There Will Be Ink
Cool isometric twin-stick shooter with a fun theme/premise and surprisingly deep gameplay (cover mechanics, stamina, dodge-roll, wind affects bullets, etc.). Current Beta and Alpha campaigns offer a good mix of challenge and fun. I’ve only played solo and two player coop so far but enjoyed both. There are a few levels that I died a lot on but with some unit upgrades and a change of tactics I was(/we were) able to pass them after a few more attempts. Having a T-Rex with an uzi definitely helped on one occasion. Will be checking back to see what other content and customization is added before this title leaves early access!

Battlecruisers
Battlecruisers is a very finely polished and fun RTS (of sorts). The game revolves around two battlecruisers (surprise surprise), who are, for various reasons, hellbent on killing each other. The goal of the game: don’t get sunk. Both cruisers will start completely unarmed, and you will start out by constructing builder bays, which give you access to better structures and faster build speeds. Over time, you will build various different structures and weapons to defend your cruiser, while keeping the enemy cruiser under pressure. There’s a lot of weapons at your disposal: bombers, destroyers, kamikazes, rockets, lasers, satellites, and even nukes are at your disposal.

Information / Review English

Story / Gameplay
The battle cruiser was a kind of capital ship of the first half of the 20th century. They resembled battleships in displacement, armament, and cost, but differed slightly in shape and balance of attributes. Battlecruisers typically had thinner armor and a slightly lighter main cannon battery than modern battleships, which were installed on a longer hull with much higher engine power to achieve higher speeds. The first battlecruisers were developed in the UK as an evolution of the armored cruiser, while the dreadnought replaced the battleship before the dreadnought. The aim of the design was to overtake any ship with similar armament and hunt any ship with lesser armament; You should hunt down the slower, older armored cruisers and destroy them with heavy gunfire while avoiding combat with the more powerful but slower battleships. However, as more and more battlecruisers were built, they were increasingly used alongside the better-protected battleships.

Cool simple game.
Gameplay is not as easy as you think, you get only 3 lives to get as far as you can, and every time one of your band members “die” you have to start the stage over, game also requires fast reaction and strategic thinking since everything happens in real time.
Art is nice and tasteful, performance is as good as it gets, translation is ok.

Element TD
I love tower defense, and this game is solid. I played this back when it was a custom map and enjoyed it then; I think this version is better. There is room for improvement / enhancements and maybe we’ll see that in an update or sequel but if you dig TD, this game (that costs less than a latte) will do you right. My only real beef is that you can’t pause the game once it’s begun; that adds some excitement but is not what I’m personally looking for in this type of game (I like a more relaxed strategy experience), however it’s not overwhelming so no trouble.

Pros:
-Same feeling as the old WC3 and Dota2 custom maps,
-Nice design
-The sounds provide a good atmosphere to the game
-Good optimisation
-Runs on the crappiest machines too
Cons: Well there are a couple, unfortunately…
-Can’t see the range of towers before placing them
-Can’t target creeps with the towers manually
-Need to go into the specific towers description to check what I need to build it. In the custom games, it was already done that moving the cursor over an element it highlights what it will make buildable.

Mud and Blood
I love the Mud And Blood saga.
I’ve been a fan for 15 years of the games and the concept behind, which is kept in its Steam version.
It’s a one man army of a game which provides you with a strict and unforgiving challenge.
The game requires you to be alert and actively playing, focusing on each decision and movement in order to avoid certain defeat. This causes the player to descend in a trance, in which you need to be at 100% of your playing capabilities.
The game “fuses” MnB2 and MnB3 togheter, and are now being called classic and campaign.

As a tester for this game, there’s a reason why I have played this many hours of this game. I’m not the kind of guy who’s a masochist, especially as someone who can remember plenty of times raging at this game. Some moments will be easy and some moments will be randomly challenging. But for new players, especially those unfamiliar with the older Mud and Blood flash games, you will get screwed really hard in the first few or even several hours until you learn. However despite all those moments, I still come back and play this game again and again because its difficulty is what makes winning rewarding, and its randomness is what makes the game replayable. I’ve lost lots of men to standard rifleman, and other times I managed to beat back a element of infantry backed by armored vehicles.
