Awesomenauts - the 2D moba

Awesomenauts - the 2D moba

Full disclosure here, I’m really involved with Awesomenauts. I’ve met the developers, Ronimo, in person more than twice and have been contracted to do work for them. I’ve cast tournament events in a professional capacity, wrote and recorded an in-game announcer, earned a “Golden Duck” (the Ronimo community award), and attribute any real success of my YouTube channel to Awesomenauts and the community that surrounds it. Awesomenauts is my single most played game of all time, sitting at 2800+ hours at the time of this writing, and has been a core part of my life for over 5 years. I’ve bought the game and the old expansions for myself and several friends, and contributed to their Starstorm Kickstarter for $162, and have bought most of the cosmetic skins available. With that said, let’s continue.

After two-three long years of Awesomenauts, I thought I might give you my full thoughts about this game, now that we are getting close to the end of the Starstorm DLC development and the new Matchmaking server.

First of all, my feelings toward this game are mostly positive. I love the general gameplay style, it’s like Smash Bros meeting MOBAs like Dota and LoL, 2D and stuff.

Music, oh boy, Sonic Picnic has really given their best with the game’s soundtrack.

Visuals, they’re great, I love the 1980’s cartoon style Ronimo has been going for, same goes for the characters and lore in general.

Bestiary of Sigillum

Bestiary of Sigillum

It’s a decent game, but with two major flaws at the moment.

1. Small community. You could be waiting an opponent for 10-15 minutes to no avail.

2. “Out of sync” bug in Custom mode. I tried to play with my friend two month ago. We managed to play one game out of three without the bug. Sure, there is some fun in playing two different games at once, but only the first time.

Though I doubt that anything can be done with the first problem in the near future, I hope the developers at least fix the second one. So the thumb up is not to the game at its current state, but to the game it might become if devs at least fix Custom mode and add AI mode.

So far pretty fun! Trying to counter your apponent makes the game pretty interesting. However, when my brother and I play against eachother on seperate PCs we sometimes get this problem where we are playing different games kind of. It’s like the game is not tracking our moves and displaying them correctly on the others PC. So, I will see my borthers moves one way that is contrary to how my brother actually moved his characters. Besides that great game!

Steel Team: Academy

Steel Team: Academy

“Steel Team: Academy” is a MOBA variation of an artillery shooter with elements of strategy.

Battles are one-on-one or in teams with gunfights using various weapons - from conventional machine guns to extremely powerful missile strikes.

Sounds Like A Classic Artillery Shooter? Oh Yeah!

But That’s Not All.

The easy-to-learn gameplay is becoming incredibly diverse due to the use of a variety of robots with unique characteristics (defined by their tactical roles) and ultimate skills and various game modes: single and team battles for control over key locations, fighting with resource collection, battles against monsters and - in some perspectives - battles for control over territories.

What Makes Our Game Special?

  • Balanced weapons lineup designated for particular tactical situations

  • Different robots (with various characteristics and unique ultimate capabilities)

  • Different types of games:

o single-player and multi-player battles for control over key locations,

o single-player battles with collecting resources,

o solo battles against monsters,

o global wars for control over territories

Why Moba?

Despite the fact that this definition is usually used for DotA-like games, we think it is time we went beyond the usual borders.

Our games have the following components that are necessary for a cyber-sports arena:

  • A match selection system that takes into account each individual player’s levels of experience

  • The opportunity to communicate and make friends in the game, create your own team

  • Ranking games for experienced players

  • WAR OF CLANS - battles on the global map for control over separate planets and zones on the planets (in the full version)

We are creating a game for hardcore fans and for people who like this type of unique gameplay and who are not afraid of challenges.

Poker Supreme - Las Vegas

100% garbage game. POS.

Real player with 3.4 hrs in game

The best summary of this game is that there’s a button on the title screen that says “Immediate Start”; I click on it and nothing happens.

Generally sluggish and weird. Starts with a very long loading screen, and then to actually play a game I had to wait for more loading (meeting all minimum specs and then some). The English text is so confusing I had to guess at what I was doing. It’s a pity because I quite liked the aesthetic of it.

Crazy Ludo

Crazy Ludo

Change based on classic flying chess! There is no end to our flying moves, and players no longer need to worry about getting there first. “Go around behind it and destroy it!” Combat is the core of gameplay and the ultimate victory of the game is achieved through combat.

More to worry about is how to chase down other players' planes and destroy them! Each of our planes has different skills, creating different combat modes and results for them. How to match and use different types of planes is the fun and challenge for players.

Surviv.io - 2D Battle Royale

Surviv.io - 2D Battle Royale

This game is a fantastic top-down battle-royale that is perfect for newer gamers or those who cant run games with higher graphic requirements. it’s simple to learn, and rewarding to play. The developers have been updating the game constantly, adding tons of free cosmetic skins and other game modes.

