Hunter’s Arena: Legends

Hunter’s Arena: Legends

A bit of a hot take.

I’d say I gave this game more than a fair shake. I slogged through it as courtesy to a friend who gifted it to me.

I was lured in by the idea of this being a unique fighting game. The characters look cool, the fighting styles looked saucy, and the battle royale was just extra. When i got into it though, i found every encounter frustrating, win or lose.

My main gripe are the fights themselves, victors are decided by whoever rushes down 1st and simply guesses right. But that’s not all, the way the game tells you to block isn’t the correct way to defend, dodges do nothing, inputs seem to vanish into smoke, and your 1 functional escape skill can be easily activated on accident.

Not sure what the negative reviews are about, Most people dont like to look at things in perspective. This is a new developer and this is their first game being put out, and with that being kept in mind the game is actually very good. but most importantly IT WORKS! I cant tell you how many multi billion dollar companies put out games that are poorly optimized garbage (blizzard).

This game does have its bugs obviously, but most are fairly rare. nothing that cant be patched out as long as people are reporting it. But i REALLY want to emphasize the optimization of the game. I experience zero lag, no rubber banding, no input lag, and no random disconnects. In terms of PvP combat, this game plays better in PvP than any other MMO that has mass PvP or open world PvP. This includes tera (especially tera), BDO, BnS, etc. There IS some quirkyness tho that happens when chasing and tagging a enemy down. Attacks from melee seem to hit when they shouldnt hit, but thats honestly the only weird thing ive noticed thus far and its not anything to rage about considering you can not flee from fights anyway since the opponent will eventually catch up to you through the wind current mechanic.

Omen of Sorrow

Omen of Sorrow

Monsters of classic horror and mythology clash to take back the night!

In a hidden underworld ruled by creatures of the night, a new terror has awakened! Omen of Sorrow brings monsters of horror, literature and mythology together for a fighting game experience unlike any other. Inspired by numerous arcade classics but offering its own unique innovations and mature aesthetics, Omen of Sorrow positively bleeds style!

Featuring a roster inspired by such icons as Frankenstein’s monster and Egyptian high priest Imhotep, this traditional 4-button fighting game rewards or punishes players based on how aggressive their playstyle is, putting a skill-centric spin on combat while keeping the experience accessible to newcomers. Powered by Unreal Engine 4, Omen of Sorrow’s 2.5D brawling spans a multitude of detailed locations with handcrafted animations and cinematic finishers, all set to a masterful soundtrack by composer Francisco Cerda.

The previously downloadable bloody countess Erzsébet now joins the main roster, alongside a massive blood dragon at her command. With a dozen vicious combatants at your command, who will you lead to victory, and who will fall to your bloodlust?

Features:

  • Select from a varied roster of characters inspired by horror classics.

  • Use cinematic finishers to take down opponents in style!

  • Explore single-player modes against the CPU or challenge friends online.

  • Strategize on the fly and turn the tide of battle through aggressive play!

Kindred Fates: Combat Arena Alpha

Kindred Fates: Combat Arena Alpha

I am hyped for the future of this game.

If you wanna buy it and you are scared of the price, dont forget the price includes alpha, beta and full game access.

Buy it If you believe in the devs (they are the best devs you can dream of) and you want to support them.

This is only PvP but the full game will be an Open World Monster Battling RPG. Keep in mind that this game in its current state has bugs and isnt perfectly optimized (alpha). I just cant wait for the beta and hope many more people gonna buy it so the PvP community to test Alpha and Beta becomes bigger.

Edit: With the alpha being out for almost a year now I got to say the game is still fun and the devs are great!

Gameplay

We will start off with the general gameplay and how it feels.

The gameplay is a fast paced real-time action packed gameplay, A style very unique to a monster taming game. But Skymill does not stop there, they also have what has to be my favorite part of the game, Types as a play style. What this means is that instead of your normal “Fire deal x2 damage to grass” that we see so often Kindred fates instead makes it so that its your player style that counters the type not your damage. This leaves much more room for player skill than other games. Here is an example of what I mean when I saw types as a play style.

Personally, I like the game. Though I do find it a bit too easy. Only a couple of battles so far have taken any real skill. But the story, while kind of cliched, so far is at least kind of fun. I feel like it would be a great multiplayer game as it stands. Since a human player would boost the difficulty considerably.

Besides the easy difficulty, the other issue is that you can get trapped in combos pretty easily. And there’s no way to break out of a combo once you get caught in it. The game does at least have a decent recover. But it would be nice if you could counter, dodge, block, or cancel an opponents move while in a combo. The last three would already be possible if the recovery time was shorter.

