This would be a cute free game to play for a few minutes, but for a paid product ($20!!!) it would need a looot more polish.

Save Jesus

Save Jesus

4k graphics, blown away by the sound quality, the voice acting is superb. personally, one of my favorite quotes is “ya think yu can stop me? look it, ah gawt a tahme macheen!” very intricate and thought-out dialogue is one of this game’s strongest points. in addition, the plot and lore of save jesus is so complex and designed so well that its almost like you are actually there in the game saving jesus! it is an experience similar to that of smoking weed, while dying and going to heaven but learning that jesus is in trouble so you save him and then wake up wondering… “what did i eat for dinner last night?” you look over to jesus in your bed and he stares back at you and then you wake up again to find that your entire existence was actually a dream in itself. anyway, every game has its downsides as well. save jesus is no exception. one of the worst parts about this game is the lack of an easy mode, as the difficulty rivals that of dark souls. another issue is the demanding system requirements. my macintosh computer at school has trouble running this game. constant crashes and it struggles to get even 10 fps. no problems on my coughcoughsuperiorcoughcough pc though. the game is magnificent, and the sheer quality is reflected in every possible aspect. the system requirements can easily be justified for such a masterpiece. in conclusion, save jesus is a fantastic AAA title that i recommend to any fans of the popular book series “the holy bible,” based on this very game. hope this review helps!

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

I love this game! For being made by 1 person It beats a lot of AAA games in creativity. I would really like to see more games like this in the future and I will be following the game’s development closely!

I pirated this game from Google, but after playing it for a while I decided to just buy the game to support the developer bcs this game is just super fun, after just 40 hours of playing this game I can say I love it the designing of the hull and turret is simple but is still fun, I’ve already made about 20 tanks just from WW1, the only problem with this game is that it’s empty and lacking a lot of other features that I would like in the game, I understand that it’s only made by one person so I can wait for as long as possible so that he can improve this game a lot, so I’ma just list the problems I have with the game:

I have no words.

This game is truly a hidden gem. I cannot understand how this game has only around 30 reviews.

Sure the gameplay might not be that much, yet it’s still fun, but the story is just so good, I was literally excited to see how things go in diffrent paths, I got all of the 17 endings and almost all of the achievements. Nearly all details are there, even the smallest ones. There’s quite a lot of humour too.

There are so many refrences to pop culture and other games. I still cannot fathom how this game was made by ONE person, with little help from others.

This is a narrative game revolving around completing drone assemblies of spaceships made out of tetris-like pieces. The central mechanics are serviceable and make for some interesting puzzles and an alternately frustrating and satisfying experience as you try to get pieces to connect by bumping and pulling them.

Whilst that wouldn’t be enough to make a great game by itself, the narrative is the real draw here, running a pastiche of soviet-era space and sci-fi references into the exploration of various characters - and enables you to change how the story turns out as these characters vie for power and try to keep Space Force going in very trying circumstances.

Not so much a game as a second job: you can let the auto-crew do much for you but let’s face facts: the appeal of this game is how much it demands from you. Want to work out the firing solution for the 89cm ADCAP torpedo manually? Of course you do, this game was written for you.

The plotline (nasty Russians go to war with the USA for some reason) is not really developed - I’m halfway through the US campaign - BUT the opportunity to play the campaign from the Russians' perspective is a very welcome, plus you have to re-learn the entire control system, this time using the metric system.

This is the sequel to Jane’s 688(i) Hunter/Killer but now under the flag of Sonarlysts. Most features have already been mentioned in my review of 688(i) so I will try to tell only the difference between these two:

  • Higher resolution and better graphics

  • 3 plattforms to operate (688(i), Seawolf, Akula)

  • Single missions and campaigns which can be played as US or russian.

  • Use your voice to command your ship completely (navigation, firing at a certain contact etc.)

The most important part feature, which came afterwards for Sub Command, is the big SCX mod:

Alright, over the past few weeks i fell in love with this game, and here is what i can say about it as quickly as possible.

Short version : Game is a fun, quick in and out dogfighting experience with a ton of potential !

Full opinion :

This game is both exciting and filled with potential.

Similiar to other reviews on this game i must agree that the game is in early access and so a lot of things are missing (duh)

Yet even over that fact this game provides a fun and quick experience for the times when youre just kinda bored and need a quick game to play.

This game lacks polish but is quite a lot of fun. For a cold war air combat junkie it features all the planes you could want. It’s can be rather immersive sometimes.

This game feels gritty and fun if you like air combat. The first thing you will notice is the art style, being snappy and simple.

I love the damage model and the way flashes and sparks will fly off of planes being hit, I can tell some research was put in looking at real life gun camera footage.

The maps are extremely simplistic, but with all the dogfighting going on I found I didnt notice too much. The game itself is incredibly small so startup time is very quick.

