BeachHead 2020

BeachHead 2020

This review is for the non-VR game.

I bought the early access BH2020 as soon as it came out and I’ve been enjoying it immensely. I thought BH2002 was a blast so I was excited for this newer version.

The game has a new and detailed look compared to the earlier version. The graphics are nice as are the sounds. I’ve only encountered minor glitches such as the game loosing count of health and a stutter with aiming, but they were quickly resolved when reported to the Devs.

The game is still “early-access” so issues are still being adjusted. I’ve found the Developers to be very attentive to any concerns that are communicated to them. It sounds like they have a huge and fascinating game besides the stationary shooting station out now.

A REAL review on BeachHead 2020

First off, looking at the negative reviews, these people are not giving it time. Almost all if not all played the game for less than an hour if that much (look at their hours on record). With that being said, this IS still in very Early Access, meaning that it will be less than perfect as the company works out the bugs, kinks and adds more features.

I have found a few issues like the aiming is kind of choppy when zooming in. But really I am not holding this against the company. As of writing up this review, the game version is at 1.1.1. So in time I am sure these minor things will be fixed.

I have more good things to say than bad things about this game so let’s get the one bad thing out of the way real quick first.

The controls. There’s sadly no controller support; which would really help. It is playable with a mouse and keyboard but (at least for me) took a lot of key rebinds to find something that;s comfortable for me.

If you can get past that, the game is pretty fun. It’s silly, it’s straightforward and there’s something about senselessly smashing buildings, stomping on people and wrecking rocks, trees and cars that helps me kill an hour or so when I don’t feel like playing much else.

Ever wondered, “I wonder what it would be like to be Godzailla?” This is the game for you.

Destroy buildings, cars, streetlights, telephone booths, dumpsters, park benches and bollards with a swipe of your left and right paw. Cackle with glee as you use your mutengenic powers to level city blocks or turn hapless citizens, police and members of the national guard into puffs of confetti, grow large before exploding or into cute rubber ducks.

This game is great to kill an hour or two.

It’s a genuinely fun and, dare I say, original game with lots of love and attention put into it. You play as a transforming, arguably overpowered super-mech that can lay waste to the battlefield on land and from the air. The battles are nicely simulated and have a good sense of scale (for a game that’s almost 2 decades old), and the over-the-top explosions and general mayhem is surprisingly good for stress relief.

The story campaign will be your main focus in the game. Here, individual missions are graded based on your performance, so there’s some form of replayability. The campaign is highlighted by several exhilarating and creative boss fights, and, though it’s nothing to write home about, there’s also something of a branching storyline.

This is a great game and I loved it when I was a kid. now that I’m an adult I was dying to replay this game as it held such good memories. The nostalgia was amazing and I love the game even more. the flying controls are some of the best I’ve seen in any game and the ground to air transition makes things so easy to keep up with the games fast pace later in the more difficult levels. I would love a remake with how big games get now, I can imagine how awesome the game would be with more levels, detail, more choices for weapons and online multiplayer. it would be so much fun. Alas, that’s unlikely to happen but I have hope.

It’s more of a hybrid genre game somewhere between Action-Casual and Simulation, not necessarily a pure simulator. However, if you enjoy the theme and subject matter, it’s some pretty good relaxing casual fun.

I do think the game’s description and how it presents its gameplay in its trailer should be tweaked a little bit. This is not really a pure sandbox, as the goals and progression are very directed and sequential, not open-ended. It’s also not that close to a pure simulator- there are numerous constraints and limitations on your activity and gameplay mechanics, invisible walls, etc.

Teardown

Teardown

This game is wonderful.

From the satisfying explosions & realistic lighting and weather, to satisfyingly destructive fire and physics, Teardown is by far the most amazing game I have played in 2021. I may be a bit late to the party, but Teardown has the potential to hold up for the future. If this ever gets ported to next-gen hardware, it would be magnificent. Everything in the game is so amazingly satisfying. Teardown, I must say, is the ultimate stress reliever. There is something so magical about seeing semi-realistic destruction, with no real consequences. Don’t even get me started on the infinite stream of modded weaponry, maps, and random features I didn’t know I needed.

The destruction in this game works incredibly well. It may disappoint some, what with it still abiding by the logic of even a few blocks connected to something can prevent a structure from falling apart, but I ended up viewing that as a useful tool to better break the environment the way I needed to more than a negative. Additionally the first part of the campaign got a bit heavy on timer based missions in which you set up and then have a minute to grab various objectives then escape the level, but these definitely are less common in part 2 and when they do show up they’re different enough from the first ones you get to justify their presence. Overall though, the destruction is great and it combined with the objectives of each mission makes for some very rewarding gameplay.

StressOut

StressOut

I’m writing this review after completing the game a few times. I’m playing StressOut on my Quest 2 thrugh VirtualDesktop on Steam with my 1080ti graphics card and I didn’t see any performance issues so far. The game runs smooth.

From a design perspective game is an smash up playground and I think it’s meant to relax and intrigue with unique mechanics. Even tho the game is in Early Access, I enjoyed fun mechanics like object manipulation that resembles a bit of Portal 2 and Garry’s gravity gun. It’s sooo satisfying wrecking havoc in VR.

Break stuff and get rewarded for it in VR. Time constraints force toy to exert yourself quick as you absorb and shoot objects from your hand when you’re not just picking stuff up to smash other stuff

from the moment i saw this game i was interested because there aren’t many games like this so it was nice to see a fun monster game on steam the game is pretty fun and destruction is pretty satisfying but the one problem that this game suffers from is lack of content but that can be excused because this game is still in early access but if there are some things that could improve are the enemy types and the city i wish it could be bigger but hopefully future updates will help the lack of content overall this is 8.5/10
