Crypto Is Dead
it’s a very zen game, with random bills and rules being a plus in my book. if there were any complaints, it would be about the pens and the scale, they don’t seem to serve any purpose.

I want to like this game, I really do. For the size of the game and the 2 hours I put in upon writing this I feel I have enough time spent to see the problems, so let me list them as Pro’s and Con’s.
Pro’s:
-
I get a huge Papers Please vibe from this and that can be a good thing to some, as some people like work simulations and feel they can have fun doing such thing without real life problems.
-
The challenge aspect is nice, you start off generally putting out lot’s of notes and overtime it gets more busier and you see yourself putting less out there, I suck at numbers and letters so I’m really slow but I don’t find myself bankrupted.

This is arguably the best game of 2021, I’ve only played at least 10 minutes or so but that doesn’t disregard the fact that this game is made with complete effort making it such an amazing game, the 10 minutes I have played was the best 10 minutes I have had on any steam game, no game can compete to this beast of a $2 game, thank you Bro Code for making such an enjoyable and amazing game.

Gunslugs 3:Rogue Tactics
Disclaimer: won this game in a competition, so I didn’t pay for it, but did not receive it in exchange for this review.
Excellent randomly generated shoot ‘em up. Has stealth elements which, while not a major part of the game, do make it much more interesting than just a simple shooter. Difficult, but definitely has the “just one more go” factor. Very simple to pick up with loads to discover as you continue to play through.
Has the 8-bit feel that we expect from this dev.

For the half hour I have played so far it is very enjoyable. I can’t wait to see this expanded on and built up. The atmosphere is set from the beginning with the oddly shaped people and the almost too soothing music. The TV’s play their audio in distorted ways that are eerie.
When you get into the game play, the evil entities were creepy and some of their mechanics made it hard to go willingly around some corners. This paired with the uncertainty of how to effectively use the talismans, provided quite the desperate horror when confronting said entities. All in all, I enjoyed the experience, and will come back to add anything when I return to play with my Twitch audience.

Definitely underrated,
theres a few things i would like to say about this game, first of all its well made and the devs definitely ARENT lying when they say the levels are procedural generated, they definitely are and it adds a whole new aspect to the confusion we love in horror games (and its the good confusion, not the “AHHHH i dont know where im going confusion”). Some levels might take 10 seconds and some might take 10 minutes. The audio is good, it suits this type of pixelated game, however i do wish the spirits had creepier moaning or screaming noises. As for music ? Theres not much but its not really necessary for building tension

Alchemic Dungeons DX
Last week I bought the original Alchemic Dungeons on 3DS. Then just yesterday I found out this came out and bought it immediately. It is challenging and fair. Every time I died it was because I screwed up and didn’t use the right tactic. I love this game and I plan on playing it many many hours.

Criminally underrated game.
While it looks simple and generic and starts very easy, the final 3 dungeons offer a good challenge. While it seems like a relatively generic roguelike, the crafting system does add a lot of depth to resource management, and while it looks simplistic it will keep you on your toes. I also think the UI is reallly good and easy to sue when you get used to it .
It also has a lot of distinct classes (8 initially with a secret one to)

Impossible Pixels
Love this game! Reminds me a little bit of old arcade games but with a more modern twist to it. I really like the music and the art as well. Overall I think this is a great game, even though sometimes it makes me a bit mad with how hard it is, so I’d definitely call this a rage game :D also there is a lot of flashing lights on the screen, but I think it’s okay for anyone who doesn’t have a problem with migrens and stuff. I actually think those flashing lights are the thing that make the game unique and different to all the other games.

Good game. In later levels gets little bit hard. Nice soundtrack.

So Much Blood
So Much Blood shows the potential of being a good game. It’s certainly not a lemon by any means. However, the flaws in the game, both fundamental and game design choices, make it a game that only genre fanatics will enjoy. The mass appeal wears off very quickly especially because you are limited to horizontal shooting and the procedurally generated rooms are too repetitive. There is, however, so much blood.
4.5/10

The first time I started the game, the first thing that hit me is the music. The music is good. The game is addicting, I’ve played for one hour straight and didn’t stop. The levels or stages have different feels to them. All the bosses are fun to try to beat. (Then lose all the lives) When you die you don’t lose everything, (ex. points) whick makes it feel like every life lost has did somthing good for me. The shop is done extremely well. It’s easy to navigate.
The music gets old quickly but you can easily turn it off and play your own music. The level design is bland. However since the levels are randomly generated, there is always a new level every time you start a new game.
