Child Arms
Inspired by the popular Punch-Out!! and the obscure Neo Geo series Crossed Swords, the arcade-style Child Arms is a game in which you can fight all foes to reach each character’s personalized ending, or you can duke it out in online or local battles. You can also play mini-games and even alter characters' appearances and behaviours in the color and AI editors.
Child Arms takes place in a 16th century unlike our own, wherein humankind remains youthful far longer, and have accordingly shaped their world differently from ours. As a player, you can select one of 8 fighters from varied backgrounds as they explore their previously-undiscovered world, rising to the challenge of combatants along the way.

I’m Strongest Legend
Played this for a little bit and genuinely had fun with it! My friends and I found the sound and ragdoll effects funny. I was surprised to be in a spaceship for level 3 but it made for some more funny moments as I crashed the ship repeatedly (the controls were a little hard to get used to).

Until You Fall
Until you fall is a Roguelite swordfighting game. The basic gameplay is that you advance from room to room killing enemies and receiving powerups as you go. Enemy attacks are telegraphed and avoided by either aligning your weapons to block, or moving your head to dodge. Different weapons have different traits and special abilities, and you can mix and match any two weapons to come up with whatever combos you want to try. Each room and boss you beat awards currency which is used to unlock and upgrade your weapons, so there is progression between each run.

Have you ever played Infinity Blade? If you liked the combat style of Infinity Blade, then you’ll like the combat style of Until You Fall. This is NOT a realistic melee game, but that’s not what it tries to be. Until You Fall is an incredibly fun fantasy arcade-like melee roguelike. Gameplay is simple but very fun and intense (depending on the difficulty of your enemies). The weapon unlocks and upgrades are fun to experiment with, and the melee mechanics are very satisfying. Finally, I really really love the soundtrack - it’s very retro gamey.

Warrior Beneath Heaven
Alright so, this is a special kind of game that most may not be into since it is not 100% complete. It definitely needs updates and more balance.
However, I still enjoy this game. I am a huge fan of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon films and Hero etc. This game reminds me of that wuxia wushu art style.
I feel confident that it will improve over time.
Yes I recommend Warrior Beneath Heaven ! Buy It!!

I’m going to preface this with a disclaimer: while I am giving the game a negative review, I do not DISLIKE the game. In fact I like it quite a bit, and think it has a lot of good things going for it. However, at the end of the day, I feel the flaws significantly interfere with my making an honest recommendation for the game to others. With that said, to go into detail:
This game styles itself off the old-school, pre-Symphony of the Night Castlevanias, specifically Super Castlevania 4. The creators have said so as much. Both in terms of gameplay and aesthetic, this is a game about tight platforming, difficult enemy encounters and a gothic horror locale. Or at least, it tries to be. Aesthetics wise I’ll voice no complaint, save perhaps for the fact the music is pretty forgettable droning synth stuff, but visually the game is a gorgeous pixel art display of grotesque horrors set in the European Enlightenment.

I’m only a few minutes in, but I’m pretty in love with this game already. Works pretty well with Microsoft Surface Go 2. Plays well with 3rd party keyboard and mouse. Using graphics settings to “simple.” I’ve seen a couple reviews here that says the controls feel a little slightly off, mainly referring to using the double jump. At times it does feel a bit of a gamble on how exactly a double jump will be performed, It’s really kind of about finding the rhythm, i’ll use a technical term here; Janky. If you can forgive the jankiness of the double jump and not being able to aim the gun higher than a 45 degree angle…It works. Seriously though, if you like old school, Castlevania, Ghosts’n’Goblins, (I’d even say) Contra NES, goth/horror theme, side scroll, GET THIS GAME NOW. It’s on sale. If i’m comparing apples to oranges, I’m having more fun playing this than I did playing Little Nightmares.

The Classics Re-Imagined!
I don’t know if there are many people who don’t know or at least never heard of the titles “Arkanoid” or “Breakout”.These 2 games were big hits around 80’s and defined a whole era.But how would be a game that would take this classic formula and expand it to today’s standards,managing though to stay honest and respectful to these 2 classics?Please welcome Strikey Sisters!

DYA works their magic again, with their third game, Strikey Sisters. Continuing to experiment with genre fusion, this one’s half brick-breaker(Breakout, Arkanoid) and half action rpg(Link to the Past, Gaia trilogy)…and the results are fantastic! It feels like it could’ve been released as early as the Turbo CD, and as late as the Sony Playstation.
Graphically, this game feels like an authentic Super NES game. Great color palette, wonderful sprite art, and all the character designs are adorable. The only downside is that the screen can be a bit too busy. Sometimes the ball and your character can get lost in the action.

Story Prologue
The atrocities committed in Turing City, Titan, created shock waves across the Nexus.
Theta Corporations home system had been infiltrated by Earth Purists, determined to purge the solar system from the ‘abomination’ of the Nexus Mind, The single most Intelligent Sentient AI mind born of the Singularity.
This event became a catalyst for the 1st Interplanetary war that ravaged through the Solar System.
For 30 years. Millions of souls perished into the cold vacuum of space.
It was to become forever known as ‘The Singularity War’
The Nexus Mind offered a gift in exchange for peace. Space time distortion technology for ALL humankind..
It allowed each faction to look beyond the confines of the Solar System for the first time.
Stability returned to Sol but inter faction differences remained and the scars of war cut deep..
The Singularity Trials was born from this pain.
Each Faction offered up their most competent warriors and commanders to compete in an annual tournament designed to honour their fallen and test their readiness for battle.
For even though the Singularity War was over, the Universe is Infinite… And completely Unknown…

I am Your King
It seems like a fun little game at first, but it often happens that enemies spawn directly on top of you and you die instantly!
Nothing you can do against it and it ruins all the fun. Will change review if dev fixes enemy spawning.

Very rough around the edges, but hey It was worth the $3 I paid for.

Sky Sanctuary
When to buy and when not to buy?
If you don’t like reading, check out our video of this review:
Sky Sanctuary is a beautiful archipelago where you can play all kinds of different Samurai mini games. As the game is in early access, there are only a few things to do at the moment.
-
Japanese wood cutting (Tameshigiri)
-
Bow and arrow skill training (Kyudo with 3 modes)
-
and there is a sandbox zone where you can use/try out several Samuari weapons like Shurikens and smoke screen balls.

When I first saw this game I couldn’t help thinking of similar sword slicing VR titles like Fruit Ninja or Katana X, and wondering what would make this game stand out from its competitors. But actually, Sky Sanctuary is probably the more padded out game of the three by presenting itself as a tongue-in-cheek samurai and ninja training game. So whereas chopping things with a katana is an element of all three games, that’s just one component of Sky Sanctuary’s full experience, also offering the ability to walk around the small floating island, shoot a bow, and mess with ninja type goodies like smoke bombs, shurikens and fire staffs. Both the sword and bow experiences are essentially ranked mini-games, with the option to also just mess around the island with them.
