The Shimmering Horizon and Cursed Blacksmith
You opened your eyes, but nothing could be seen.
Suddenly, one string of dim light shone through the darkness.
As you followed the light of hope, it slowly turned from azure to crimson.
Once again, your consciousness faded away…
You opened your eyes, and found yourself in the middle of nowhere.
A mysterious girl, with her monotonous tone, spoke of various confusing matters.
Safe House. Purpose. Erosion. Death.
The only way to grasp the truth is to hold on the black sword of yours,
and fight against “This World,” no matter the consequences…
“Go explore the dungeon, you only need to focus on that thing right now."
“It’s nearly impossible for you to get through the dungeon all by yourself, even though you are holding that powerful dark sword."
“If enemies come in your way, the only thing you can do is to defeat them."
“Lighting this place up, that would my duty…"
“I will stay with you right here. Try all you can, through hell and fire’s end…"

IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO READ THROUGH ALL THESE EXPLANATION JUST SKIP TO THE LAST PARAGRAPH.

Disclaimer: I actually love this game, but I also love many other games and lying is possibly the dumbest thing anyone can ever do, so I’m offering you my completely honest and objective opinion about the things at hand, which comes from an experienced player and someone who plans on continuing to play this game.
Also, if you like this game, check out the “Elminage” series, “Elminage Original” and “Elminage Gothic” are on steam and you’re going to love them.

Chair Simulator
This game has given me purpose in life. I sit down. I stand up. I sit down. I stand up. The simplicity, yet challenge in this task represents the dualism of the universe. The strain from standing up relieved from the bliss that is sitting down. From the short 75 minutes I spent on this game before writing the review has morphed my entire outlook on life. I have learned the pain of death, the stress of pain, and the stresslessness of sitting. I sit and think. Think about the meaning of life. Think about my purpose here on this earth. And I have received enlightenment. I am the chair. I sit here with my arms on its doing exactly what it’s doing. I am becoming a vessel for the universe to pass through and maybe sit, gifting me with knowledge. I was lost before finding this game. Mindlessly going through the factory of life without much thought, this game has opened my eyes to the possibilities of this world that are sitting right in front of us. Overall, this game has been an eye opening experience that I would recommend everyone should try.

! You came. You sat. You conquered!
You’ve warmed countless seats, leaving a deep and indelible impression on each and every one!
Well done, sitlord.
! But…
! Sitting has changed you.
! You look down, now, at these limbs, at all this sinew and flesh. It seems so excessive, doesn’t it? Limbs, flaying. Appendages. Poorly-designed. A bit old-fashioned. Outdated? The real you has been trapped here, hasn’t it? Here, in this prison made of flesh.
It’s a thought you’ve entertained before, isn’t it? Privately. In dreams.

Pretty nice so far.
A little more content would be nice and it would be also nice to know, when you reached the end of the game or level or anything. Or something like: “Final Boss!”. ;)

Your Sword Is So Big
The Final Boss of Asset Flips
This game is a very cheap & obvious asset flip comprised of stock content. There are a number of stock maps for you to progress through as you fight stock enemies whilst gaining XP to unlock more stock moves from the games stock combat system. One such move allows you to perform “a series of strokes” - this is the only series of strokes you will be performing as there is no nudity in this game despite the nudity and sexual content tags on the steam page.
It’s cheap, so there’s that, but it does cost time, and your time is better spent elsewhere.

Bugs and missing features
The trailer for the game is quite nicely done, but shows essential mechanics/features of the game which do not work or are not available yet! This is real bad.
[[[[- When I press TAB (ingame on the left screen side), the control should actually be displayed. However, this is immediately hidden again. (there is no menu for controlls in the main screen just graphics settings).
- When I press the left mouse button, I hear a sword swinging, but the character neither picks up the sword nor swings it. Nor does anything happen when I press the right or middle mouse button. So the complete attack animations are missing (for more read below)]]]]

Hellbound: the Awakening
Hellbound: the Awakening is a fresh take on the highly popular Metroidvania genre. With its beautiful and dark 2D hand-drawn artwork, and presented in an over-the-top view perspective. The game’s lore is heavily inspired by Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy poem. Players will be taken on a challenging journey, from a mysterious village surrounded by black plague, to Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Violence, and other circles of Hell.
Key Elements:
-
Unique gameplay: at the start of a new game, you will receive a Tarot card reading, that will alter that specific game run and your abilities.
-
Beautiful 2D hand drawn artwork and animation
-
Challenging levels across various circles of Hell, horrifying bosses, and a large number of unique enemies
-
Upgradable special abilities and equip-able items
-
Large Interconnected Map
-
Ability Locked Progression
-
Mesmerizing and emotional soundtrack
Calmed by the Dark Leviathan
The world is way bigger than it needs to be.
Content is locked behind arbitrary electricity walls that you generate over time.
The writing is janky and weird.
While driving around, the sprites stutter and jitter.
Someone spent a lot of time on this but it needs to go back into the ideas pile.

Rage Wars
Let me start by saying you would be hard pressed to find a game as good as rage wars out there on the market right now. The only thing that can even come close is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and even then it’s still a clear second place. This game has consumed my life and I know for a fact that it will consume yours if you give it a chance.
Pros:
Cheap- The 1 dollar price tag is nothing. That’s the cost of a hamburger from mcdonalds. Needless to say you CAN afford this game.
Visuals- The visuals offered by this game are nothing short of stunning. From the city to the park, and even the school. They’re sure to immerse you in the world of rage comics.

Blasphemous
Wandering what would it be if Dante’s Inferno (2010) became a metroidvania game? Now you have the answer, it’s Blasphemous! I’ll try to be as brief and honest as possible telling what I saw and experienced during my playthrough.
Before anything else my entire playthrough was during “V. 1.0.6” so, if there’s something missing the devs might have patched it. At this moment the game is on “V. 1.0.8” and according to the devs:
@Blasphemous:
“You’ll also notice that this is Patch 1, which means more patches and content updates will be on their way - launching Blasphemous doesn’t mean we’re finished! - Wed, 25/09/2019”
Knowing that let’s get to move on to the review…

If someone reads this - Sorry for my English.
I really wanted to like this game. But it seems to me that the logic of exploring the map is fundamentally broken.
How does metroidvanias work? At the location, you find obstacles that you can not overcome. –- You explore the location, find the ability. — Overcome obstacles and feel progress. The game designer organizes the game levels in such a way that you can collect the necessary abilities for game progression and explore old locations to find secrets. And in portions, you get more and more freedom to move.