It needs some polish, but I will be hoping for updates to make the posing more flexible.

The forearm sorely needs a way to be rotated on more than one axis so you can turn the wrist and minor things like that.

But besides minor bugs and that this is the best Rock’Em’Sock’Em Robots type thing I have ever played lol.

Sword Mans

Sword Mans

My hope was that this game could fill the hole in my heart left by Gang Beasts and it’s successively worsening updates, and I was not dissapointed. Sword Mans is a silly and lightearted fighting game in which you play a sword whose wielder drags like a ragdoll behind you. This leads to an unusual combat in which you are trying to swipe at your opponents whilst protecting the wielder that limply follows you. My girlfiiend and I laughed uproariously on more than a few occassions.

Four player multiplayer is where this game really shines. The controller support is also nice. A surprisingly diverse weapon selection also introduces an interesting element of strategy. The large selection of stages helps to keep multiplayer fresh as well. I liked the inclusion of both cooperative and competetive game modes, as well as the ability to include bots in versus mode to keep things hectic, The physics are hilarious and the stages are fun to smash apart and varied. You can tell that an indie dev put a lot of love into this game, and the developer has promised periodic content updates which is exciting. All things considered I enjoyed this purchase, and feel as if I got exactly what I wanted. An easy to pick up local multiplayer game that’s funny and great with friends.

Deathmatch - Fight to be the last one standing with the highest score in this classic game mode.

Gem Chase - Hold onto the precious gem for as long as you can while avoiding your fellow players.

This is a very simple pirate game with 3 modes and minimalist graphics. Music is acceptable in quality. Map is way too small. Controls are responsive but feel more like you’re controlling an RC car from an 8- or 16-bit title than a pirate ship.

There are no bots or an obvious way to host a dedicated server. Player counts are so extremely low that you must bring your own friends to make this game worthwhile.

For an occasional casual game, it’s of acceptable quality and quite a bit of fun, but if you don’t have friends to bring along or want a long-term game to invest time into, I suggest going with a different offering.

Become a Gladiator VR : 1v1 PVP

Become a Gladiator VR : 1v1 PVP

You wake up in the middle of the Colosseum with no memory. You start your struggle to survive in the Colosseum without knowing who you are and where slaughtering is just entertainment. In the middle of the Colosseum, all you can rely on is your weapons, shields and skills. It’s up to you whether you’re going to be a Gladiator that cuts off the heads of countless enemies, or you’re going to be one of the thousands of bodies that can’t be recorded anywhere in the history books.

“Become A Gladiator VR” is not a perfect physical simulation game containing real-world like interactions. This is a PVP specialized VR action game that prioritizes action itself rather than focusing on historical research. It is designed to allow players to feel and learn when and how to swing swords and shields, which is temporarily impossible to control or immobilize due to collisions between weapons and shields.

Due to the characteristics of the game, players may have to move around a lot, so please refer to the precautions below.

  • 2x2m space is required due to possible injury or real damage to property.

  • Due to the above reasons, free movement is not supported, so it is recommended gamers use a stick to move the characters in the center of the VR area.

  • Sufficient stretching is required before playing to prevent injury.

  • A 10-minute break is recommended after playing the game for between 2 and 30 minutes or more.

Please provide contructive feedback on playing conditions, inconveniences experienced, and balance issues, etc.

Fight Crab

Fight Crab

Greetings!

It’s Very Good so far.

The best bits:

  • The feel. Bit of an “Armored Core” / Mechwarrior vibe to the control scheme, but with the added tactility of simulated physics

  • The UI. Smacks of Dreamcast-era arcade games

  • Customization. Pick and experiment with favorite strategies and weapons for the crabs you unlock; build their stats as you see fit

  • Co-op. As far as I can tell, your buddy can jump into any part of the campaign, without restrictions, and build up their own crab

I love this game. It’s got a sense of humor about itself; it’s interesting; there’s depth and variety…

I have not had this much fun with a game in years. I’m almost 40 now and most of the wonderment is gone for me with with gaming in general…I bought this for my kid for his birthday and grabbed it for me too, figuring I would sneak an hour in here and there with him–

Well he moved on to a different game near instantly and here I am grinding and looking for time to play this game. I like developing strategies and weird co-op tactics. It’s awesome to be excited to get home from work and actually want to play a game. I haven’t been this obsessed with a game in years. I’m not sure why but I love it.