The problem is the hackers. This game is absolutely filled with hackers. Almost every game, there is probably a hacker playing. They don’t try to hide it, and with the games Spectator Mode, you can watch it all happen. Hard aim-locking is the most common one, and watching the recoil on high-spread weapons, or my personal favourite, the hard-lock melee attacks, really ruins the game. And its not a rare occurrence; it happens all the time in solo, duo, or group.

This game has a serious problem with hackers and teamers.

I have been playing this game for at least 3-4 years now, and I remember when it was not filled to the brim with hackers and teamers that practically outnumber actual players. But now it’s often difficult to make it through early- and mid-game without being killed by one of the many hackers or by a bullet shower from a pair (or more!) of teamers. And if I do manage to not run into any players belonging to either of those two groups of degenerates, or if I manage to beat the odds and kill them, it is a near-certainty that they will be among the last players remaining in late-game, and I will likely lose to them then. It is very frustrating to spend lots of time playing a game and getting fairly decent at it, make it to the last 3 alive in a match after getting 10 kills (not a ton but a solid match for me at least) only to have the other two players just shoot at me and not at each other at all, killing me. Due to the fact that I encounter a hacker or teamers about every other match at least, and that I usually lose to them, I think I would get about 2X the number of matches where I survive into late game if it were not for the hackers and teamers. And upon making it to late game, I would be able to actually win a fair amount more as well, 25-50% (late game is going to accumulate the highest skilled players, making it more difficult than early and mid once hackers and teamers are out of the equation). While there are many actual legit players that are better than me which does not bother me, it does bother me that so many opportunities to win are stolen by illegitimate players. I would be able to greatly improve my late-game skills and strategy if the hackers and teamers were removed, because this would give me about twice the number of late-game matches.

Barnard’s Star

Barnard’s Star

In the 25th century, humanity began to travel the stars. Barnard’s Star, a mere 6 light-years away and home to the closest habitable exoplanet, was first to be colonized. However, even with the blindingly fast velocity of half the speed of light, the trip takes 12 Earth years. So when the colonists ran into trouble, they were on their own.

The trouble they faced took two main forms. First, their robot companions who served as butlers and guardians staged a rebellion and broke free of their human masters. It got ugly quickly – blood and bolts covered many a space station floor. The second was the Critters: weird, otherworldly brutes from the other side of the galaxy who arrived on the scene shortly after the colonists from a nearby wormhole. The colonists were able to estalish contact them and even tried to enlist their help against the mechanical threat, but negotiations were cut short when the Critter ambassadors ate all the humans they were supposed to be talking to.

These three factions – Humans, Robots, and Critters – are locked in a vicious struggle for control of the galaxy. Now is the time to rise up, lead your faction, and fight for your life. The fate of the universe is in your hands.

Features

  • 3 factions (Humans, Robots, and Critters) with 7 character classes per faction

  • Each character has unique attacks and abilities

  • 2 maps, each with unique tactical opportunities such as teleporters and destructible cover

  • 3 layouts for each map, for a total of 6 different playable fields

  • Play offline vs. AI or a friend (or even pit two AI’s against each other, if you just want to watch)

  • Challenge friends and strangers with online multiplayer

For a comprehensive list of all the fighters in the game and their abilities, see the wiki .

Hunger Dungeon

Hunger Dungeon

TL;DR: Test the game, be fair with it. It’s a MOBA, it’s fun. Don’t mind the graphics and all that stuff. If you’re reading the TL;DR you probably don’t have that much time and SHOULD BE TRYING/PLAYING THE GAME!

First of all, Hunger Dungeon is a MOBA(A.K.A Multiplayer Online Battle Arena). In this game, you (normally) fight 3 opponents in an arena. You have to kill your opponents in various rounds until you reach the final round, where you have to collect energy cristals to escape the dungeon, while you try to survive hunger, buy scrolls and fight the other players. There’s also team deathmatch, that’s exactly the same team, but at most it’s 3v3. And lastly Dragon Mode, where 4 players fight together to defeat 3 Dragons and get their scrolls.

Real player with 54.7 hrs in game

Very fun fast paced battles, no two heroes play the same.

Easy to play, hard to master.

The amount of build options availible is amazing. You earn gold during rounds, and between rounds you can buy spell scrolls and equipment. Each hero has an activated ability, and 1-4 passives. Most heros have 3 spell scroll slots, and 2 equipment slots. Making for quite a few friendship breaking combos.

The only cons i have found myself so far besides a couple to expect bugs, and it not having quickmatch system, Is that some of the game mechanics are not fully explained, so i find myself giving tips to others almost every game. ^_^
