Nyaa-kuza!!
The UI, level hub, and main menu art assets are absolutely gorgeous, and it seems like there’s a lot of content to play through. There are a ton of different characters in the dialogue sequences but I don’t think it gets to the point of being overwhelming. I also really enjoy certain aspects of the combat, like choosing between different kinds of weapons (including a catzooka??!), and the falling clothesline; I hope there’s more interactive environments like that. It’s so obvious that hours and hours of love went into the making of this game.

I love the art style of the menu and character portraits as well as the music, however the sprites for the fight section just don’t really match everything else. In fight segments, I found you can easily just push against enemies and swing your katana at them which prevents them from attacking back. The boss fights however gave a better fight.
Personally, I think it would work better with a non pixel-like look for the fight segments and change the fights to just boss fights, each with their own moveset as even on Hard, the regular enemies were no threat at all.

Entropic Decay
“The definition of entropic is having a tendency to change from a state of order..to a state of disorder…"
Entropic Decay is a lovingly crafted linear first person shooter driven by narrative, puzzles, combat arenas, and horror sequences. It takes inspiration from Valve’s games, with its use of environmental story telling and pacing between enemy encounters, striking a balance between combat and atmosphere. Think the atmosphere of a slow-burn horror inspired walking simulator fused with movement and combat options of a shooter…
Some time in the future, a signal is detected carrying a small meteor. The signal is tracked, and the crash site investigated on impact. A mineral is found. Astrobioligist’s are amazed to find a living pathogen inside the mineral. The pathogen is extracted and experimented on, the findings indicate agressive cell growth when in contact with other organisms….dead or alive. Rapid cell mutation causes a rabies like disease. Anything infected with the pathogen becomes a hive-minded aggressor to everything not infected like itself. The pathogen spreads and envelopes the world. Turning civilisation into an overgrown, decaying husk of a contorted take on the nature we know. The decay and despair is juxtaposed with beauty, as plant life flourishes due to the pathogens effect on cell growth, and everything man made returns to nature, but rises again with a twisted skew. The last bastion of humanity are elitist’s, deploying the military to kill anyone on sight who aren’t in uniform. Military death squads roam in packs, taking orders for food and protection from the pathogen, while trading their humanity.
You awaken in a facility, fumbling for hazy memories of before the place you find yourself in. Journey through a world foreign to all but the mutated, and find a place free from decay and entropy at any cost…
Cunning, reactive A.I - The soldiers in Entropic Decay don’t mess around. They react to grenades, can hear you, take cover, flee, and throw their own grenades. The mutated work in packs, can hear you running and will roam the area you were last seen. The military will shoot the mutated on sight, but taking them down is no easy task, even for the well trained.
A variety of mutated to fight against - Currently there are over ten different mutated to contend with. Ranging from agile spider mutants and dogs, to hulking tanks weilding lead pipes.
Puzzles to break up combat sequences - Puzzles and narrative pieces are used to keep the player engaged to avoid simply being one type of genre and keep things fresh and dynamic.
Physics interaction - Interact with the world with physics puzzles, and deceive enemies by throwing objects or craft a devious trap by arranging explosives in your environment to detonate on an unsuspecting foe.
Stealth, A.I and how they interact - Distract your foes by throwing an object or bring them closer to setup an ambush with a whistle, or simply sneak by and avoid combat all together. Use your wits and the environment and the A.I will respond allowing emergent gameplay and tactical options.
Narrative driven gameplay - The story will be told through the environment with the player merely an observer of things outside it’s control. Find notes, audio logs, and data entries to piece together the collapse of society and the scientific ambition that caused it.

The Vale: Shadow of the Crown
I’m a long time gamer and someone who has seen pretty much everything when it comes to RPGs so imagine my surprise when I found something that offers a unique gaming experience! While this is an RPG, it’s also in a category of its own in terms of mechanics and that’s hard to do in this day and age.
Whether you’re blind or sighted the game has a lot to offer, it tests your ability to perceive the world through sound alone (use a headset!) Your success of failure depends on your ability to recognise the direction and distance of different sounds and respond accordingly.

This is a very unique title and I will start this review by applauding the concept!
If more games like this gets developed and expanded upon, I’ll be slightly less panicked by the thought of loosing my sight one day..
But I think there are things to improve on:
I feel like the difficulty is too low at first; those super slow charge-up roars, like every enemy is doing a Frostie’s commercial, it felt almost condescending. Of course, later on, when a thousand things are happening at once, they’re a welcome variety, but I feel like they should learn pretty quickly to not use such an over-telegraphed attack? But maybe that’s just a necessary narrative compromise for the game to exist, like the fact that we’re never attacked from behind…

Serious Sam… with a weird girl following you around
Pros: Good graphics
Gun modifications
Open World
The bullet-time is pretty dope
Some RPG elements
Cons: The RPG elements (skills, leveling, etc.) can be a lot better
Mindless waves of enemies spawning all around you
Needs more guns (like a sniper, shotgun, hand cannon, etc.)
Enemies have aim-bot like a mofo
The building mechanic needs work, as it’s unwieldy
Is it the best game ever? No… but is Serious Sam the best game ever? No, it’s not either. I’d really just compare this game to being a slightly worse Serious Sam… so for the price, it’s good if you’re looking for a game similar to Serious Sam.

Its hard to give a review for this game as i did receive it for free via gift purchase from my brother and also this a game made by a small team and by what i can see and feel when playing the game they did not have a AAA budget.
So i finished the game on the pro skill level took me just over 7hrs to finish but keep in mind i have played tons of first person shooters and tend to finish games quite quick. I liked the game it has some frustrating moments which i will get too but overall its quite decent and for $20 bucks aussie dollars its not bad value.
