Mandala
Mandala in the eastern languages means circle and they are geometric shapes inspired by nature and the world surrounding us. They unfurl from a center and spread out towards the edges, in the direction of infinity. Drawing and coloring a mandala has been a meditative activity since a long time. It lets one explore themselves through an interesting choice of shades which represent a creative stimulation.
Mandala brings forth this experience in a videogame.
Game experience
The game’s rhythm is not hectic, but it requires concentration and reflexes nonetheless: the mandala shoots slow and numerous bullets which move in a rotating fashion. The complex patterns are hard to predict and feel hypnotic. The colors and the music help creating a strong sense of immersion, aided by a steady gameplay rhythm.
Customization
The mandala’s customization is essential: you can choose between various drawings, styles, brushes, tones, themes and music that influence both gameplay and aesthetics. Each game is unique and Mandala gives you total creative freedom.
A linking story
Thin, yet enduring threads link every mandala to each other… like true friendship. Discover the story of Camilla through the pages of a diary; unveil her story by completing all the mandalas in the book.
The editor and social media
When you complete a mandala, it is possible to view your score and be rewarded with various marks, depending on how well you played. There is also an editor in which you can customize the output of your game, export the image in .png format and share it both on social media and online leaderboards.

Boomerang X
Boomerang X is an insanely fast paced fling and zing game.
I see a lot of people leaving reviews saying that they are upset with the fact the base game takes only 2 hours to beat.
What they always fail to mention is that those 2 hours are packed to the brim with just about all the content you need. The arguably short playtime required means the game will never feel dull and every 10 minutes or so you will be introduce with a new environment, possibly new ability, and more knowledge on how to beat the next level. It’s addicting to go through the motions of progressing in this game which is why I think it’s so appealing to speedrunning.

$20 for such a short game is fairly steep (1-3 hours with New Game+), so I can only recommend this game to anyone interested in speed running and gyro. I’d honestly put this game at $5 - $10 max regardless of it being a speed run game. The only reason I paid the full $20 was because of Flick Stick.
An issue I’ve seen brought up is that Flux (slow motion) is too strong. You can use it every time you throw the boomerang. This feels like it was balanced for New Game+ as enemy density basically forces you to constantly use it. Since there is a super meter in the game (Comet Mode), I think there is an obvious solution. Make it so taking out enemies not only fills Comet Mode but using Flux will also drain it. Since the game was made for speed running though, I don’t think any changes will be made to Flux.

Enemy Remains
Yelp Rating: 4/5
Graphics: When starting off in the first level, you are greeted with a wonderful, yet gore-filled map with calm, yet unsettling tones. When making your way through the maps, you will be greeted with much more colors that really bring the eerie feeling of the game. As you adventure throughout the map, you will come across other gore scenes, such as animal intestines and mobs.
Gameplay: The concept behind the game is simple. Shooter game, figuring what the hell happened, defeating hostile mobs, along with bosses, which vary if difficulty as you progress. You come across crates filled with loot, traps, explosives, and much more! There are a variety of weapons to use, especially figuring out the best combo for bosses and mob gang-ups.

Enemy remains is your classic top down shooter with various power-ups and weapons found through the game to use at your disposal. It has various traps and enemies which can have extremely variations of attack. The bosses are challenging but not super difficult where it makes you want to quit the game. The mechanical machine you ride in could use some type of attack or two but man can it run stuff over! If you like making monsters suffer this is your game! I have yet to try the multiplayer aspect so this review will be edited.

Gemini: Binary Conflict
Welcome to Gemini! A binary planet system orbiting a red dwarf host star. You join us in the midst of a skirmish between the inhabitants of two worlds who are on the brink of all out war.
The Avians (an enlightened bird-like species) occupy the original homeworld, with their distant cousins, the Trivexians (an aggressive reptile species) inhabiting its twin. Both planets originally had temperate climates with resources to spare, and while the Avians had the foresight to maintain and protect their biosphere, the Trivexians were careless and greedy, reducing their world to an arid, almost lifeless desert.
As resources diminished, the Trivexians became envious of their Avian cousin’s world, with its tantalising oceans and luscious purple vegetation. Following a number of incursions to take back what they believed was rightfully theirs, the fighting ensued. Join the battle, pick a side, fight for a cause, and destroy the enemy.
‘Gemini: Binary Conflict’ is a multiplayer, class based, first person shooter set in an exotic environment with a bold visual style. In-game you will find some unconventional weaponry, equipment, armour, class roles and modes. The game aims to provide a subtle mixture of mechanics both familiar and unusual to create a unique and engaging gameplay experience.
Features:
-
Player class system, with an array of unusual weaponry and abilities, making each class truly unique.
-
A variety of PvP gamemodes up to 16 players, ranging from Free-for-all to our flagship mode, ‘Warpath’; push enemy lines aided by an army of AI droids, deploy support structures and strategise with your team to take down and capture enemy bases.
-
Co-op gamemode ‘Holdout’; up to 5 players stranded in enemy territory survive increasingly difficult waves of hostiles and boss encounters, whilst activating defences and power-ups to aid the completion of the objective: successfully repair the base.
-
XP / Unlock system, allowing players to level up their classes, unlock armour cosmetics and weapon / equipment sidegrades as they progress in-game.
-
Player customisation system, allowing expressive variety in-game. Players can choose any colour for armour and weapons, as well as individually swap armour pieces acquired in class progression.
-
Armour destruction system. Armour is not only customisable, but it actually protects individual parts of your body, both functionally and visually destructible, allowing for an extra layer of depth in combat.
-
An array of maps featuring visually bold and unique environments.
-
Fully fledged bot support. Bots capable of competing alongside you as if they were real players, taking objectives, using equipment, customising themselves, and taking advantage of their individual class strengths, on any gamemode.
Have a Blast
If you are looking for a Retro Arcade Party game this might be the game for you. Its not that fun solo, but played with a group of friends you will Have a Blast! See my youtube channel for my full review and gameplay

I played a previous version with friends and with the developer on Gamescom two years ago. I bought it as soon as it was released on steam.
The versus mode is the only mode I played so far, which is already a blast of fun: killing your friends with good moves and lucky shots.
Only downside: There’s only remote play but no pure online play.

Pandemic Panic!
It’s intense. You don’t get time to prepare, the enemies start spawning after seconds, and you need to get moving.
The enemies are just the right amount of bullet spongey to be difficult in groups larger than 6 or 7, but not soft enough that you can just swat away one or two.
The soundtrack is an energetic synth which I would consider using for a pleasant alarm in the morning.
The chaos in this game gives it hours of play time just in trying to learn the map’s layout, and the common spawn points of the pills you need to collect to keep going.

Attack Of UNDO Zai
General:
The sound and music are set to zero volume by default so I thought I had no sound for a second.
The menu broke when I looked at the keyboard controls. After clicking the back button from the controls screen, there was no back button on the main settings screen. I fixed this by pressing enter which brought me to the controls screen and then clicking back on the controls screen. The back button on the main settings screen was now there.
I like how you get the Bronze and Silver achievements for getting the Gold achievement at the end of a game.
