Bushfires: Animal Rescue

Bushfires: Animal Rescue

Another one of those spread awareness game… this one is about bush fire / forest fire, probably inspired by the recent fire in Australia… but still a good idea to spread awareness and knowledge for the younger generations.

At first glance, one would thought this game is made for kids, but after trying it myself, all i can say is the difficulty balance needs to be lowered if you want kids to enjoy the game. It’s even a bit hard for the adults, and i mean it’s actually needing the players to memorize the map and plan a strategy on the go type of high difficulty. If you plan to sell this game to the adult, then you might need to reconsider the overall design in graphics and all that to a more adult-like design to tell them this isn’t a game for kids.

I am giving some leeway with this review since it is an early-access game.

Overall, I would recommend this game. The gameplay and concept appear quite simple, but it is in-fact quite a challenging game. While you are attempting to rescue the various animals, you are also under a strict time-limit. Balancing the two means that you have to make on the spot decisions about how many animals you can afford to rescue (while still making it out in time).

There are certainly some issues with the game. The lack of camera controls (the camera is fixed to behind the vehicle) can make it rather frustrating at times. Both the landscape and fire can obscure your view of the car, and there have been a few times that I’ve ended up driving right into fire & dying because I couldn’t see where I was going. I think the net-throwing mechanic needs some refinement, along with the animal movements. Animals sometimes get stuck (allowing for easy capture), or glitch up to the top of the cliff (preventing capture). Capturing birds is rather difficult - you almost have to guess - as the pointer (which shows you where the net will land) clips through the rocks that the birds land on.

SEARCH ALL - ANIMALS

SEARCH ALL - ANIMALS

This is a very cute game, I enjoyed it. Some item are very small, but they have that great magnifier to enlarge, and You can get it huge so that You wont miss anything.

The game has a save, so if You can’t finish it in one setting, it will save Your progress till You come back to continue it.

The Developers are great, responding fast if there is any problems, hope They bring some more games like this on the market, and I’ll buy them.

Challenging and chill at the same time. I like the music a lot, even though it is a short loop playing over and over–it’s perfect background. You WILL use the magnifier in order to find everything, but it isn’t too difficult to achieve 100%. It took me a half hour to find everything, which is my only complaint: I wish there were more scenes to play! I sure enjoyed what was here though, and will definitely look for more from this developer!

100 hidden cats 2

100 hidden cats 2

As usual, this was easy enough until the last few cats, and it took most of my time playing trying to find that last elusive feline. If you like object-finding puzzles like this, you need to get it so it can drive you up the wall with its cheerful boppy music, challenge you with the amazing graphics, and you can get sidetracked with the incredible imagination of the artist, and kick yourself when you do finally discover that last remaining cat, thats sitting just in front of your nose! 10/10.

Pros and Cons are written first. Overall review is posted below that.

~ SIDE NOTE ~ It is rare when I don’t suggest games, and is actually the first time I have disliked a game. ~

First things first, ONLY BUY THIS GAME ON SALE (when it’s literally only 86 cents - NOT worth it on full price)

pros:

  • cute game for cat lovers

  • some cats are actually kind of difficult to find

  • moving objects add for more difficulty in finding cats

cons:

  • there’s only one board / puzzle to play

  • puzzle doesn’t reset after completion (yes, u can reset achievements, but after that, its super easy to find all cats again… the board needs to regenerate at random for more fun)

Just like the others, this game is so fun and quirky. Also, please excuse the play time….I kept the game open and didn’t realize it was still running. Anyway, the artwork is superb and those dogs really lover to hide. For a fun and relaxing game, this one is one of the best. The music was a little repetetive, but a quick hit of the mute key fixed that. Quick 100%

I found this game from the 100 Hidden Cats game.

My review is pretty much the same: I played this game on my laptop at work (I work with my brother). The music ended up growing on us, but I still wish there were options to change the volume or to mute it. The artwork was really cute and it was a decent way to spend 99 cents and 15 minutes.

Unlike in the hidden cat game,

! parts of the scene are upside down or rotated which I thought was a cool idea.

Moonglow Bay

Moonglow Bay

A really fun and relaxing game.

I’m a bit sad it has such a mixed review score.

There’s not really a big challenge to anything you do ingame, however to me this was perfectly fine.

I wanted to play a really laid back game, which is exactly what Moonglow Bay seemed to be.

And I got even more.

You can just chill, catch a few fish, cook, collect pieces of the story behind your character and the citizens of the bay.

You’ll progress through quite the variety of biomes and there’s lots of interesting fish to find, that all have nice little myths the people of the bay affiliate them with.

I really can’t recommend the game in it’s current state. There’s just too many bugs ranging from small visual things to currently unfixable softlocks. I’m currently stuck, unable to progress through a bossfight because it simply won’t continue. I see too many other issues like this in the game’s discord as well. Keyboard support seems like a very last moment addition; on launch, the controls were wonky and you couldn’t even save your game. They updated the controls, but there’s still no way to rebind anything. The game also doesn’t use the mouse, which is strange for a game with analog input in sections. I really wish this game had had some sort of early access/open beta period to iron out the more obvious and game-breaking issues before launch.

Kill Them With Cuteness

Kill Them With Cuteness

Awesome for a first game for a single dev! Great level design definitely makes me nostalgic for platformers of the early 2000’s (Crash Bandicoot, Jak & Daxter, Spyro, etc.). The voice actors deserve an award for their contributions.

Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an hour to kill. Now all that’s left to do is wait for the GOTY edition to drop.

Bought this game thinking it might be a bit of novel fun. What I was presented with was a buggy, incompetent and unfinished mess. Asking any money for this is robbery, not even worth $4.50. Aiming mechanic is beyond broken, objective unclear, enemies look shit. BAD!
