10mg: Locked In

10mg: Locked In

So it doesn’t have a pause menu. So the only way to exit the game is to complete it or force close it. Which is weird. I enjoy the 2 player nature of it. However it is only a 20 minute game. I noticed a couple spelling mistakes in the text. Nothing that makes it unreadable but the occasional missing “the”

The plot I won’t spoil but I find it kinda meh. One of the characters solutions is wildly irresponsible finance wise and money is a plot point though. There are better visual novels out there. Overall I can’t recommend this game. It is part of a 10mg bundle so don’t let it dissuade you.

Crash Time 2

Crash Time 2

“I don’t have any argument but I don’t like it !” -Bad reviews from a random lowbob. 0/10

“Like Skyrim with Polizei.” -IGN 2/10

“Polizei, oktoberfest, ausfarht, dummkopfs.” -Medic 11/10

So, first of all, this game doesn’t deserve all those bad reviews. Everyone seems to have played this game for only 15 minutes, and honestly, you can’t judge a game within 15 minutes. This game reviews are clearly manichaean ; you have two possibilities according to Steam reviews : you completly disregarded it because you played a few minutes and no minigun spawned on your car or you will find this game “somewhat OK”. In my honest opinion, I really liked this game. Of course, there is tons of better game in that game style, like the FlatOut series, but this game got a decent amount of pros. Let me make a list of the pros, the cons and the neutrals.

Usually I finish game first and write review later. But this game is special. Ingame counter tells me that I have completed 42% of game and I just have to describe my last mission. As a warning.

There is tl:dr part after story - you can skip it if you value your time.

You choose part of the city where you will respawn, then car (marked with red flag which means that there is availible mission for it). So far so good.

Voice in radio tells about kidnapped bus. Voice acting is terrible but I don’t mind - they don’t talk too much. Story is garbage - realy. We know that blue bus was kidnapped… And this is our only info - so we chase nearest red dot on the map. Bus driver acts like he was crazy. Drives on wrong lane/in the middle of the road. He’s speeding and make turns that would seriously harm people inside. I think it’s the one… and nope. Apparently this is how bus is supposed to behave on road. Whatever - after 10 minutes I have found the right one. Kidnappers took only one passenger and drived away already. Luckilly (no spoilers - but story is really bad - just more driving and bad voice acting). Now I collect money (?) chase my kidnapped partner (and kidnapped girl) and switch cars with bandit (did I said that story is bad?). There is bomb inside new car so I have to travel 1,5 km fast (some plot garbage).

Tip Top

Tip Top

Fun climbing game where you have to balance speed and stamina to reach the top. Your stamina meter depletes as you climb but certain rocks have a better hold so the stamina meter drains slower while holding these rocks. These are crucial for maintaining your stamina. You can restore stamina by using your powder bag but every time you use the powder your total stamina meter gets smaller. Each hand has their own stamina meter. Traversing the mountains is fun and challenging. The controls work well here and the game is pretty polished.

Nice feeling, fun climbing game with original and well thought out game mechanics. Reaching the top is challenging, but it feels all the more rewarding once you do. Would definitely recommend to try it out

Super Cable Boy

Super Cable Boy

There’s a lot of decent precision platformers out there, but this one is more than that. It really stands out. It plays good, the music is surprisingly good, and the level design is really top notch. Honestly, everything about this game feels really polished and thought-out. It just clicks.

Super Cable Boy manages to keep your interest by giving you access to additional abilities every once in a while. You can switch between unlocked abilities at any time in any level, and chain them together. Completely optional collectibles either require precise execution or using your abilities in creative ways (or both).

This game feels very familiar, as it clearly takes inspiration from other popular indie platformers. Out of the games I’ve personally played, I think it matches Celeste most closely with its gameplay loop. I was also reminded of Fez with some of the stylistic choices. Having finished it today, I can confidently recommend the game with flying colors to anyone who is a fan of the 2D platforming genre, even going so far as to say Super Cable Boy can contend with other popular 2D platforming gems on Steam like Celeste, The End is Nigh, Dustforce DX, Super Meat Boy, VVVVVV, and Sonic Mania.
