Battlerite

Battlerite

I can’t praise this game’s design enough. I don’t think there’s a competitive game that is better than this game from a design perspective. I know this game gets compared to Dota or League of Legends a lot, but it’s really more like a top-down fighting game with simple inputs.

This game just doesn’t have parts that aren’t fun. The games are always short, and even if you lose the first two rounds, your opponents aren’t so overpowered that you don’t have a chance for the rest of the game, there’s tons of potential for comebacks and a game is never over till it’s over.

Sadly, no matter how good it is, I can’t recommend a game whose developer misled their playerbase and abused their trust.

See, during a time of ever-dwindling population of Battlerite, they announced a Royale game mode “to fill a void in Battlerite” (dev blog ). It’s fair to say that the majority of Battlerite players never asked specifically for a Battle Royale, but the community ran along with it, considering “new game modes” had always been mentioned on its roadmap and people understood the game could use a more casual experience.

Bomb Bots Arena

Bomb Bots Arena

The old school bomberman action is back, now with a twist. Skills can be deadly, give you advantage or save you depending on Your choice! All customization is completely optional, there is no Pay2Win and never will be. You can only pay for cosmetic stuff that doesn’t give you advantage on the bettle field AND if you would rather grind for cosmetics - That’s possible too!, Blast your way through friends & foes, climb the ladder and become the #1 across all platforms. If you ever played BomberMan 2 on DS (This didn’t come out in US) - this is a dream come true. Games are short, hectic and every single time you can learn something new from encountered enemies. You have never seen everything because theres always something new to discover. See you on the field!

[EDIT]: With 354+ Hours played now, BBA is Officially my favourite game. With ranked play , daily tournaments (with prizes!) and battle royale out, i’m having a blast. I didn’t think this game would hold my attention but honestly if you join the discord and hang out with the community, it’s a fun, friendly and yet surprisingly competitive environment.

[Original review]: Honestly this is a decent bomberman style game. I’ve searched high and low for a good online multiplayer bomberman game and always came up empty handed. A crappy flash game here, a dumb phone game with loads of advertisements there.. (konami’s not doing anything with the franchise. it’s sad)

Engine Evolution 2020

Engine Evolution 2020

having followed the development of the game since its earliest days, i can definitely say that the project has come an extremely long way, despite there still being a ton of obstacles ahead

it might not be the most polished or complex motorcycle racing game out there, but it provides a fresh and original perspective - with racing on temporary road courses at the forefront, which is a concept only explored by the TT titles; the main difference is, those are full-fledged AA games with a corresponding price tag, this - an indie game largely developed by one/two people, completely free (if you spend the time on it) and still largely satisfying to play against others

Real player with 47.8 hrs in game

I’m going to start off by saying that this game has major improvement potential. For a free racing game this is an amazing game, the graphics are very good, the physics are decent and the a.i. is very well coded. I do have to say thanks to the devs for putting so much work into this game as I know there are not many of them. Updates are released pretty frequently but there are still improvements to be made.

I do have to comment on how this game is not optimized well. The game in total is around 4GB and I don’t see why a game like this has to take up so much space. Even though the graphics are very good you do need a good graphics card such as the 1080 or the 2060. As I stated with optimization I do feel like the game could be optimized further with the graphics as well with the storage. I am no coder or developer so I do not know how much work this would be but if it is easy and possible I feel like it is something that the developers should be working on as there is a GPU and chipset crisis going on in the world right now.

Great game to play with friends!

It has awesome gameplay, very cool retro looking graphics and a catchy soundtrack which you might find you self hum along to at times

Performance is really good, the game runs on pretty much any computer and doesn’t require expensive hardware to enjoy

Everything is of course not perfect though. There’s some issues like balancing of spells and classes could be better and they currently only support P2P multiplayer so playing with someone far away from you might not result in a good experience

Awesome game to pick up and play with a couple friends. I also found a responsive discord community with both devs and players being active meaning there will always be people to play with.

Was further positively surprised by a pretty prevalent skill expression which made it really rewarding to discover new combos and practice them. All over great game! :)

(April 15 2021) 9 Months since the Last Update… This EA is still a turd!

IMPROVEMENTS THAT MUST BE MADE

(NOTE I WAS FORUM BANNED FOR MAKING THIS POST)

With 42 hours of play time logged combined with frequent server checks, I can confidently state there is no one playing this EA.

Now combine my in game and server observations with the fact that other than 1 decaying cabin in Westburg and that the only other buildings in this EA are mine which I am allowing to decay because NO ONE IS PLAYING, the Dev has failed to make, even in Early Access, anything that resembles a game! And as result of the ridiculous grind that only gets worse with the introduction of additional content with each new update, Medieval Towns, at this stage, is sadly, nothing more than a “Grind Simulator”… resulting in a lack of interest and 0 server population.

Ok, I just went through the reviews and message boards and it was kind of hard to read. As a dev myself, I know the hard work that goes into making games and this game impressed me from the start. I’m a geek for anything medieval so naturally I bought this game last month. There is really no learning curve so you can jump right in and start playing. I built a cabin, spent some time in prison for punching my cabin, harvested resources, etc. Eventually I moved out to the woodland areas of the north to build my own town (‘cause I wanted to be “King in the North”), and this is where the bulk of my time was spent. I had walls, guard towers, thousands in wood, stone, and iron. I even met another player which was rare. It was a big grind to harvest resources but it was fun.

This game is absolute dogshit, but i have seen worse. Multiplayer is finicky as hell but fun when it works. The souds are loud and rough, but hilarious. If you plan on getting this game for the cringe then get it because it is absolutely beautiful. Otherwise buy a copy for you and your friends as well. I honestly love this game. I just wish the dev would keeps working on it and fix networking issues. 8/10 would recommend

This game has massive potential if the developer just put more effort instead of leaving it to die. this is why alot of people frown on indie games and see them as “Money Grabbing”.

It has its moments for such a cheap price i suggest you buy it it is better than most negative games and actually has some fun elements and great graphics. 3/5

Spartan Firefight

Spartan Firefight

Really enjoyable 2d shooter. You are dropped in a small map and have to fight waves of aliens. There is also an ai deathmatch mode against space marines. Each weapon feels distinct and has a tactical purpose. Upgrade system and unlockables will have you coming back for more. Shooting is limited to high or low aiming. So use of the terrain and ducking is something you need to master. Music is good, but somewhat limited selection. Developer continues to support the game with updates. Would recommend.

Great game, only thing I dislike is that you can only have one linked account, I tried to have my Xbox connected to my game data on here, but that wouldn’t work due to the fact that I have already linked my phones game data, other than that it’s a great game.

I think this game is simple, easy and interesting.

However, I have decided the name appropriately, so I want to change it. Let me know if the developer knows.

Thank you.
