Firelight Fantasy: Resistance
The genre of the game is quite interesting, the locations (their graphics) are also pleased. Although nature looks unrealistic, the stylization is good. It would be nice to think over the lore of the game more competently, but everything is fine. Hopefully support for gamepads will be added.

An interesting game, but I will note a number of pros and cons:
Pros:
-Difficult and interesting battles
-Moderately balanced enemies and the main character
-Epic music
-Beautiful stylized environment graphics.
Cons:
-Lack of gamepad support. This is an essential for such a game.
-The plot isn’t really interesting

Zeus Begins
You know, I grew up playing games like Golden Axe and the Streets of Rage series, so side-scrolling beat-em-ups games are kinda part of my gaming DNA. So imagine my overwhelming sense of nostalgia when I first booted up Zeus Begins and was greeted with a story told in pictures with text at the bottom of the screen, and then the opportunity to punch random bad peeps to a pulp!
I honestly had a blast playing this, it brought back so many memories, and there are some lovely little added extras (like every boss having it’s own unique little style, and some bullet-hell vertical-scrolling shooter stages between main levels that are reminiscent of games like 1942). And getting to play as an actual god, being able to kick some serious butt only adds to the value!

Zeus Begins isn’t a bad game. It just isn’t very good either. Kind of bare bones in the fighting department, which is the whole reason anyone would be playing this really. Some good ideas, like the shooter travel portions and the unique boss fights, but only barely implemented in a successful way. Solid starting point for future projects, but not worth the asking price.
