Riskers
It does a great job of mixing modern top down action with the beloved GTA athstetic. I got it for 3$CND and it was completely worth the purchase. The ‘levels’ where you assault building interiors are well designed and enjoyable to fight through, the shooting mechanic feels great and is much tighter than the original GTA, london missions or GTA 2.
On the down side the driving/car systems feel a bit stripped down, including the cops and the city itself. While the game has side missions and a city to drive around in with a few things to find overall the game feels more linear than it’s inspiration and the map is lacking unique set peices and details (no jumpable bridges, trains, car vendors on the docks ect.) It’s not really fair to compare this to a game as influectial as GTA but they kind of force us to and sadly in every way but the gunplay it’s missing so many of the tiny nuances & details that made GTA a classic so keep that in mind if you are fans of the original games scope, you won’t find the same living city or sandbox options in this game.

Relic Hunters Zero: Remix
with the new update, new bugs have arrived that alter gameplay. I have been a long-time fan of this game, but over the 3 games of endless I have played today with the new update, my approval rating has gone down. originally, if you or an enemy threw a grenade, it would be visible 100% of the time from throw to explosion, but now some enemy grenades thrown by ducks will become invisible land mines. I’m not sure this was intentional, but it still occurs. likewise, when a body spills out loot like bounty, ammo, and sometimes scrap, some items' icons will fly down to the bottom of the screen, dissapearing from view, but the item will still in the game, just invisible. also, grenade throwing animations have slowed significantly, and sometimes the ducans won’t even fight the kami, just sitting still until you approach. i would enjoy a fix of these bugs and maybe an increase in drop rate of the new scrap currency, because upgrades are now few and far between, making combat significantly harder.

The very fact that this game is free, there is nothing stopping you from giving this game your time, and trust me, it warrants it. Do you like arcade-style gameplay? Done. Fast-paced run-n'-gun action? Absolutely. Addictive levels of replayability? Triple check. tl;dr at the bottom.
The main plot is easy enough to follow: You’re a Relic Hunter, and you hunt relics. Simple enough, right? One hitch: the asteroid you’re on is teeming with vicious wildlife and cutthroat thugs. The solution? Shoot everything that moves.

I got a key from the developer so thank you for letting me try your game.
I wanted to try this game because I enjoy top-down horror games like this, sometimes when I was playing I couldn’t pick up items for some reason took me a while to figure out how to get into my inventory but that’s just me i’m thick.
I went to the hospital but couldn’t find any trace of the person I was looking for but again maybe I wasn’t looking in the right place.
Overall I really liked it and gave me retro vibes of playing back in the 80’s and 90’s I made a video with no commentary just having a look at the gameplay.

Danger Scavenger
Cautiously Recommend–Feels Very Much Unfinished
Stumbled upon this a few days back, wishlisted it and bought it today on a whim really digging the music and look the game has. Sometimes you strike out, sometimes you hit paydirt. This is paydirt, a diamond in the rough that after time can be awesome.
It’s VERY rough around the edges and definitely could use lots more polish but it’s highly addictive and the fun factor is very strong if you can get past the many nuances that hold this game back from being amazing.

I’ve written a fairly neutral preview for this game on Gamer Escape, which you can find here: https://gamerescape.com/2020/06/29/preview-danger-scavenger/ . At that time, the game had just switched from being official release to Early Access to address the user feedback based on the mixed steam reivew score (At Gamer Escape we do not do scored reviews for Early Access games)
Within days, the devs for this game have already gone to work with their stated goal: Make the game more appealing to both the twin-stick shooter fans and the roguelike fans whom both had issues with how these mechanics were combined. They have added “Arcade Mode”, which removes the roguelike permadeath mechanics, but also in this mode, each character starts from a different tower, so you get more of a distinct experience with each character in this mode. While it kind of comes off as just a lowered difficulty setting, it does open the game up to a lot of people who find the punishing nature of the roguelike style more frustrating than fun.

I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1N IT!!!1
I highly recommend this game if your looking for a good twin stick shooter that won’t take much of your time. From playing the Xbox 360 version to now the Steam I can tell you that this game hold up very well. What makes it better that it is a free experience so if you don’t enjoy it you just have to uninstall. When you get a chance definitely take some time into playing it.

FINALLY. This was easily one of my favorite games back on Xbox Arcade. It’s not that it’s a huge game. To be fair it’s a chaotic mess, but it’s so much fun. The soundtrack meshes perfectly with the gameplay too and was well worth the $1 cover charge the game used to require. Hopefully “I MAED A S0NG W1TH Z0MBIES 1N IT” makes it’s way to Steam soon as well since we can have soundtracks now. The only thing that could make this game better is more of it but for a bite sized 10 minute adventure this one is hands down one of the best.

Zombardment
To summarize, I really like this game and its style. It does have a few bugs and could use some cosmetic adjustments.
I’ll list the things I liked first.
The game play is simple and intuitive, and the game itself is a style that’s common and easy so anyone can play this game. It hit a certain nostalgia for me for 2 games I haven’t played in a long time that I immensely enjoyed when I was a kid, so that was a nice experience.
I like the more minimal designs of the character and monsters, there’s already a lot going on with you shooting and dodging and explosions and fire so not having a busy or complicated design is really nice, and it really leaves room for my imagination to take over and render the monsters in my own way.
