BATTLESCAR: Punk Was Invented By Girls

Got it for 56 cents as a part of a bundle. Still got disappointed.

To be fair, it is well executed in terms of visual storytelling and cinematography. Some really creative sets there!

Unfortunately, these can’t do much if the narrative and the main characters are bland and uninteresting. The abrupt and undercooked ending made the already underwhelming story - a complete waste of time for me.

Also, it is an oculus exclusive, has a good amount of gender politics at its core, and if your chapter gets interrupted, like USB disconnection (thanks AMD) you need to suffer through the whole chapter without the option to skip forward.

As a VR artist, I really enjoyed this experience. It is quite daring in terms of the format of narrative and also mixing a kind of “book” feel into the VR aesthetic. I would recommend it for any VR artists as a source of inspiration.

The story is not the best however, a bit tacky and shallow but still enjoyable.

Disappointed that it took much longer to get on Steam than on Oculus Store and also that they only support Oculus headsets, especially since there are almost no interactions (any?), so it’s not like supporting controllers of other headsets would’ve been difficult.

So I am re-reviewing this after it has been updated. The game has immensely improved with the changes. I was actually able to complete the whole game. The clown improvement has actually made the first part a lot more scary since he can pretty much pop up anywhere. For the second part I would say the statue would be more threatening if she moved faster but she did jump scare me a few times when I would turn around not expect her to be that close to me. Also the highlighted items allowed me to find how to proceed past that section. The last section was creepy for the first few minutes but grew a bit old pretty quick. Overall I think the game was fun in this new state and worth a play through plus the developer was willing to listen to the feedback and improve the game which is a big plus. I still think $10 is a bit on the high end of a price for this though but if you want to spend that much or if it’s on sale then go for it. If you want to see my first play through before the update you can check out my video below.

Incaved

In Incaved you explore ever expanding- and changing cave systems, building an underground community of survivors, making gut wrenching decisions, and fending off carnivorous mutated animals and other survivors, doing the same as you. With your trusty gear, your gas mask, grappling hook and hefty arsenal of improvised weapons, you’ll constantly have to adapt to come out on top in whichever situation this wretched world throws at you.

Gameplay

With the cave systems changing after every death, you’ll have to improvise to survive any possible situation with equipment you manage to find, in this roguelite experience. Interconnected levels and progressive unlocking of new weapons, items and story events keeps you motivated to explore your surroundings. Every death propels time, bringing your comrades closer to their potential death and changing up how the levels look and play out.

Features

  • The high replayability value a roguelite offers, with a big emphasis on exploring an interconnected world, including the thrill of permadeath, making each move count even more.

  • An enormous cast of interesting characters, each with their own backstory and motives.

  • Expanding platforming manoeuvres, including wall jumps, vaults and a grappling hook.

  • Hand drawn pixel art, combined with a realistic atmosphere.

  • Perform combo’s, dodge, block and parry in 2D Souls-like action.

Story

After nukes were dropped by the mistakes of higher men, lower class people need to find shelter in the cave systems nearby. Quickly scavenging anything they can on their way there. You play as one of many, who’ve lost their all and only want one thing: to survive for long enough to see their loved ones again. Chances of survival drastically start decreasing, as food and water supplies start running dry, mutated animals and infections start plaguing the caves, and survivors start turning on each other. Who can be trusted? How much longer can the aggressive mutates animals be contained? Is it even worth staying in these wretched dark caves, or is making your way to the wasteland above a safer option, as impossible as it sounds?

Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance

Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance

I can’t belive this game is in Steam! My first hack and slash game of my childhood

Good story, gore combat, finishers, weapon upgrades, variety of enemies, etc

And not only that, they added trading cards and achievements so it’s more enjoyable

The negative thing is that mouse players are fu*ked. There is no support for mouse. It seems like the company who decided to re-launch this old title (Acclaim entertainment was the original developer) is forcing you to buy a controller lol. I remember playing this game back in 2003 with mouse without problems

I hate the controls, I can barely change them. I´m a WASD player, I cannot play well with the arrows.

UPDATE: I managed to change the arrows to WASD, but no mouse for the attacks. I assigned other keys for the attacks. It´s playable now, anyway.

I only wish the movement vectors were attached to my view, not the gladiator´s (much like in drones, where you can choose which vector the drone will obey). For example, if the character is facing left, and I want him to keep going left, I have to press forward, not left. It´s annoying. Sometimes, in the middle of a huge brawl, it´s very hard to make the gladiator go the direction I want.

HUMANS CONNECT

HUMANS CONNECT

HUMANS CONNECT

The story is focused on the humans bloodline to the mythologies that

existed 1000 years ago. An experiment occurred in the modern times where

Humans would gain supernatural powers because of their connections to those

mythologies that existed. Julia’s journey is to discover the creator of this

experiment and the origins of those mythologies, however she is confronted by

Anubis like character “Inpu The Jackal”.

In the game the player can choose to play one of the two characters and play

the same story mode but in different time and order. Each character has his own perspectives and goals

in the same story.

In Julia’s story, the player has to rely on engagement to progress with the story.

While the Nightwolf’s story rely on exploration and stealth to progress with the story.

Both characters shares a common enemy which is “Inpu The Jackal”, he currently has

an unknown background and its up to the player to discover who he is and what is his

true objective. Are you up for the challenge?!

The Game’s main idea is to let the player feel like he is engaging, feeling and

relating to the characters not just playing them. Engage, Explore, CONNECT

and mostly… have FUN!
