DotX

DotX

I don’t recommend this game as it feels like the cheap version of “osu!” and “osu!” is superior to it in every way possible. For starters lets take a look at the description from store page “DotX is a ‘mouse only’ game, where you will challenge your ability to control the mouse, as well as verify your emotional resistance.” sure I can agree with mouse control ability and emotional resistance if You’re planing to 100% the game but whats the point of improving Your “mouse control ability” in this type of game especially when You can just play “osu!”. It’s a bit different than “osu!” because here You don’t click the buttons to the rhythm but You can just play “osu!” with relax mod and it’d be much better. First of all improving Your aim in this type of game won’t help You in FPS games that much. Second thing is that even if it improves Your aim for “osu!” types of games, most people play “osu!” with graphic tablets as it’s much easier so there’s no point of improving Your aim in this particular game. It doesn’t support graphical tablets in any way. I’ve tried setting up my tablet as mouse cursor and it didn’t work for me. There aren’t many mods that modify the gameplay and they act like mods in “osu!”. There aren’t many settings changes that You can do and it feels like cursor change is the most limited one. First of all developer couldn’t implement it so that after the cursor change it doesn’t change its position which makes changing the cursor a little longer. Second of all only the first default cursor has no such thing called as “cursor tail” in “osu!”. In “osu!” different skins have the cursor tail depending of the skin author preference which You can remove by simply removing file in skin folder. What’s the point of having 10 different cursors if there’s no option to turn off cursor tail. Sure its a personal preference but there could be at least option to switch it on and off. I don’t understand adding 10 different cursors and the only 1st default one having no cursor tail. I know its just a cheap indie game but it doesn’t feel like there was much effort put into it. I’ve seen many other games that were 2x cheaper and still were more polished than this. There are 100 levels and they aren’t sorted by difficulty also most of the levels are mirrored. I’m not saying “all” but “most” of them. Completing some of the levels with all the mods to get achievements are nearly impossible. “Approach rate” and “circle size” with mods on in some levels just feel like they weren’t tested. Overall I don’t recommend this game because there’s a much better and free alternative.

I’ve got 999 problems and rage quit is 1 + 998…

Rage, Happiness and Intrigue are 3 of the 999 feelings that come with Tydecon Games' most recent Indie development, 999. If you’re looking for a puzzle platformer with some challenge and a varied learning curve, developed by a singular hardworking human being, then this might just be the game for you. 999 is fun-filled, rage-fuelled, colourful masterpiece with multiple game modes, levels generated in a random order and a banging stream overlay.

Hammerfight

Hammerfight

Is this game still being developed? Because it’s sooooooooooo good, if a little short (and lacking in multiplayer co-op, i’d love to go on a hunt with me and 2 other friends, swishing our better-than diamond swords around ;-;). The armoury is a huge assortment of mostly unique weapons each with a potentially unique fighting style.

The weapons are divided up in to 5 main categorys: swords, maces, flails, guns and axes, note: there are a few other things that don’t exactly fit in to any of the categories and also a fair few misc usables and things flails have chains and can deal a massive impact on a direct blow, the chains are normally a fair amount longer than the other weapons, and therefore have more reach, the swords seem to be a little weak as they can not deal a huge stunning crush like the axes and maces and flails, but still have a greater balance which makes it easier to aim when coupled with guns, oh and i forgot to mention, you can combine any 2 weapons together to make a combo weapon thing, quite fun! There are not too many guns (There are 5 guns to be precise) and it’s not easy to just use them as they are, they have an infinite amount of ammo, but the reloads are long and tend to have only 5-20 ammo cap. They are unfortunately over powered when in the AI’s hands as they seem to have aim-hacks and a much faster cooldown etc. The axes are sort of a combo between maces and swords, and can deal a crushing blow like the mace, whilst still capable of the alacrity contained by the sword. The maces are a great way to start of your learning, easy to handle and deal a crushing hit, but not so useful late-game.

Criminally underappreciated! This game is packing more quality pound for pound than most others. It’s a real diamond in the rough, and it certainly is rough, but it offers so much that you can’t find in other games. I don’t think that there’s any other game that uses its thematic style, for one thing. It seems vaguely middle eastern but not really, vaguely steampunk but not really. It’s just endlessly interesting. The engine, too, is astounding considering how little it’s talked about. It’s so robust that it enables crazy things to occur. I once hit a guy so hard that, in the endlessly looping arena, he passed over my head multiple times before he hit the ground. It really is amazing. The game has so much replay value, too. You start out with only the ability to do your story missions as an almost nameless grunt, but you unlock the ability to buy weapons and go on hunts. Eventually you’re decked out in ornate armor and weaponry, with titles so long that they take half a minute to list. It never stops being satisfying. Definitely buy this game. 5 bucks is a steal.

A fun and entertaining game. I enjoy the colors a lot. It is a point click game, so it is good as it gets for that type of game.

Best Plumber

Best Plumber

Plain and simple connecting tube.

In Best Plumber, you connect pipes from a pump to a container.

Do it quickly and get three stars.

You must be fast enough to get three stars in all levels.

Some levels I had to reload several times before the end.

There is nothing complicated and also super cheap.

The withdrawal game is well worth the money.

Wow. If you liked Pipe Dream in the 90s, you’ll enjoy the similarities.

My biggest complaint is that the pipes can be hard to click on and not always respond as you expect. This means that if you are trying to go for 3 stars on all levels, you’ll start having trouble in the mid-high 20s as the timer is much shorter if you don’t get the ideal path.

There IS a glitch that seems pretty bad. If you set up a line of pipes, the water might not go through all of them even if they are linked. To fix this, flip the problematic pipe and you’re good to go.
