Circa Infinity
Immaculate.
In nearly every aspect, Circa Infinity has vastly exceeded my expectations, and sits well near the top of my list of most intelligently designed games I have ever played. A minimalist, puzzle platformer is the last game I would expect to enjoy this immensely amongst a sea of indie titles. I consider the genre to be the equivalent of the FPS of the indie scene: a sort of formulaic attempt to tread ground into the industry, but CI is perhaps the most exhilarating take on a tired template in every aspect of its design. It will consistently challenge your thinking while simultaneously presenting you every tool necessary to complete and appreciate the pieces which meld this wonderful game.

Circa Infinity (& Affinity). What a game.
Circa Infinity is a puzzle mode featuring 5 worlds. As you progress, you will encounter worlds that introduce new game concepts, especially in worlds 4 & 5. If you aim for completion, I advise you to take your time and carefully analyze the movement patterns. However, if you’re an achievement hunter (like me), perfect your hand-eye coordination, your visual memory layout of the levels, and your commitment into seeing this through to the end. I didn’t receive a proper warning, so I’ll warn you now: if you lack any of the three points I’ve listed above, DON’T go for Circa Infinity achievements.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX
In 1991, my father came home with a box. Then I (6) have no idea what a game console is. I have some Tomy Handheld toys and I play with them all day. Caveman speeder space vs.
We installed it with my father and connected it to the TV. My father did not buy a game, of course, there is one game in the console. Yes, as you guessed, that game is Alex Kidd’s miracle world.
My mind was blown at the beginning of the game. I said what is this game?
It didn’t take long for me to get used to it, and I made my way through my mother’s cries of “it’s enough, sleep now”. I came to the first boss, of course, at that time I did not know that his name was boss. I call it punch man paper head or something.

I haven’t read the other reviews for this game, I received it as a gift from one of my brothers so I just jumped straight into it. The Master System is my favourite console, I still buy games for it to this day, so I am very familiar with the original. While fundamentally flawed, it is still one of the best retro platformers of it’s era.
Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is a remastered version of the game, complete with new a handful of new levels, brand new graphics and a number of changes to bring it into the modern age. The new levels are a welcome addition, very fitting into the rest of the game and adds a nice breath of fresh air to those already completely familiar with the original. I’m not personally sold on the new graphics, I think they look nice, but I will take the legacy/original look any day.

Bloody Trapland
Briefly: Bloody Trapland is a precision platformer of distinct levels. Alright game, yet some game design choices are rage-inducing in a mixed way.
I bought this to a group of friends a couple of years ago to play together. We played it a couple of times (a few hours) and had fun trying to beat “the story missions”. I forgot about it for a long time before coming back on a couple of occasions to beat the rest of the levels by myself. I consider it one of the hardest platformers I’ve played.

Bloody Trapland is a platformer, where you need to reach the end of the levels, avoiding dying in brutal ways.
The game graphically is well made, it contains gore which is looks decent. Also, the different enviroments looks good in the game too. I didn’t saw any visual bug throughout my playtime.
Controlls are really easy. You need 5 buttons to play the game and you can play with controller too, but I recommend playing with a keyboard. Works like a charm!
Music and sounds are okay at first, however for me, later become bit repetitive, because of the few different sound effect and just a few music per world. However, it’s still okay.

Biba’s Adventures — Hardcore Platformer
A neat challenge I was looking for with speedrunning potential. Although its kinda messed up that Super Meat Boy copied Volrest’s game, kinda weird for those devs.

Garbage copy pasted unity assets, annoying stock music, boring and short aswell.

Big NEON Tower VS Tiny Square
I love the arcade aesthetic of this game, and its very much like the original on coolmathgames.com, the only problem is, when i close the app it doesn’t register as closed and i have to shut down steam if i want to play it again. edit: the bug i mentioned is fixed

Challenging but fun platformer game. Sooooo relieved there are checkpoints throughout to save my progress! Never thought being laughed at by Security boxes could feel so…personal haha :(. Love the neon theme and music, feels like the 80s.

Eddie Hill in the Curse of the Skull Medallion
Great game, difficulty is pretty high, and that makes it worth the grind to complete it, especially in one go. Incredible that a speedrun mode is also built in the game.
