I’ve played almost all of them. It takes time learning to hit the drums and booster shields accurately and getting the timings right. It’s a simple concept, but hard to master. Completely skill based. The multiplayer races are super fun and as far as I know, unique to Ragnarock.

The best multiplayer VR Rhythm game hands down, easily accessible to new players while offering great features for veterans, awesome soundtrack with support to import additional custom tracks.
Details for rhythm veterans; a faithful translation of a 4-lane VSRG into VR with tight timing windows and extremely competitive leaderboards even on lower difficulty songs. Highly customizable controls (angle/length/offset type settings for hammers), custom scroll speeds, practice mode with variable playback speed up to 120%.

Furious Seas
Very impressive game so far. I recommend it over many VR games out there.
Pros
-Controls are easy to understand and use.
-No motion-sickness and is a game that can be played standing or sitting.
-Graphics are great, I really like the wave effects and sky
-Cannons load at a perfect speed. Any slower or faster and it might make it too difficult or easy.
-Collect items after defeating enemies, some of which are temporary weapons, gold, and health.
-The constant wind, whichever way you are sailing, is good to keep the game moving. If true wind directions were used, many players would be like sitting ducks in the headwind.

Highly recommended, even in its current state it’s in. There’s three chapters to the game where it welcomes you into the first, pits you against a fun ‘Demon Sisters’ run on the second, and an interesting third leaving room for more fun chapters and campaign fun. Even if it’s a demo, it’s great fun with many more things planned for the game. When you boot up the game you’re basically standing at a shipwreck with the wheel, bell, and a firing turret which makes this an interactive menu, something I praise highly. To your right you’ll find your objectives sinking three bosses with a funny skeleton posing next to the chest. The game is interesting in that semi-realistic yet arcade manner where you have to jump between steering, firing both side guns, while even (by choice) raising and lowering the sails with the two bells with 1 on either side of the wheel.

Salt and Sails
You are steering a “free” pirate ship. You need to use a cannon to knock out anything close, yes, anything, including small fish and bees. I didn’t expect that the little bee could threaten this big ship, I was so naive. And I believe the best Gunner of the 17th century couldn’t hit bees and fish with cannon. Whether I am too young or the game is too stupid is a serious question. But my 3-year-old nephew told me that he thought the game was boring. So I have the answer in my heart.

Underwater Life
Looks like I get to write the first review for this “game”. Underwater Life is a lazy 2D retro style arcade game where you control a small fish in a 2D aquarium and must avoid bigger fish. Eat algae to increase your level so you can eat smaller fish as well. That’s all there is to it.
This is a basic template flip made with the awful GameMaker Studio 2, resulting in a very mediocre experience. Resolution and controls are locked, gameplay is janky, and the game art is mediocre.
These kind of video game construction kits aren’t intended to make commercially viable games, they’re just for sharing with friends and teaching some elements of game making. The quality of this shovelware is far beneath anything that should be published on Steam. The $10 USD price tag for “game” stamped out with a construction kit is just a joke.

Unearned Bounty
This is a fun multiplayer game, with fast paced battles/matches. The game has so far perfomed well on my resource-humble pc, with no lag/latency/BS emcountered except in one game only! props!
So far this ombination of simple, fun, fast paced action with the ease of picking up matches is what keeps me playing,
Notes:
- matchmaking: I tried the matchmaking option once, which was also the last time. That was the firt time I played. The timer kept going but I was not connected to any match.
SInce then, I’ve used the custom game option. Custom game presents me with 1 to 4 rooms, along with the player count in each. occasionally I will have to wait 1 to 3 mins ad refresh the list of custom games

This game shows some real promise. At the moment there are a few bugs and not alot of content but the devs seem active and if they can flesh out the objectives in the battle then this could become a really great moba ship brawler. If they can add cross play PS4 / X360 to help with the population then thatd be even better!
Matchmaking has a few issues at the moment, becasue it’s currently based in NA you may not have the best ping, you can get a group of mates together and host a server though if you want to play on local ping, join the Discord too, it’s slowly starting to grow!