A pleasant and relaxing game. I thorougly enjoyed the wonderful and whimsical artstyle that reflected the soothing gameplay that I found myself going back to the beginning to enjoy the game assets one more time.

The controls were well designed and finely tuned. I found myself swinging on the same vines repeatedly just for the fun of the swinging because of how exciting it was!

For the low cost of 2.6 USD, I found myself enjoying this game for an extended amount of time, coming back to the game over and over because of the exciting gameplay. The ending was extremely charming too, and it was a fitting end to such a great story.

The game is good, The grappling hook is really fun to play with, the platforming is really janky though but that’s the points, and it can be mastered so that’s fine. Collectable are saved, and progression is saved only in baby mode. Once you reach 50%, a faster way unlock at the bottom of the map in case you fall.

Negative points though that make my review change to a negative.

Updated changed the “world size” so you can’t really see anything 90% of the time, which make the game way harder for the one who haven’t played it before, and its still really hard for someone who played it before.

Oh how I wish i could call an arty strike on Gaijin’s head office.

Let me list the most frustrating aspects of this game:

A bit of a lengthy review but if you are really interested in this game then you should at least skim this review to get an idea of what you’re signing up for. Also the first serious review I’ve done of a game but I have been playing this for 4 years now and it’s about time I told (warned) people about it.

The devs:

Has never listened to it’s community’s suggestions or bug reports. The closest we ever got was when everyone, including the largest Youtuber Phlydaily was pushing to have parts and fire extinguishers to come for free with every vehicle, instead of making it a module to research (or spend money on). So if you get shot in the transmission, yup you cant move the rest of the match, or get shot in the barrel? Yup, you are completely useless unless you can make it to a cap point which sometimes there is only 1. Guess what… they said “no” and have since never acknowledged community suggestions since then due to the horrible PR fallout. They balance the game based off players stats in that particular vehicle. Leaving some vehicles completely broken or overpowered for months while data comes in for them to actually do something about it. Easily the most frustrating of these cases was the fact that the battle rating spread is so compressed from power creep that they couldn’t figure out what level to put the Maus at to make it competitive and balanced so they just removed it from the game. LOL yeah they barred new players from being able to research it cause they were too lazy to fix their game. They also will gladly make up stats or armor values about tanks to fit their view of what they think it should be capable of.

Okay listen.

I’ve got 2,222 hours in this game while I’m writing this. I get that it’s confusing that I’m making a negative review.

Tl;dr: This is a good game, but one of the worst, most scummy products I’ve ever seen. One that preys on people with addictive personalities in a wide spectrum of ways.

All I really need to do is explain the monetization tbh:

-Silver Lions: Silver lions are the non-premium currency for War Thunder. They are achieved passively just by played, and playing well gives a nice bonus. Winning matches massively multiplies silver lion gains (ie, if you kill 1 person in a match you lose in the planes mode you’ll get a small amount of silver lions, but even just one kill in a match you win is worth a fair amount, and to a degree this gets better the better you play). But here’s the… well… “but”. Silver lions are precisely designed so that when you first start playing the game, no matter what (ie, whether you are completely free to play, just have a premium vehicle, or have premium vehicles and a premium account) you will be getting enough silver lions to more than cover the silver lion costs of the vehicles you will have access too. Low tier vehicles cost basically nothing to repair, as do almost all premiums (and premium accounts and vehicles both massively boost silver lion income while using them). You might be seeing the problem already, but if not stick with me here. As you progress through the game, if you’re free to play you will at first quickly unlock cheap vehicles before reaching more expensive ones, then things will be slower and slower to unlock and more expensive. To be clear, all of this so far isn’t a big deal. The issue comes when you reach about 7.0 (battle rating, which is basically just a “level” for matchmaking balance) for ground forces or about 8.0 for air forces, in my experience. At this point vehicles are sluggish to unlock and extremely expensive. Buying them, training a crew slot to play them, and every modification all costs SL, but also repairing and rearming the aircraft after the battle. At the lower tiers you might not even notice this. By about 6.0 you’ll almost certainly notice this but unless you play very poorly it won’t be a major issue. You might have to take it easy right after buying a newly unlocked vehicle, but other than that you’re fine. But beyond that, certain vehicles (seemingly arbitrarily, though there’s always a long winded explanation that boils down to “balance”) cost bafflingly, ridiculously, hilariously high amounts of silver lions. If you have about 2-3 million silver lions at lower tiers, you’re golden. You can lose some of it if you have some rough matches, but you’ll be fine. At the higher tiers, you could burn through that in a day just by being unlucky. Half the time you unlock a new jet or main battle tank it’s so expensive you either can’t buy it, or can but then can’t play it because if you die before getting a kill you lose massive amounts.
