This game is beautiful and has an awesome concept. The music, visuals and all are just amazing, but I do have a list here with the problems I have that can potentially fix this.

-Better Key placement like E, Enter, the use of the mouse and mouse wheel for combat, as for the combat system is hard to use against the enemies.

-Shorter Intro just so we can start the game faster.

-Allow us to skip scenes.

-Allow us to save early in the game.

-The block that acts as a platform needs a bit of a speed up.

It’s free so give it a try, but definitely has some issues.

Pros:

  • unique style and story

  • somewhat unique gameplay

  • atmosphere

Cons:

  • controls are not terrible but not the best

  • subtitles (translations are far from perfect, but understandable)

  • played half an hour and then quit, wanted to continue and had to restart the game because apparently it didn’t save

ITALIANO

Gioco appena iniziato, ma scrivo una recensione, o meglio una prima impressione, dato che non ve ne sono altre, perlomeno nelle lingue da me scelte.

Altro motivo che mi ha spinto a dare un giudizio al titolo, seppur non completo ovviamente, è la sua qualità generale e a mio avviso la buona realizzazione di tutti i vari aspetti, semplici e non troppo pretenziosi, ma davvero ben congegnati e dalla qualità che sicuramente ripaga del costo del gioco.

Innanzitutto ottima pixel graphics, in particolare resa ancor più attraente dall’uso dei colori e dallo stile dell’ambientazione.

Impossible Mission II

Impossible Mission II

I have 2 Questions:

  1. How do i quit the game ( with which button?). I use windows button…

  2. How do I move horizontally on the sliding steps?

By the way, the sound fx and the music in the game are not good as the original one :(. I hope an update would come to improve…

Joy the Pug

Joy the Pug

A pug-tastic game. It’s a sweet and short adventure of Joy the Pug trying to save the world from Space Kittens. There are 20 levels in which you need to jump over obstacles and try not to die. I admit, some levels were frustrating as hell (that’s the idea, right?) and I almost gave up, but kept on going because I was having a laugh at the same time. The puns were cute, Joy was cute, and the music is addictive.

The game probably needs polish here and there but, knowing that the budget was limited and it was done by a very small team, I am pleased with what they created. I hope we’ll get to see more games from them in the near future!

Aerannis

Aerannis

Aerannis is a Metroidvania platformer set in the Bulgarian city of Plovdiv. With the rest of the world having been more or less destroyed and depopulated, what remains in Plovdiv is a dystopian and authoritarian post-revolutionary society in which all men have been forced to transition to women through hormone replacement therapy, and are for this reason discriminated against by the populace and government at large, being negatively denoted as “Snowflakes” The game sees you take control of Ceyda Fahri, an assassin, and more or less focuses around Cedya’s plight as a hired gun in Plovdiv.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

So, funny story. I saw the KS for Aerannis and thinking hey, dystopian metroidvania w/a trans lady protagonist? :allears: ….but I couldn’t back it at the time, so I forgot about it til I stumbled onto a 50% off coupon. Pretty soon I heard vague iffy things and that V ETHICAL BACKER CONTENT got shoved into the game and i suddenly got suuuuper apprehensive about my purchase, but i figured hey, i should at least give it a chance, right?

NOPE WRONG

This is a post-feminist dystopia where “listen and believe” (as in the Anita Sarkeesian quote - ‘one of the most radical things you can do is to actually believe women when they tell you about their experiences’) shows up in the same cycle of wackyyyy turbofeminist dystopian PSAs as “CAREFUL, MEN EXIST” and “zero tolerance, zero thought, it’s so easy” and something about trangst.

Ghost 1.0

Ghost 1.0

Game Overview

Ghost 1.0 is an indie metroidvania that is set on a sci-fi world where robots and machinery are becoming a trend to humanity, whatever the purpose for them may be.

Your mission is to infiltrate the Nakamura Space Station and steal their Artificial Intelligence algorithms.

Real player with 50.8 hrs in game

Ghost 1.0 is one of the best modern Metroidvanias you can buy and definitely sits alongside Axiom Verge as a standout of the recently quite crowded genre. Unlike Axiom Verge however which follows the formula to the letter Ghost 1.0 finds its own way and throughout the course of the game constantly throws in surprises and breaks conventions that really make it stand out.

The premise of Ghost 1.0 sees 2 hackers hire a mysterious agent (you) in order to infiltrate the Nakamura Space station in order to learn its secrets. Ghost is an agent capable of taking on the form of an electronic ghost and taking over Androids at will allowing you to control your main android body or a number of other androids around the station and it is this mechanic that really shines through as the game’s unique selling point.

Updated: Implants, outfits, version and endings

If you’ve read this review before and rated it, I’m sorry but I had to re-post it to rectify things.

It looks like I was mistaken earlier abou mission updates and the game is currently only sold as ‘‘Enhanced version’’ so this reviews is totally up-to-date. Also I didn’t know we could download 3 outfits DLC for free - it triggers a quest right to the Industrial Zone area. This isn’t informed too well because it is quest finding. Last but not least important are the ‘‘consequences’’ for quests and implants, the replay factor I previously told you never included the body augmentations. The impact it can have on the game are really cool. Endings aren’t so satisfying as the game but consequences are indeed there. So let my redemption come.

Review: Dex

Wake up Dex! The complex is after you! My name is Raycast, I hacked into your network to give you some guidance. What you see outside is Harbor Prime, a dystopian mega town, covered with darkness and smoke. But there is no time for you, use the cyberspace to disable the door and make your way out of there. Sneak through the sewers, get into Fixers Hope and find a man called Decker, he will surely help you.

If my introduction made you feel like Matrix met V for Vendetta and the main theme of the Shinra Corp. makes it’s way back into your head, you are in the right mood for this game. As you already noticed, Dex is your name and survival is your aim. A hacker called Raycast makes your sweet neckplate-wearing body move, right into the arms of some retired hacker and his over-cautious friend. They present you a story about a powerful AI, named Kether, that got created by The Complex, a Megacorp, in order to reach control of every network ever created. That may sound like a fairytale but doesn’t explain exactly why you were chased and what the famous hacker Raycast wants from you.
