cool game kinda glitchy at times sometimes when you go to complete the level there are enemy ships under the map and you cant get to them and you have to restart the game, also no ingame save feature only in the office area. graphics are so so you can more than likely play the game with integrated graphics because the graphics are very sub par.

I really enjoyed playing this game. It is just great fun to play. At the risk of showing my age it has the feel of the tv series ‘The Invaders’ with Roy Thinnes. Very similar to GTA but to the developers credit made with a fraction of the budget. The ‘world’ feels expansive and there is plenty to explore. I really like being out in the desert episodes best. The controls gets a bit clunky but that sort of adds to the fun. I will love to play it again on a better PC as I had to run it in windowed mode to help sort the lag. A few patches may well sort that out. I would be delighted to find out if there is a Agent Roswell 2 on the way or a least more episodes. Good game that I know I will be loading up again sometime in the future.

Ragnar

Ragnar

Story!

Some time in the distant future, human soldiers have been replaced with combat ready machines. Unfortunately, a terrorist organization was able to hack into the machines and order them to turn their guns on their nations. The U.N. was able to pin point the enemies base and order a soldier, code name “Ragnar”, to sneakily infiltrate the base. His main mission is to find a way to put an end to this madness once and for all.

Ragnar is a run-and-gun action platformer that is inspired by Contra. Which means it will be highly difficulty, but fair!

What to expect!

Ragnar is a run-and-gun action platformer which will be highly difficulty, but fair.

The player character comes armed with a gun that can shoot infinitely. When defeating an enemy, a power-up may spring out onto the battlefield. Different power-ups can be picked up which will grant the player new bullet abilities. However, the power-up will be lost if the player comes in contact with an enemy’s bullet, while losing a life instantly.

The character can shoot in five directions and can also crouch. Each level will be handcrafted which will guarantee to make them action packed.

And yes, this game is paying homage towards Contra!

Darkness Rollercoaster - Ultimate Shooter Edition

Darkness Rollercoaster - Ultimate Shooter Edition

Decent game ! Very funny and very impressive virtual reality game, the immersion is real and intensive.

It feels pretty good to play it alone or with some friends.

The game is still in an early BETA access and I’m not disappointed at all, I highly recommend this game for virtual reality amateurs and to be honnest he’s pretty cheap for a virtual reality game !

In VR I particularly like good coaster rides and also shooters. So with Darkness Rollercoaster you have a combination of both genres. So far have played for several hours, and generally pleased with the quality and value, particularly considering the developers to their credit appear pro-active with quick resolution of an initial problem (blockage on Fantasy track) and promise of more to come.

What I like about this game is the variety of environments, the explore ‘no guns’ modes, the random generated tracks, and the overall fun provided. The Adventure tracks is particularly good, the Fantasy not too far behind, the Binary and Space lands providing a different less coaster ride feel. Incidentally thought the Binary City amazing, and would welcome expansion of this element. For the future developers may wish to consider adding further themes along the lines of an undersea dark cavernous track, an Indiana Jones style jewel mine track, or an indoor huge ghost manor (light) horror themed track.

One Pixel TWB

One Pixel TWB

2D platform game with minimalist graphics in Pixel art, your goal is to climb the castle while defeating various bosses that try to prevent your passage. With each floor you pass the game will present you with increasingly difficult bosses to defeat, add this to dialogs that portray the history of this universe and an extremely difficult difficulty for the vast majority of people.

To defeat these bosses you have the following abilities:

  • Create Platforms Underneath You.

  • Shoot.

  • Dash.

  • Jump and Duck

  • 2d Movement.

The graphics of the game has a focus mostly on the colors black, white, grayscale and red, in some parts of the game other colors may appear but are almost null.

During the game you follow the point of view of the White Pixel who is having his city attacked, you as a good emperor must stop the enemy and if you have a thirst for knowledge can try to find out what caused all this chaos.

One Pixel The War Begins is our second game presenting this very interesting universe of Pixels, unlike its older brother this game has a much wider variety of Phases, mechanics, Enhancements, Characters and more.

Also the soundtrack of the game is absolutely original of us.

ARENIX

Start in a small box arena, little slow-moving skulls appear and you shoot them. Guns spawn randomly and you pick them up and they quickly deplete after 10 shots or so. Try to pick up new weapon or you’re helpless. Guns appear and disappear seconds later, and you move so slowly you can rarely get across the map to even pick them up before they disappear.

I’m a complete sucker for twin-stick shooters, it takes a lot for me to Thumb’s Down a twin stick… But since this game is incredibly slow, unfun, RNG heavy and one-dimensional I have to say no. Nothing fun about this, needs months and months more work to be even remotely qualify as a good time waster. Not expecting AAA for this price, but at the same time you don’t expect to be bored to tears within 2 minutes.

The Last From Mars

The Last From Mars

‘The Last From Mars’ is a pretty traditional alien shooter. You get wave after wave of cute looking aliens all wanting to eat you alive, or maybe implant their eggs into your stomach. There is only one play area here and a handful of guns with a few powerups thrown in for good measure. It looks OK I guess and feels OK to play, but none of it is original and there is nothing ‘stand-out’ here. I would have liked to have seen it a little chapter than £5.79 (the current asking price) as there isn’t a lot of content here, but even so, I feel you will probably get your money’s worth if you take the time to get into the game. Personally, I found it all too…“meh” to bother with, but I do still recommend it (I just wish I could be neutral about it).
