Chess Knights: High Noon

Chess Knights: High Noon

Incredible game!! This is definitely the most fun game in the Chess Knights series! I love western movies and this game has the perfect western vibe! In the other games, you could only survive, escapingfrom the enemies, but now you are a badass gunslinger and you only advance if you eliminate all enemies on the level! The puzzle continues with the same quality from Minimol games, but now we have the addition of Duel mode, which forces you to think and act very fast, just like in a real duel! I can’t wait for the full release!

I really like the games in the Chess Knights series. When I saw this game announced with this theme I confess that I found it unusual.

Well, what I can say is that this game just became my new favorite in the series.

In addition to the game being beautiful like the others, and counting very well elaborated puzzles (ranging from the simplest ones that present the mechanics, to the most challenging ones), the theme was very well implemented, including the duel, which is very well incorporated gameplay dynamics in a way I didn’t imagine for a game inspired by chess.

I’m a cowboy: Western Shooter

I’m a cowboy: Western Shooter

I’m a cowboy: Western Shooter - a hardcore top-down shooter with an indescribable atmosphere of the wild west.

Each shootout can be the last. You need a great reaction to defeat your enemies.

Revolvers, rifles, dynamite and even machine guns - you can use all this in battle.

Adrenaline-pumping gameplay, one-on-one duels, challenging shootouts, horse chases, all this awaits you in this game.

Main character

Hi, my name is Tom, Tom Horn, they tried to hang a lot of dirty things on me, but you know what, buddy? I’m not like that. I know I know you’ve been told about me. They said that I killed the kid and a lot of other people for money, but it’s all nonsense. I was a deputy sheriff, I didn’t kill anyone for bucks and I never touched children. Sit back, I’ll tell you my story.

Main features:

  • Unique graphic style;

  • Adrenaline gameplay;

  • Hardcore shootings;

  • Various game scenarios (capture of a train, horse chases, siege of a ranch with bandits, etc.);

  • One-on-one duels with gang leaders;

  • Timed survival mode;

  • 6 unique types of weapons;

  • Multiplayer with modes 2 by 2 and deathmatch;

See if you can kill them all.

Unforgiven VR

In general, the game promises to be fun if (and only if) it’s finished. I have not experienced any technical issues, but there are definitely some in-game mechanics that still require work (player model tracking, gun drawing etc), which can be forgiven (you see what I did there?) due it’s early access status. The updates keep coming every few weeks though, so there’s still hope.

There’s one huge inescapable problem though - noone to play with. Bot’s are either complete slowpokes or instakills, pretty much no middle ground.

Great concept, polished look&view, fun to play!

@Devs: This game has potential to work as great offline multiplayer/party game if you add some kind of challenges like first reaching 1000$ worth of bounty, passing the vive between players after each round or first beating several opponents. There are not enough games out there supporting this approach, but lot’s of people having just one Vive who want to play offline with friends.

If you could also change that the revolvers can be grabbed by the side and not in front because of the slim hip of the avatar it would improve immersion.

Bleeding Kansas

Feels very unpolished and clunky overall. Controls are ok, but models are very basic, interface is extremely rough, and the gameplay? Good luck trying to aim. Multiplayer is also broken in some ways, and the way the camera locks between rounds is headache-inducing. Nevermind trying to see the scoreboard, because it only partially displays in one eye…

I really like the premise of this and the mixture of historical background with gameplay, but this is something that is pre-alpha and shouldn’t be sold yet or cost what it does right now.

If you like FPS but wanted your guns to be flaccid and inaccurate this is the game for you! My TNT is so bouncy it came back across the map and killed me, and the gun was so flaccid I shot a tnt barrel next to me! 10/10 would blow themselves up again!

A short, quick funny MP game. It can be challenging with all the floppy guns, but I think it adds a touch of comedic aspect. Definitely not for people looking for a serious shooter game. The graphics aren’t so bad, but the music did get a bit annoying quickly. Can be a fun time with a bunch of people you know, but it definitely doesn’t offer much gameplay to keep attention very long.

Overall, not a bad game. As bad as this sounds, $4 may be too much for what the game has to offer right at this moment, but I did have fun playing it, but not sure how much I’d play it in the future.

Saloon Showdown VR

What a game! Takes me back to the old days playing time crisis at the arcade. I especially love having to turn around and shoot around corners etc., makes the game very immersive.

Pros

Immersive and satisfying when you one shot 3 or 4 bad guys in a row

Cool boss stage

Cool bar scene – I would actually like to have a drink there after the shooting’s done

Addictive!

Cons

Too short (hopefully the next level comes out soon)

Voice acting a little inconsistent

This game is what VR is for. Looking forward to the final release.

This game is awesome.

Played for several hours today, even called mates up and told them to get over here and have a crack. Everyone loved it and once we all worked out the reload technique we couldn’t image doing it any other way now!

Game get’s harder as you progress through the town, a few of us made it up to the saloon a couple of times but the pressure of reloading, ducking behind crates and barrels etc builds up and makes it kinda scary!

It seems to run a lot smoother than any other VR game I’ve tried too; no FPS issues at all on my i5-6600K with a GTX970 and 8G-RAM. Got a little warm after a couple of hours, but not any worse than 30 mins on PUBG…

Review Update - 2018-12-29

The lastest update was major improvement. I really like the new HUD / Inventory and the new wagon. The game now loads in 1/2 to 1/3 of the time. I now getting better frames then before.

The weather is improved with rain and wind blowing the grass and trees around.

It keeps getting better and better…………….

The only problem in many many hours of play is one or two times the game crashed on exit - no problem - no big deal…. all game is still there next time. Hasn’t happened recently so I assume this is fixed.

JUST UPDATED ! Good Job guys. I used to rate this game at its present stage a 6/10.

Now I just raised it to a 7/10

But it has a potential to be an Ultra 10/10.

The latest and best Western themed open world pc game was GUN by Activision, which had ugly graphic

but great Story, Animations, Movie clips, Sounds, MUSIC …and general Western Athmosphere.

We cannot compete with RDR2, of course, but hey… GUN is a 2005 game …and I think it is reasonable to, at least,

point to a similar quality product.

This game is very Hotline Miami esc and I think that it is amazing. I have went through the one level as quickly as possible and the shortest time I could do it was 9 minutes as apposed to when I first played being half an hour. Keep up the good work.

I should clear this up first: Yes, this IS a mobile game ported to Steam. HOWEVER, at this time, there are no microtransactions. In fact, at some point after starting to play this game I received a slew of gems and gold in an in-game message that welcomed me for playing (not shown in the above video). I have not being compensated in any way.

All that said, I am having an absolute blast with this game. Even without that message it didn’t take me long to get some better characters, but even the initial hero is pretty fun. The only thing is you do need to get chests to make your character stronger through in-round exp options. As you play you get to choose various bonuses based on the cards/powers you have unlocked. In a way, it’s on par with Minion Master’s leveling scheme.

This game give you some time to pratice so would even stand a chance against William H. Bonney..

Nice simple western style game. The teaser movie of this game is funnier than the game itself.

Great idea but clearly not finished yet.

The bow (shooting birds) is not working well. Arrows will not always be placed well on the string of the bow. Throwing axes towards walking skeletons:an impossible task.

No one was online so a multiplayer or Lan game was not possible.

Hope there will be artificial opponents to be added to the game so you can dual without the multiplayer or Lan option.
