The Drained Goddess

The Drained Goddess

Spoiler Alert: Many enemies are either avoidable or just hidden. I didn’t realize this until Chapter 2. So I went back to the Prologue and just as I expected, both wasp swarms and the nest itself can be destroyed. Same to the boss in Chapter 1. But it really confused me in Chapter 2. The mission journal does provide some clues to hidden enemies. But I believe that most players don’t even know there is a full featured boss in the graveyard. Clues are confusing and it needs several props to unlock the boss, let alone that the boss can’t be defeated without weakened first. I suggest the developer to inform players about this optional enemy mechanism since the Prologue, and make clues more understandable.

Fallen Knight

Fallen Knight

2nd Review

In additional after I have played for very long with a series of updates, I still find bugs which are very critical in my opinion. Because they are not just bugs of false visual or dead pixels, they are bugs that our character or bosses are frozen and we are not able to continue playing. This forces player to restart, and that counts as 1 death. One more thing that irritates me, but not that crucial, is that this game is develop by Thai developers but Thai subtitle/text is bad and confusing. Some are like they are translated by Google Translation from English subtitle/text. What the…!!? Was it supposed to start from Thai and translated to other language? Or even it started from English, you developers should be able to prove-reading it better than this.

TL;DR: Pretty and has potential in concept, but sloppily done. Get it on sale

Fallen Knight’s initial trailer seems to sell a very nice looking and crisp side scrolling dash n' slash with a sort of morality system in choosing “the path of violence” or “the honorable path” while the description calls it “Dark-Souls like”. While the visuals are quite nice, the gameplay is actually mediocre side scrolling dash n' slash with a somewhat janky counter system and absolutely nothing about it could be reasonably considered “souls like”, which might be more reasonable given that this seems like a port of a mobile game.

Dark Abyss

Dark Abyss

I really like the potential with this game, the combat feels really nice and the dodge while a little wonky is quite versatile, the combo attacks are awesome and the parkour challenge for the 4th heart slot is quite nice.

In the future i hope to see more enemy variation, higher quality sound effects and a more fleshed out boss fight for the dash ability, other than that this game has really good potential and a strong foundation, keep up the work and i look forward to the next update :D

To anyone wondering at time of review the game is only about 20 minutes long AT MOST. It is very early access and is more of a tech demo. If you want to support the developer i highly recommend purchasing this.

Trials of Argolis

Trials of Argolis

I’ve done a lot of testing for this game and nearly every time was a joy (bridge boy frustrates me sometimes!! ;-;). Very fluid and smooth first-person combat with challenging bosses and fast paced action. The handpainted artwork lends a really neat aesthetic and overall it looks gorgeous. A great dynamic in play styles despite the rather simple controls and each boss has a particular gimmick to it. Lots of content and deffo worth a buy! ;_; eek

Blade Crusade

Blade Crusade

Blade Crusade, the mysterious game originally found on Osama Bin Laden’s hard drive, is now available in the west for the first time!

It is the year of our Lord XX06. Legions of skeletal warriors have risen at the behest of an unlicensed wizard in the Mirabi desert, threatening the civilized world once again. Infiltrate and ascend the wizard’s mountain fortress level by level, slay his vile menagerie of minions, and put an end to the dance macabre once and for all!

OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS

Spikes, saws, lava, automatic crossbows and all sorts of OSHA violations await you, but fear not! Weighty physics, tight controls and time manipulation let you jump, bounce and glide past obstacles with deft precision.

HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS

Fight your way through waves of enemies and unique bosses! Use your movement skills to your advantage as you outmaneuver and juggle your foes. Slide, slash, dash and parry your way to victory!

ONE DEATH IS A TRAGEDY. A MILLION DEATHS ARE A STATISTIC.

A single missed step, mistimed jump or slow reaction can mean the difference between life and death. And rest assured, there will be plenty of death!

TIME IS MONEY

Find and perfect the fastest route through each level, making sure to gather every collectible. Race against other players and work your way up the leaderboards!

Broken Lines

Broken Lines

It is an “ok” game if you have no better alternatives. The reason I gave a thumb down is because of so many super positive reviews with which I disagree and think they distort the picture here.

TACTICS / GAMEPLAY - 3/5

The challenge curve is rather flat, mostly without any complex or demanding situations. Maps are all very similar in terms of combat challenges (very similar setups of obstacles, terrain, challenges etc).

One of the top reviewers here complained about pulling extra pods in Xcom due to bad mechanics - IT IS THE SAME HERE! Once you spot 1 enemy then the time does not stop when you discover more enemies. So you end up pulling more and more enemies and your soldiers once told to go somewhere, will never abort the order even if going straight into the enemy guns.

Real player with 37.0 hrs in game

I would recommend Broken Lines for those seeking a simpler, yet more raw/ intense tactics gaming experience than XCom. If you’re just a fan of third person tactic games and want to try something with a neat tactical twist, Broken Lines is a great purchase.

Differences from your average squad based tactics game:

  • Biggest difference is the 8 second command increments. You provide your soldiers a series of orders to execute in sequence, then let time flow and see how they worked out.

  • Set characters means being able to bake in things like how your soldiers work together or interact based on your back story.

Shaype

Shaype

Shaype is a fantasy role-playing game with an emphasis on player dictated character creation, combat playstyles, dialogue, and story outcomes. The ability for the player to create and develop their own character and world is at the heart of Shaype’s design, presenting diverse role-playing and alignment options.

​With Shaype, we wish to create a true role-playing game. Our focus in development is for the player to feel as though they exist in an engaging world where their decisions matter.

World

  • A major goal for Shaype is to provide an engaging setting and atmosphere. Despite the friendly artstyle, Shaype will explore dark/adult themes, allow for diverse character alignment options and pose morally grey situations in a violent land.

Player Choice

  • Gameplay will be multifaceted and reflective of the player, with significant world-changing options in dialogue, playstyle, and quests that are driven by the skillset and choices of your character.

Combat System

  • For combat, we are developing varied weapons and divisions of Magic which will each possess their own skill trees and abilities.

  • We want to provide a challenging experience that rewards the skill level of the player. Combat mechanics are designed to be easy to learn but hard to master, testing the ability of the player to find openings to strike.
