Kasmo
3/10
idea is good, but was served “FROZEN”
content for 5 minutes is not enough.

Kasmo is a “template flip”, that is to say, it’s a “game” that has been produced by copying a game template or using a game construction kit, and changing a few things. In this case it was a Unity tutorial/demo for making a basic arcade “missile defense” game.
This is deplorably low quality bundle trash. No professional effort was made in terms of game development, copying a template/using a game construction kit requires no talent, and unsurprisingly produces products that have little to no value as games, especially when compared to the work of professional developers who create genuine products for gamers. It’s almost as bad as an outright asset flip.

ThrustLander
I really love Thrustlander. Originally it was a launch title for the much vaunted new Atari VCS Linux Super Console that came out last year. I have to say as soon as I saw it, I wanted it. Though there was nothing else on the VCS for me to buy so I forgot about that idea. Then I noticed it was getting a PC release. I immediately put it in my wishlist. So I am really happy that today I get to play it.
Well I have been playing it for months actually. I was one of the select few who got to play it early. Below is my review of a truly great game. Where other modern retro games fail this one has succeeded.

This is a great game, some real retro goodness. It brings back memories of Lunar Lander, Thrust, and Oids. While simple in nature, it gets quite hard later on. The graphics are excellent, the little touches like the landing gear extracting while refueling are top notch. The controls are fluid and responsive, I’m using an xbox one controller for it, and the game is quite fun. If you’re a fan of retro shooters, get this game.

Watch Your Ride - Bicycle Game
pros - Nice, took few hours to complete main campaign, but it also has procedural infinity mode where you can play as much as you want, also replay some levels to get achievements. Has multiplayer and splitscreen mode, but havent tried yet.
cons - not too much levels (around 50 tracks), will wait for update, hope dev will add more

Watch Your Ride is an intensely fun, nonstop action, deviously challenging game. If you’ve got a grudge to settle with a friend, this is the perfect way to do it. You’ll be bouncing between the amazing thrill of victory and the crushing shame of defeat at a ridiculous speed.
Technically speaking, the game runs smooth and we never encountered any problems with bugs, bad UI design, etc… The art looks great, the levels are well designed and tough, but fair. The local multiplayer is where this game really shines, though. There’s no way we could possibly describe how fun this is to play with friends, so just check it out for yourself!

ALTF4
I’d recommend this game if you like Getting Over with Bennett Foddy.
It is not as difficult but it puts way more pressure on you as a player, just like a mox ruby underneath a herd of donkeys eating lettuce filled wraps of peanut butter.
When you beat you will glad its over, but instantly nostalgic, just like Zelda 2.
Or some may say, its like stepping on a lego, cutting your foot, on the way to get cookies from the oven, and you drop your cold glass of milk, with shards of glass everywhere, and go head first into an open oven, while realizing you burnt the cookies, only to take a bite of charred chocolate chip. You come back the next day, and play ALT-F4, that is what this game is like. =)

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, ‘If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.’. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- ‘Don’t ever smoke. Please don’t put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because this game gave me cancer anyway.

DECO:BLOCK SIMULATOR
Block play with simple and intuitive operation
Assemble various blocks to create your own work!
Castle and house
Furniture and tools
Cars and planes
Please try variously depending on your ideas.
Sometimes it’s possible to use physical calculations to destroy your work and enjoy it…
If you stop physics, your work will be restored and you can enjoy the collapse with peace of mind.
There is no combat, no exploration, no collecting items, no epic storyline, no vast setting or deep background.
Down the River
This is not a casual game. The controls are difficult, the physics are difficult and everything will try to drive you mad.
You try to steer your kayak down the river towards the goal and you do this as fast as you can! But beware of obstacles and rocks that will destroy you if you bump into them too hard!
-
Use only the paddle to steer your kayak
-
Don’t crash into things
-
Don’t drop your camp gear (sleeping bag)
-
Pick up camp gear after you dropped it
-
Paddling requires stamina
Giant Bear Rampage! ☢️🐻
I have more good things to say than bad things about this game so let’s get the one bad thing out of the way real quick first.
The controls. There’s sadly no controller support; which would really help. It is playable with a mouse and keyboard but (at least for me) took a lot of key rebinds to find something that;s comfortable for me.
If you can get past that, the game is pretty fun. It’s silly, it’s straightforward and there’s something about senselessly smashing buildings, stomping on people and wrecking rocks, trees and cars that helps me kill an hour or so when I don’t feel like playing much else.

Ever wondered, “I wonder what it would be like to be Godzailla?” This is the game for you.
Destroy buildings, cars, streetlights, telephone booths, dumpsters, park benches and bollards with a swipe of your left and right paw. Cackle with glee as you use your mutengenic powers to level city blocks or turn hapless citizens, police and members of the national guard into puffs of confetti, grow large before exploding or into cute rubber ducks.
This game is great to kill an hour or two.

I have never actually played one of these games before. I only played around 40ish minutes and didn’t get too far. It is fun and addicting but as you could have guessed it’s also pretty frustrating. I would recommend it for anyone who want’s a challenge. If you want to watch me take my first stab at it check out the link below.

Default Unreal Physics and Assets AKA DUPA Project
Simple yet amusing FPP puzzler with physics, unlimited bullets, limited graphics, secret extras, poor puns, lousy jokes and a short lesson of Polish. 20 levels (or more), 10 dictionary pages (unless something changes), several obscure references (some over 50 years old). Never intended to be an overly serious project, started as an attempt to learn basics of Unreal Engine, grew to the point where I wasn’t afraid of showing it to my friends. Don’t expect a ground breaking game and you shall receive.
