Metamorphos

Metamorphos

It’s a nice short Souls-like game that can be finished for around an hour and a half.

Graphics are great, but somehow not too optimized even if I set the quality at its lowest. Some animations feels stiff, but this is just nit-picking on my part.

Controls felt really clunky. I don’t know if it’s just me, or the game feels unresponsive. There are times that my character just stands still no matter how much I move my analog stick. The camera moves fine, but I can’t attack nor evade. Its really annoying since this always happens when I’m battling enemies.

It’s sort of like Streets of Rage, I think. Never played that game, but I’m familiar with it’s type: a sort of 2.5D brawler where you shuffle along a mostly 2D plane, but can slowly shift axis. Your attacks mostly only hit along the same axis, though there’s some wiggle room, thankfully. Animations are good, mostly, but combat can start to feel pretty tedious at times, especially since you can’t run from encounters at all, so if you’re struggling to beat a mid-boss, as I was, you have to fight every enemy leading up to them over and over again. Get’s pretty grating. Furthermore, because a lot of evasion depends on positioning, and the basic movement is really slow, it can get quite hard to evade when there are a lot of enemies on screen. You have a spear twirl that can clear out people right next to you, but if it doesn’t connect, you’re basically certain to get counter-attacked in the brief window you’re locked in after the spin. And if you get knocked down with enemies nearby, you’d be better off just laying there because you’re likely to get utterly crushed the second you stand before given any chance to defend yourself. Just a bit of a grind. Not the worst game, but not really something I can get into.

Game’s a giant asset flip. It’s like a first draft of a highschool project.

And It’s not remotely finished at that. One of the last levels don’t even load.

The story and dialog were clearly writen by a young child.

Do not buy.

Very amateur game that ended up breaking on the 5th level. Could no longer use skills in combat which made the stage and the rest of the game unfinishable. Restarting the level or the game did not remedy this. Getting to that point was not enjoyable. The combat was fun at first but after the first few levels you have seen all there is to it. It was that janky fun combat like Enter the Matrix.

Every time you finish a level you are kicked back to the main menu and have to select the next one. The story is told through text that pops up at exclamation points located in the stages. There are no cutscenes. Hardly any interaction with the levels. Some levels are just a single room with a single NPC to talk to. The dialog is bad with sentences that don’t start with capitalized words.

Game is a 7 out of 10 for me the creator definitely improved on it from naginata your sprite is still thicc compared to the enemies but I don’t believe your noggin in this game has near the girth of the geisha from naginata. I like that he added an upgrade system for your weapon in this one where when you get special move bar filling items your shot upgrades and if you take damage you lose it pretty nice reward for not taking damage. Bat form is so much better than jumping as well it can be irresponsive at times for reasons I couldn’t pinpoint but it’s a DEFINITE imrpovement to jumping in naginata. The special move in this SUCKS terribly compared to naginata. Stage 3 is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long and one thing that would take this game a long way is instead of focusing on making the game more difficult by making stages longer and adding a greater number of enemies would be adding different mechanics for enemy attacks quality quantity. Another change that would be super beneficial in this game but possibly a lot of work would be some kind of upgrade shop where you can unlock different attacks, special skills, etc. it would add replay value and just make the game a whole lot more entertaining. Definitely glad the creator made improvements though!

Update: So, I was able to play again, and was doing rather well now that I understand what to do and how to do it. It was nice after a certain stage that when I died I could reload and try again from the same point, and not have to completely start over. Unfortunately, the game froze again and the character stopped responding to the controls. This really needs to be fixed because the only thing to do at that point is to close down the game which just makes me not want to play again. So until this issue is fixed, I cannot change my rating. Once that issue is fixed, I will change my rating from “No, I do not recommend,” to, “Yes, I recommend this game.”

Going Under

Going Under

A neon drenched sugar coated cartoon comedy rogue like with a heart of rainbow.

According to the store page tags, this is an action roguelike dungeon crawler beat ‘em up. I’d say that’s a fairly accurate description. We play heroic intern Jackie Fiasco, and it is her job to descend into the subterranean levels deep beneath her new office to confront and defeat the nasties that dwell there. This involves travelling into “dungeons” beating up lots of crazy characters, and slowly unlocking new perks and skills which can then be utilised in subsequent runs.

Safe to say I really like this game if I’m looking at another dozen or so hours to get the final trophies.

Going Under is a 3rd person action rogue-like where you go through procedurally generated dungeons over and over, slowly getting more powerful to make it easier to bash and beat goblins and skeletons and demons oh my. Now, this is a well-trod path that a lot of popular games have done before so does Going Under do enough to stand out?

Most definitely.

You play Jackie Fiasco, an unpaid intern in a megacorp run Pacific Northwest, starting her first day at Fizzle; a new startup making a carbonated beverage to replace breakfast, lunch and dinner. Unfortunately, as you see a goblin steal some office supplies, your new boss sends you into the dungeons to defeat the employees of failed startups that hide underground. There’s more to it than that; it tells a simple plot and story but does an incredibly good job at satirically poking fun at techbro culture, modern office crap and capitalist conglomerates. It’s often not subtle but bluntly derisive in all the right funny ways. Jackie and her coworkers are actually pretty amusing and engaging characters and anyone who has worked a dead-end awful job is going to repeatedly feel pangs of sympathy for what they have to go through. The characters, the world, the dungeons are all really well done so that everything feels part of this well-designed whole that keeps you in the game. It’s just absolutely charming.
