I really wish steam had a “meh” option.

The game and concept are AWESOME and the game is really great.

But I can not give this a good rating for a few reasons:

  1. It took me about 30 minutes of play time to get it to be more then just a white screen and be playable

  2. It crashes once every chapter near the end, this means you that to finish the game I have had to play each chapter just about twice

  3. I have finished the game 5 times and have yet to get the achievement for finishing it twice.

Okay, its harsh to vote it down, i know. But hear me out.

1st) i think a game with more than overwhemlingly positive reviews can take it. so lets be honest.

2nd) Game is fun and a good idea, but it does have issues.

Now that these Main Points are out of the way, let me explain.

First off, the game is free, i’d highly recommend you trying it out if you are interessted (or even if you are not, actually) but i also want to warn people about some stuff. Its short - and i mean super super short. Like 20 mins. This isnt bad, lots of free games are pretty short.

Lots of things are quite funny about this game.

First and foremost, searching through the few games published by this developer you’ll read about Legacy of Medieval (is this even English?) which has a precise release date: November 25th, 2021.

I’m writing as of the first half of 2018, so well.. at least we’ve got some precision here. Not the usual “within some months” or simply “in arrivo” (wondering how’s translated that in English, since I use the Steam client in Italian.. probably like “incoming, we don’t know when but eventually it will become purchasable”). No, we’ve got to wait for 4 years but surely it will be worth it.

This game is a masterpiece. Might be a little tough for you noobs but my highscore is 98, beat that :)))).

P.S. I got this game for 50cents, quite the steal for such an amazing game tbh.

This game could easily be put out of early access. It is just that amazing just add a few more feature and it will be perfected, this game gets a 10/10 on how good it is.

Cloud Chasers - Journey of Hope

Cloud Chasers - Journey of Hope

Cloud Chasers is a text-based adventure that incorporates survival elements, map exploration, and a flying mini-game. I think the game is pretty decent when it comes to resource management and storytelling, although the controls for the glider are a bit wonky. The goal is to get across the desert which includes 5 separate levels with randomly generated events. If one of your characters dies, you start over. However, the game is not particularly hard as I was able to beat it on the second try (in less than 1 hour on normal). Since many of the achievements are attached to unique events, it does have some replay value because you can’t get everything in one run.

At $4 this is a good game. Perma death rogue lite, FTL-lite, prequel to the excellent Airheart. However, it has very little action (passive glider flying avoiding bad buys and their bullets) to collect water aka cash.

I completed it in 4 hours and don’t really feel compelled to play again soon. There are items that are worthless except for fufilling dialogue options. There are a few basic upgrades for your glider that make the water collection mini game much easier to almost trivial when the gilder is fully upgraded.

0.1 hrs, that’s right. But I’ve seen enough. This game is lacking in every aspect, from gameplay to graphics to controls. I took one look and ran -you should do the same… for now. If the devs do something quick and I decide to give it another shot, I’ll make sure to update this review.

Getting a game started up is far more difficult that it needs to be. The UI is terrible. The controls don’t work. What a shame as this looked right up my street, but the lack of any developer activity on the discussion boards just ONE day after their game released says it all really. Such a disappointment.

Sorry guys, it’s a no from me…

FANTASTIC until it chokes at level 37 in master mode. Bummer.

Real player with 45.9 hrs in game

In short: It’s a perfectly functional, if pretty cheaply-made puzzle game with zero variety, but a lot of content. I’m enjoying myself and the pricing is very fair.

In long: The game has one mechanic and one mechanic only: After 10 tutorial levels there will always be a 6x6 grid on which 2- and 3-tile blocks are arranged so they block the exit. Grabbing them with the mouse allows you to slide them along their length-axis. You need to cleverly slide them back and forth until you’ve moved the target block (always on the third row from the top) to the right edge of the grid so you can slide it out of the exit. There is an undo button which comes in very handy on later levels. There is no time limit (and indeed no time keeping even), but there is a target number of moves on each level which seems to be based on the optimal solution (as I’ve never managed to beat it). Based on your performance you’ll be awarded 1-3 stars, but the game is thankfully very generous in this evaluation. The following move-counts all gave me the full 3 stars: 11/10, 17/15 and 25/21 while 29/24 only awarded me 2 stars. With this leeway it’s fairly easy to 3-star every level.

So here is my review on the game.If someone see my account they will know i only play left 4 dead and dont have much time for other games as im a indie dev my self.As a support from one indie to another(i dont know the developer personally but we do meet on the unreal engine forums as the engine connect us all)I decided to try this educational game and see some new horizons that shoudve been seen years ago.

As the front page says,this is a educational game for small kids age 5-12.I dont have any kids but looking at some of the puzzles i loud say 5 to 10/11 years maybe.(coud be wrong as i didnt get too far in to the game).

MY 1980’s DASHBOARD

MY 1980’s DASHBOARD

I like these kinds of racing games, they’re really fun and not many people are making them, so it’s cool to see someone is supporting this genre. Overall it controls well and it looks good, there’s only a few little complaints I have with it. For the aesthetics, when you’re playing in classic mode the speedometer isn’t pixelated, the font isn’t very good looking, and I think the background is always a snowy mountain and pine trees regardless of what level you’re on. For the gameplay there’s not much to change, drifting would be great addition because slowing down to go around a sharp turn is really unsatisfying, that’s really it. The music is empty sounding and none of the songs made me exited to drive. I think I heard all the songs, tracks don’t seem to have their own music, it just picks a random song from a little library, if I’m wrong then maybe the songs sound really similar.

This game is a throwback to the racing games of the 1980’s (hence the name).

There’s no fancy graphics, no relistic handling, no gears to worry about, just straight out race to complete each stage before the time runs out.

There are a handful of pleasant chip style tunes and sound FX, both of which can be toggled off if desired.

Control is by keyboard, or use a utility such as Xpadder to map the controls to your control stick/pad of choice.

The game is very easy to play and FUN. Good for a quick game when you have a few minutes or even an hour or two, trying to beat each stage.
