Nightmare Reaper
EDIT: Episode 2 released, and it’s more insane than before, imo. Love it.
My thoughts?
This game is what would happen if B.J Blazkowicz dropped acid and ended up in a twisted Army of Darkness version of Might & Magic, then throw in some of that looter shooter goodness and you’ll have a good idea of the fun that awaits with this game.
The levels all flow nicely into each other despite being randomly generated from presets, and you’d be a bit hard pressed to tell it is at times as a result. All the weapons so far are a joy to use, all of them feeling pretty great, not to mention all of them work in a pinch if you run out of ammo for one of them. The spritework is impressive, as is the gore system (I had it set to Ludicrious and man does it live up to the name).

This is an utterly fantastic game. The heritage of the old boomer-shooters like Doom, Blood, Rise of the Triad and the like are present without being too much of a complete clone of those legends but this is a solid homage to those games from the past.
The art design has gone through a couple of overhauls, the most recent being the release with chapter two, so if you had seen earlier gameplay footage the looks have changed to not be overwhelming in the color department. (RIP Hula dancer zombie).

Fallen Guns
Fallen Guns is top down shooter focused on combat strategy. The passage of time will be slow when Alex (the protagonist) is stationary and will return to normal when he moves again. This dynamic will force the player to look for perfect shots and correct timings when eliminating enemies. This makes eliminating a large swarm of enemies very satisfying and rewarding.

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.

I would highly recommend this game to vegetarians only.
Once you’ve released all beasts from their miserable life in the Park, all there’s left is plants, for eternity…

OUTRIDERS
I like to think I’m a patient person, and I’ve waited a month to post this negative review. I honestly regret not doing it sooner. I waited because the game is genuinely fun to play, but at this point the issues are a lead weight on the other side of the scale. I can say that with 134 hours, I’ve gotten my $60 out of this game, but I had to actually “try” to get that value. By the time I was totally fed up, I was outside the refund window, so I kept going to get my money’s worth.
Pros:
1. When the game works, the gameplay is stellar. The blending of shooting and ability use throughout combat works really well. It is also visually entertaining.

Ok, so the developers are being super open about problems and they just releases a 24 GB update. The game is so messed up that it needed an update 1/3 the size of the total package?
Crashes on start up. You double click your desktop icon and there is a 5 to 10 sec nothing happens. Now I had an SSD card drive that plugs in directly to my motherboard with a read speed of 2.5 gb/s. So the game starts with this beautiful graphic, a sweeping view of the game world. The the screen goes black. It stays that way until the first ad screen appears, maybe. Or it just stays black until the game loads a crash log. Which by the way adds a 340 mb file that sits on your drive every time it crashes. I cleaned out the crash dumps and there were 15.5 GB. They don’t tell you about that. Well anyway they said they fixed it, and well they were wrong.

Psycho on the loose
Definitely worth the money
Its one of those games that keeps the simplicity but keeps it challenging.
Its simple and easy to get used to, but finding it to easy and you will be challenged. One of the nice and unique things about this game is that no matter what you always get to keep your money even if I finish the level got back home do another level i always keep my cash but if I die, I die, I lose it all.
Good job guys.
I hope to see another map in the future
