Vermitron
Very cutesy action game with old school art. If you are up for a retro adventure and like exploration, give it a go!
It doesn’t look that challenging, but it’s not easy. Also, there are some mechanics I didn’t get at first, but you learn as you progress more in the game.

TL;DR: Give Vermitron a shot.
When most people think of twin-stick shooters, they think of raw micro mechanics. Disciplined aiming, shooting, and dodging, instead of careful, methodical thinking. Tibor Fobel embraces the later, fabricating a retro and tower defense hybrid. The result: a solid, old-school action game that deserves more attention.
Vermitron follows an intrepid astronaut, defending an endangered flower from invading insects. Player’s progress level-to-level, descending further into an infested base. Winning a floor is simple: blossom your flower by collecting three watering cans. However, hungry pests will be squirming to your base, so you’ll have to defend your plant along the way. Slaughtering worms and flies is easy. The trouble comes when picking up a watering can, which spawns a wave of insects. You also become slower, barely moving faster than a grub. Without a base defended by armed towers, your flower will be easy pickings as you travel back.

I got a key from the developer so thank you for letting me try your game.
I wanted to try this game because I enjoy top-down horror games like this, sometimes when I was playing I couldn’t pick up items for some reason took me a while to figure out how to get into my inventory but that’s just me i’m thick.
I went to the hospital but couldn’t find any trace of the person I was looking for but again maybe I wasn’t looking in the right place.
Overall I really liked it and gave me retro vibes of playing back in the 80’s and 90’s I made a video with no commentary just having a look at the gameplay.

Yet Another Zombie Defense HD
I am i fan of the orignal Yet Another Zombie Defense game and when i heard about this HD remake or in a full sense “Unity” remake of the game i could say i was hyped for it i spent 27 hours on the last game and i was ready to sink in more of my life into the game with my bestfrind so me and them save up to get the game. once purchased i was outstanded by the more in detail put into the zombies and the rounds how they put in new points to make old fans have fun again andf to hook the new ones into what game they had and also it was 99 cents to all users who own the orignal and that is a huge plus.

I have a little over 100 games and I rarely thumbs down games (this is only the second time), because developing a game takes hard work, no matter how bad I feel said game is.
However, I feel the need to thumb down this game:
-
Feels sluggish/laggy from the get-go, but it gets worse as you get deeper into it;
-
Crashes/kicks you randomly to menu, which is especially frustrating without any form of saved game;
-
Terrible design decision (non-hosts can now buy stuff using their share of pooled money);

VERSUS SQUAD
I’m big fan of Shoot ‘‘em up with Twin Stick Shooter. I’ve played them since my childhood. My favorite games was Alien Phobia series (1, 2 and 3) and Crimsonland. Nation Red was like Crimsonland but just much better in every way possible. This could be called sequal for it since it’s made by same guy.
Versus Squad is game which is made by one guy who listens players. Even though this is not in early access game is ever evolving. New thing come from time to time. If you don’t believe me check recent updates!

Versus Squad: An addiction in a nutshell.
I bought Versus Squad during the summer sale with the notion that it would be a “fun 4 dollar game”, but it turned out to be a lot more than that.
Versus Squad is one of those games that can easily become an addiction. From the outside looking in the game might seem repetitively simple. “Build Here. Kill Here. Die Here.”, is how games like this normally are and once you establish that the game can become stagnant fast. Versus Squad isn’t like that. While this game isn’t overly complex it does have enough complexity to keep you playing.

Will you attack from above, below, or both? Whether you approach with style & finesse or overwhelm by brute force, you’ll be faced with new challenges and find new strategies each match.
Trashed
Edit: This game is chugging right along. Still recommend, still think $10 is too much. But if it keeps going, it’ll be worth it in no time.
Ok. Here we are a month and a half in. I just picked up this game because the partner saw it and said it looked like something I would like. I did not realize it was pre-alpha, I just jumped in. Bought it for both of us. We’ve both put about or close to, 10 hours into the game, each.
I want to like this game mainly because I don’t wanna be wrong about spending $10 or go through the refund process. I am really hoping the Dev’s listen to gamer suggestions and improve this little project.

This is currently pre alpha, and that taken into consideration, i could still not recommend. It is utterly unplayable 5 min in with frames counting 1/min.
I’m gonna wait it out and come back in a year or two. You should do the same, unless you wish to support the devs or just have fun money to spend with little return.
Edit: after another 4+ hours of gameplay, most of which spent on just getting the game off the ground, there are additions to be made.
Hey.
So, i checked it out again as pr your recommendation. I’ve sort of completed the game - in the way that the game’s broken, inhibiting further progress through the story.

Armed to the Gears
Armed to the Gears:
It all started with the discovery of the Neutronium base element from a deep excavation in 2029, somewhere near a place named Main City. Neutrium turns out to be a powerful new energy that can be used to power batteries and equipment for hundreds of years. This type of energy is always useful for military purposes, and the countries that have access to the Neutrium start a race to develop the ultimate automated warfare unit. The citizens of the world take to the streets to raise their concerns, but the world turns to chaos, leading to the rise of three terrible factions. The worst of the three, the Ministry, wins the race and now controls the world with these ultimate machines of war. That is, until a rebellion of hackers plans to use the machines against the Ministry. It’s going to be Armed to the Gears!

Don't get me wrong with this review, I DID have fun… but there are several things wrong with this game. That being said... i only had like 5.5 hrs ACTUAL time played on campaign..... watched a movie with the wife and went to get more beer while the game was still running. (New Predator movie rocks btw). This game does not suck. I know it is in alpha. I want to like this game more, byt they have a lot of work to do
_Upgrading is confusing at first.. I feel it should be seperated from the turret menu_
