Convoy

Convoy

Most everyone will use FTL as a benchmark to test rouge like games, so I guess I will compair and contrast on how Convoy stands up to the gold standard of FTL.

The first thing right off the bat with convoy is that the game is much easyer than FTL. This may be seen as ether a good thing or a bad thing seeing that a lot of FTL’s claim to fame is its unfair dificulty and numerous game overs, but I for one see it as more of a good thing because there seems to always be a way to win in Convoy whereas in FTL a lot of the games have you already losing before you start because of RNG.

Here comes another FTL comparison review. I just have to do it because reading the other ones is painful.

I keep reading these reviews where people say the combat is easy or that there is no depth to it and I just have to wonder how far they’ve managed to get.

Because if you just order your vehicles to fire at random cars without giving it a second thought, you get shredded rather quite quickly about midgame, no matter how powerful weapons you might have.

So yes - let me start off with - the meat of the game, the combat. Let’s imagine FTL-like is a genre, then this definitely fits in that genre. However, to make an FPS analogy, this is to more of a Battlefield to FTL’s Team Fortress. The two games are undeniably similar in their mechanics, but the way you play them is completely different.

So you’ve read the description of the game and you’re now looking at the comments for guidance. Take a look at my video posted above, I give you everything you need to know about the game and then some.

As for the game itself, it plays like it was carried over/ported over from mobile devices. There are no settings in the game so be prepared to be blasted by music at launch. There is no way to actually exit the game other than stopping the program directly. The gameplay is slow and clunky. Overall, it’s only a dollar (USD) and if you play it more than once it will have paid for itself as a time waster.

Oh No! Bugs!

Oh No! Bugs!

This game looks pretty, but it’s not always what it seems. It’s fun for the first few minutes but then that’s it, you’re doing the same thing over and over again with no difference but a few characters here and there. It has potential but it also needs much more content to feel fulfilling, anyways, in it’s current state, I do not recomment.

5/10

A Co-Op Arcade Game

https://youtu.be/ndp2NbBz3EY

  • The gameplay is enjoyable. You mainly go around pushing blocks at bugs trying to squash them. You have to be careful though because blocks will bounce back at you if you miss, and you must avoid getting hit by the bugs.

  • Relaxing background music

  • Local and Online co-op

  • I felt the game as a whole was a bit too basic / lacking in content. After about 10minutes the game started to feel repetitive.

  • After you complete each level you get some coins and experience, which you can use to purchase cosmetic items for your character. Unfortunetely, I just didn’t feel like these were rewarding or worth while to work up to.

Speed Limit

Speed Limit

Speed Limit is a fun arcade action game, where the perspective of the gameplay and the gameplay style itself changes every 2 levels. It’s framed as what is essentially a non-stop action movie setpiece, where if you die, then the footage is rewound, and you are placed at the last checkpoint. The controls for each gameplay style are very responsive, and the different gameplay styles are all fun to play. I think the Pseudo-3D motorcycle sections are my favorite, because of the sense of speed, and the music during those parts is great. All the pixel art in the game is well done, and very detailed. The death animations and Pseudo-3D effects are of especial note. The sound effects are good, and the music is fast paced and fits the fast gameplay very well. The game is $12CDN, and I think that’s a fair price for what you get. You get the game of course, the artbook which has some really interesting insights and tidbits into the game’s development, as well as the soundtrack. There are quite a few achievements, and some of them are really challenging. It took me roughly 7 hours to 100% the game and get all the achievements. You can tell this game was made with care, and the developers really appreciated the games of the era that the game pays homage to.

“Crash. Test… DUMMY!”

https://youtu.be/mAgB9caZMC0

Here’s The Thing:

You are Bruce Willis but err, due to budget constraints…!! Hmm. Ahhh, you’re a washed-up action star who- no, that ain’t it either… You’re an untrained passenger on your way to going about your hipster life.

Suddenly, some SWAT team and or Secret Servicemen (because come on…) bust in on you and you’re a patsy of some sort!! So, like any reasonable law-abiding citizen, you come into a fully stocked pistol, and thus begins your unwilling joyride of awesome stunts and equally epic on-screen (and off) deaths~

In Zephyr you can:

  • Pilot your Zephyr in a first-person view

  • Bring down your opponents with your turret-mounted cannon

  • Collect power-ups to improve your Zephyr’s offensive and defensive capabilities

  • Race through beautiful, maze-like cyberpunk arenas

Note: Multiplayer is not supported for this release due to the age of the game, though all original multiplayer content is included.
