Biped

Biped

Biped is a fun, cute co-op and solo game. I mention co-op first because it’s really designed around playing with another person. However, you can still enjoy solo play. The controls are very innovative and novel. The first place I ever came across using dual sticks to control separate motion was from a tank arcade game back in the 1990s. The control is a bit confusing at first, but then becomes very intuitive rapidly.

The only critical critiques I have about this game, are:

1. The camera

2. Only co-op host seems to get stars that both players got playing together.

I can’t really join the euphoric chorus in a lot of reviews here. Sure, it’s an alright local coop game all in all, but a long way from a masterpiece in my opinion, mostly because of the tedious movement system (you control each foot separately, hell if your controller got mechanical issues) and the sudden difficulty spikes in between. Sometimes levels were easy and fun, other levels were simply frustrating or annoying (already the first one), especially if you try to collect all the stars (good advice: DON’T, because you need the ones from the bonus levels for any achievement as well). I wouldn’t even call it a puzzle game, as coordination and agility challenges based around those leg movements and the according physics are predominant. The main story also is rather short, only 8 levels including the tutorial, and has rather few variations (mostly the standard, like river, ice, forest etc.). Instead, after finishing, the game offers several bonus challenge levels as mentioned which really are extremely hard, and this is no joke, they’re truly diabolical. To be honest, we gave up after a few tries, yeah, that’s how much fun they were. By the way, I also finished it in single player, which is surprisingly much easier and features a bit different level designs, but of course is short, too. And before I forget, there are indeed slight customization possibilities by buying some funny hats in the shop with coins you find during the levels, but the achievement to buy them all is rather grindy and requires to at least repeat the tutorial 30 additional times.

100ft Robot Golf

100ft Robot Golf

This felt more like an anime with interactive bits than a game. At several points matches are ended early with the match finishing in the cutscene. How you do in the matches has no bearing on the story, either, and you’re constantly forced to change character. Each character has a different special ability, but in several cases I couldn’t work out what they did, and it was never explained. I’m sure the anime part is enjoyable if you’re familiar with anime, but I’m not- I just wanted to play golf with 100 foot robots.

Wanted to write something longer, but haven’t played too much and wanted to keep it the review digestable.

I recommend this game with the stipulation that you buy it for $15 or less and enjoy the McElroy’s or cheesy humor meant to mimic the style of 80s/90s anime involving mech pilots, as well have having some friends to play with.

The gameplay is standard enough (it’s golf), only now you’re in mechs and can destroy buildings and try to hinder each other from making shots. Controls are mapped well and feel varying between mechs but are a bit cryptic, since they aren’t really explained anywhere so it’s more trial and error when you first pilot a new one. Special weapons feel nice as well, though, again, they aren’t explained too well. Physics might be a bit too floaty, though we do golf on the Moon and under the sea, so I suppose those are the reasons for it.

Rock of Ages 2: Bigger & Boulder™

Rock of Ages 2: Bigger & Boulder™

Have you ever found yourself playing bowling and thought to yourself: “gosh, this is fun and all, but what if my goal was to avoid the pins instead of knocking them over, and the pins were placed by my enemies for some reason”. Well, do I have the perfect game for you! Rock of Ages 2 is a game where you play as a famous character from history, commanding your mighty boulders to smash down your opponent’s front door and crush him with your turgid rock. If Monty Python, bowling and a real-time strategy had a threesome and made a baby, Rock of Ages 1 would be the result, while Rock of Ages 2 is more of the same, just more of it and more balanced.

My review after the first playthorugh on Normal difficulty:

I’m a huge fan of this idea and loved the first game!

But this game feels quite different compared to the first one, but not in a bad way.

Here is why!

1st: You are way faster!

This means that corners are really annoying and in most maps best chokepoint to bring your enemy to a hold.

But it also means that avoiding obstacle of your opponment often is a bad choice.

Simply because you gain so much speed in such a few seconds that it doesn’t matter that you crush through 2-4 layers of walls before. Also it is more beneficial to destroy the obstacle for your further runs, so just ram through nearly everything in your path(exept animals, they will stop you)

Followed Primal Pursuit through early development and managed to snag a tester key! (Have now Purchased)

I Played this game with my Niece and Nephew, both them and myself had an absolute blast playing this game!

The animal racing style and themes are an awesome spin on the the classic arcade racer, with each animal (A total of 8) having a set of 3 unique and interesting abilities of their own. These abilities each of the animals possess, alongside the diverse range of maps that contain tricky obstacles such as the big boulders thrown from giants and hefty spike traps, really helped make our races more interesting and broke that monotony you’d have in most other games in this genre. My niece was smitten with the ‘chubby walrus,’ and wouldn’t change from him all afternoon.

Coffin Dodgers

Coffin Dodgers

This game was reviewed using a code sent by the developer.

Coffin Dodgers is a kart racing type game that was released in July 2015 developed by Milky Tea Studios.

The gameplay in Coffin Dodgers is something which I found to be something of a strange one. The actual kart racing looks to be really fun from the screenshots and video trailer, but when you get into the game, it is just infuriating. I have played my fair share of kart racing games, and you expect to be screwed over at times by the rest of the players, but it is beyond a joke in this game. It is almost like you are better off being in last place until the last five seconds of the race because if you are anywhere near first place, you WILL get gimped on, and when you do, you will go right back down to last place due to the amount of people that will be aiming straight up your backside with rockets. People may think I am just ratting on the game because I am bad at it, you may think that, but I actually finished the game fairly quickly and on the harder difficulties. I then tried it on the lower settings and it is exactly the same; completely unfair advantage that the AI has over the player.

Rock of Ages

Rock of Ages

Rock of Ages is a charming, humorous, and highly original game.

The basic premise is this: you control a boulder rolling across a twisted battlefield of ramps, obstacles, and enemy traps. Your aim is to destroy your opponent’s gate.

As you destroy your opponent’s defenses, you accumulate money to spend on building upgrades. These upgrades can be either single-use power-ups for your boulder to make it stronger or more deadly. Or, you can spend the money on defenses like elephants, dynamite, and catapults that can knock your opponent’s boulder off the map. You get to place these obstacles wherever you want on the map.

Rock of ages is a game about rolling down a hill; to squish a little man, literally.

In Rock of Ages, there is a very minor story, hardly relating to the game. This isnt a bad thing because the game doesn’t need a story to be enjoyed, however the story is humorous.

The core gameplay aspect of Rock of Ages is rolling your rock down a slope riddled with defences in order to smash down an enemy gate. The opponents, are not only people from history, also attack your gate and the player must build their own defences in order to slow down or stop the other rock. You gain in game gold in order to pay for defences, and to upgrade your rock.
