Lithium City
| Follow my curator for more great game recommendations! |
Lithium City is a wonderfully atmospheric isometric twin stick action game. You play as a female warrior working her way higher and higher up in the city towards a final battle.
The game utilises guns, melee and thrown weapons and at times you will need all three. All will need to be used and due to the scarcity of ammunition you will frequently have to change weapons on the fly. Shooting is tight and easy and the various guns have the weight you’d expect. Even when everything feels far too hectic you can usually get back on top with judicious weapon use and occasionally running away! The controls are simple shoot/stab/punch with one button and dash with another, that’s it. Though the dash can be a little imprecise at times.

A lot of people are comparing this game to Hotline Miami, which is true in a way. You enter a room with a pre-set enemy placement, and try to kill everyone in there, learning and adapting to where they are and what weapons they drop and the best way to plan your assault through it.
That being said, there’s a few stark differences between the two. Hotline Miami is focused more on larger levels, entire floor plans and buildings you have to clear out, whereas Lithium City has smaller rooms. Lithium City is a bit shorter, and each level has more of a specific concept it goes with, whether it’s utilizing moving floors or defending a single room with waves of enemies running in. The biggest complaint I have in regards to gameplay would be that Lithium City is short, with only six chapters it shouldn’t take you more than five hours to beat. Which is fine, for the price, but I found myself wanting more stages that were fully open, which don’t really come in until near the end of the game. It’s also isometric, which works really well with this kind of gameplay.

SKIPCHASER
This game has great potential. But unfortunately I can’t bypass the issues.
First of all, I learned more about the story by reading the description of the game on Steam in 5 minutes than by playing the game for 2 hours. Things just sort of happen in the game, which is really sad because the actual story seems like it has some thoguht in it.
The weapon upgrade system didn’t amuse me for more than 5 minutes. I unlocked 90% of the upgrades by playing before the game even teached me how to use them. When it did teach me, as I said I got excited, but since I had unlocked almost everything I just made my builds and left, never having to open it ever again.

I saw this cool looking game on itch a while back, and probably should have bought it there to support their storefront and give the developer a better cut.. but I ended up getting it here on steam because of the convenience of my existing library. I guess that’s what the extra margin is for, higher conversion rate of browsers to purchasers.
But forget about all that, you don’t care. You just want to know if the game is good. It is great! the art style is a lot of fun, the gun assembly is great and lets you customize your play style and easily swap between three different fully customized weapons depending on what you’re fighting.

Solstice Chronicles: MIA
Hello gang,
I am a Fig backer, that was able to partake in testing various aspects of Solstice Chronicles: MIA. In no way, shape or form did I receive this game for free or get payed financially to write this review, and also I am not an employee of IRONWARD. I am a simply man with simply needs. A video game to use as an escape from the soul crushing reality I call life! So, now that’s out of the way, let’s begin!
Do you find yourself wanting to be a space marine that shoots foreign creatures in the face to save humanity? Then look no further! If you are fans of the movie ‘Aliens’ or games like ‘HELLDIVERS’, then this is the game for you.

So, i played Red Solstice before and i tried this one not specially hyped about the change in gameplay, but i was happily surprised by this game
The game is overall good for me, good graphics, fluid gameplay, the first missions of story mode used as a tutorial in disguise but still with enough difficulties to be called missions. made it run on high definition without fps drop or graphic anomaly
We have 4 classes, each with it’s own mecanics : Assault (good melee and shooter), Demolition (heavy use of skills), Hellfire (Tank and crowd control), and Terminator (Powerful but decrease suit integrity with each used skills)

Vermitron
Very cutesy action game with old school art. If you are up for a retro adventure and like exploration, give it a go!
It doesn’t look that challenging, but it’s not easy. Also, there are some mechanics I didn’t get at first, but you learn as you progress more in the game.
– Real player with 9.8 hrs in game
TL;DR: Give Vermitron a shot.
When most people think of twin-stick shooters, they think of raw micro mechanics. Disciplined aiming, shooting, and dodging, instead of careful, methodical thinking. Tibor Fobel embraces the later, fabricating a retro and tower defense hybrid. The result: a solid, old-school action game that deserves more attention.
Vermitron follows an intrepid astronaut, defending an endangered flower from invading insects. Player’s progress level-to-level, descending further into an infested base. Winning a floor is simple: blossom your flower by collecting three watering cans. However, hungry pests will be squirming to your base, so you’ll have to defend your plant along the way. Slaughtering worms and flies is easy. The trouble comes when picking up a watering can, which spawns a wave of insects. You also become slower, barely moving faster than a grub. Without a base defended by armed towers, your flower will be easy pickings as you travel back.
