Samurai Chess

Samurai Chess

It took me a little while to get used to some of the most exotic pieces, but once I did, the experience was delightful!

It’s just fun to cut through enemy pieces while admiring the cherry blossoms in the wind!

Ironlights

Ironlights

sadly, there are too many issues with this game to recommend it.

the concept is alright, though i do think the weapons shattering while you’re blocking kinda defeats the entire point of blocking with a weapon

and even then, you’ll have some good games, you’ll meet a knight who swings properly, and damn near cuts you in half with his projectiles, a duelist who deftly parries and thrusts, a crusader who is close unpredictable with his master over the ball and chain, or a reaper like me, who blocks and seeks openings in your guard, forcing you to adapt quickly.

Ironlights is actually a pretty awesome game. For those who have looked up the steamcharts and fear the game is dead. Most of the players are on oculus and there’s crossplay. So those numbers can be misleading.

The game is probably the closest I’ve gotten to actual fencing in a vr game (It’s not super close, but it’s better than the other sword games I’ve tried). The game prevents the wiggle wand style of sword fighting which is awesome. The singleplayer ai is fairly competent as well, so there’s a lot of fun in that. There’s also a seemingly great community here as well.

The Final Boss of Asset Flips

This game is a very cheap & obvious asset flip comprised of stock content. There are a number of stock maps for you to progress through as you fight stock enemies whilst gaining XP to unlock more stock moves from the games stock combat system. One such move allows you to perform “a series of strokes” - this is the only series of strokes you will be performing as there is no nudity in this game despite the nudity and sexual content tags on the steam page.

It’s cheap, so there’s that, but it does cost time, and your time is better spent elsewhere.

Bugs and missing features

The trailer for the game is quite nicely done, but shows essential mechanics/features of the game which do not work or are not available yet! This is real bad.

[[[[- When I press TAB (ingame on the left screen side), the control should actually be displayed. However, this is immediately hidden again. (there is no menu for controlls in the main screen just graphics settings).

  • When I press the left mouse button, I hear a sword swinging, but the character neither picks up the sword nor swings it. Nor does anything happen when I press the right or middle mouse button. So the complete attack animations are missing (for more read below)]]]]

Wow.

I was only 7 the last time I had ever touched this game, that was all the way back in 2009. I got frustrated with Time Commando because of how difficult it was, never being able to finish the game after already halfway through it and eventually gave up. I ended up losing the disc somehow and when I did decide to give it another try I never found it again nor could I find another copy anywhere else, so I gave up looking and eventually forgot the game even existed.

Then LO AND BEHOLD, 12 years later and I stumble across this game again on Steam. Words cannot express how absolutely THRILLED I was to be able to play Time Commando again!

i own it on CDROM now I own it on SteamROM

if u want the DOSBox to be in windowed mode with higher resolution, you have to go to the steam folder you installed it, like “X:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Time Commando”, find “TC.conf” and change the window resolution to something like “windowresolution=1280x960” then either “fullscreen=false” or just Alt+Enter when it opens

Good Quality and Content for a RPGMaker game.

Very responsive developer always around to answer queries.

Oriental story, audio and settings.

Character building, satisfiers system similar to a survival game.

System unlike those others that have Hitpoints of several thousands, or deals thousands of damages per hit, characters and damage dealings stay at minimal hitpoint and deals reasonable low damages.

Plot, drama and gameplay is fine, alittle dull once the first capital is taken.

But,

Unable to customize much of the controls bind key with F1 console, unlike most other rpgmaker game.

This game is worth your time and hard-earned cash. Essentially, the game is a jrpg about Japan in the late sengoku jidai. You get to pick your starting class and skills and sex which can really make the game interesting.

The best part about this game, is that it really does all it can to make you feel like you are taking on the role of someone’s life. A lot of role-playing games these days sort of play like a power fantasy as the player does his or her best to reach a point of apotheosis, or Ultimate Warrior. However, this game’s goal isn’t to make a God out of the main player or the character, as the main character is more or less known as a great warrior for being one of the first in the region to rebell against the unjust nature of the current Empire. The biggest rewards come from taking part in the story and completing side quests, rather than grinding repetitively.

Hanako: Honor & Blade

Hanako: Honor & Blade

I’m going to comment solely on the feel of combat since IMO that’s the most ‘make or break’ factor in a PvP game. As of writing this review the game offers 4 classes, 3 melee and 1 ranged.

The ranged character uses a bow and its pretty typical of what you would expect from such a class. Mechanics like projectile drop and needing to lead on a moving target respect the physics of shooting an arrow but they’re not overly difficult as to become aggravating. You can play back and aim your shots or you can get close and spam arrows, its a good mix of skill & spray-n-pray.

First off, the Devs have worked really hard to get this game to where it is now and it shows. When I had my first few games I had expected broken mechanics or obvious inbalance of the classes. However I was pleasantly surprised that they have a very strong foundation in place.

All 3 classes play differently with their own unique style to learn and bring out the fantasy that they are known for. Easy to pick up and learn but also some depth for those who want to truly master their classes mechanics.

Swordian Hero

Swordian Hero

This game looks and plays like fun but it needs some things to make it easier to play. First of all, there are waaaay to many enemies that spawn at times, and half the time they spawn behind you which makes you have to either stand off and fight them and take a big load of damage in the process, or cast and move back over and over and hope nothing comes from behind you as you go further into the level.

I feel that also there is not enough ways for you to get your health back. The only way you can is by smashing up barrels, which can also explode upon impact which does damage to you. This makes getting health back quite risky because you could get damaged further instead. I think this game could benefit with some kind of inventory system, it doesn’t even need to be that sophisticated. Just somewhere that you can store food/health potions that you can drop off enemies would be quite nice to see. Simple RPG stuff you know?

First impression review:

I went into this game after buying a dozen of this developer’s games. I assumed they were all going to be nothing more than sprite swaps. I was definitely wrong – mostly.

This developer seems to use the same engine and general design for all of their games. All of their games seem to be on-rails in a limited space. This game definitely has more of an action RPG to it, though, unlike Magicgirl Mimi which felt more like a side-scrolling shooter.

It’s fairly short. If you can get it for less than $1, it’s definitely worth it. It’s a decent amount of fun.

Physics based simulation style sword fighting game taking place in 17th century Poland. Think of a cross between… Bushido Blade, Exanima, & Die by the Sword. Created by one of the main animators for Witcher 3. Really amazing to see an animator translate their ideas about animation into gameplay. I’m sure a lot of animators get frustrated by game design limitations.

This would be a really fun party game if you have a couple controllers! It’s easy to learn, very difficult to master, but it’s very fun and feels authentic through and through.

A very good game, it has got everything you want in a game like this. It’s free, and if paying I could be able to play alone, it would be nice and a way to make me pay the people that made this game. All I can say is thank you, developers, I’d deffinetly pay to play a game like this with some more content. A coop version would be cool too. Imagine playing with your friends and killing bosses in a game like this.

Try this game, it’s free, you don’t loose anything. In my profile I haven’t played much, but I’ve played in my friend’s account and the game has 11 maps and everyone with its own different aspects. It has got some more power ups, the only problem is that you can’t change the buttons of the actions.
