Game is still very raw and incomplete.. After 2hrs, there is not much new to do. It becomes mundane and just clicks before time expires kind of a game.. very little strategy to play. Once you hire all 6 employees most of the commissions are very easy to complete. And once a few own projects are successful, you have enough money to just sit and enjoy..

In the present stage I wouldn’t recommend the game but there is potential.

I really wanted to love this game, everything about it could’ve been done or handled way better than what it is now, and I wanted to give it a positive review, given that it’s in an early access, and made by a single developer, though I couldn’t.

The Game

DevLife is a game where you somehow end up in a locked time loop, you’ll be pausing the game a lot just so you don’t accidentally miss the “unfair” deadline.

You’re given commissions to complete based on your level, and unlocked components, eventually you’ll be able to do your own commercial projects that will profit you if you’re lucky with the RNG.

Startup Panic

Startup Panic

living the Dream

Manage your time as a bedroom programmer. Pick projects, contract-work and vacation days to get by, then start to build some passive income through your startup.

Beware though: Once you start hiring your first employees and upgrading your office, you’ll attract the attention of competing businesses…

don’t Panic!

  • You decide how each project goes and what to focus on

  • Spend a week training your staff, or earning money, or building features… but choose wisely!

  • Upgrade your company in the skill tree: Will you take longer vacations or cheaper air-co?

  • Hunt for new employees and hire the ones that fit your style: Social butterfly? Marketing expert? Lone Wolf?

  • Compete with rival CEOs for new users in your region, and then expand out by building new headquarters on a world map!

  • Hurting for cash? You can take out a loan or search for investors, but don’t think it’ll come for free…

The Caregiver | 終焉介護

As a fan of Chillas games, this is possibly the first negative review I’ve given of his/hers games.

Pros:

  • Bigger maps than usual (or so it feels).

  • Superb atmosphere as usual.

  • Sprint ability!

  • Collectibles.

  • Good story.

  • Good sound design.

Cons:

  • Objectives are a bit unclear. Like, after cleaning up urine one would assume next step is to put the cloth used in the washing machine, but I guess in Asian countries you just throw things in a plastic bag and keep it around your house…?

  • AI enemy very fast finding and attacking you when needing to perform actions. You need to run around and close doors behind you all over the house for at least half of the clocks in order to try and make it in time before being killed.

Curator page here-- [url] DaRevieweD #81 [/url] -- [i]New review every Sunday[/i]

The Caregiver (TCG) is the most recent j-horror experience to come out from Chilla’s Art (CA)- who doesn’t even need an introduction at this point! It’s no secret, I’m a huge fan of theirs; I actually want to review all of their games but it’s easier said than done because you must have nerves of steel and not prone to mini-heart attacks. If you love Japanese horror movies, and want to be a glorified “extra” then play any one!! My first ever was when I worked in The Convenience Store (TCS) , but that’s because I was shopping for more than I bargained for.

Consider this game a bit of strategy, a bit of puzzle and simulation all rolled into an indie game with hours and hours of enjoyment to be had.

Whether trying to train your staff, research new game types or developing that perfect 10 star game, you are never stuck for something to do. Having Achievements through steam adds a nice little bonus to this game including the comical tone of them. While small in size and somewhat simple in its appearance, you can easily become immersed and lose yourself in this game for many hours at a time.

Even though this game has the potential to become quite fun to play its is way to buggy.

If your car gets stuck there is no way to get it to not be stuck. Items disappear after loading your game save.

Shops will be empty sometimes. On the computer when you have a company and are trying to make a project the GUI is messed up, You can’t manage your employees. Controls are very clunky and weird.

Very buggy game do not buy.

Pathological Tires

Pathological Tires

I was able to try this game during Early Access and it is extremely well-made. It remains one of the only examples of a “Racing Puzzle Game” I’ve heard of, and it’s not just a good concept – the level design is stellar, with new challenges and mechanics expanding the design space from area to area, and the game really sticks the landing. If you’re a fan of either puzzle games or racing fandom, this game is for you!

This time, the Salesman is Traveling in style!

Pathological Tires is a great example of simple-yet-challenging. The core gameplay of telling a car what path to take is understood immediately, with clever level design naturally revealing the game’s complexity as you play. Once you start having to think carefully about acceleration and cornering, it gets really interesting.

The game retains some nice racing quirks, too. Setting a new “Personal Best!” time on a puzzle feels really good, even if you’re not quite to the par time yet, and watching your new solution’s car race your previous Best’s ghost is exciting.

Lots of potential, but for now, seems quite repetitive. Also, the way it works with the Hunger bar is so annoying, especially because the shop is a few miles away. Even by car it takes a while but, guess what? Some guy that you own money to takes your car, so it’s even more frustrating.
