Devil Slayer - Raksasi
”A Polished and Challenging Top-Down Melee Roughlike in Dark Eastern Fantasy”
Devil Slayer - Raksasi is more than a common top-down roughlike that follow soul-like mainstream with bunch of waifu characters. The game is heavily inspired from well-known The Binding of Isaac and high-risk high-reward combat melee like Hotline Miami. Raksasi is developed by indie studio called GlassesCatGames (3-man team).
Chosen Heroes of The Prolonged War
The game sets in the event after the ancient times; the war between mankind created by god’s experiment and demons that used to control the earth. You play as dying Byleth, female warrior who was recovered and helped from battlefield by mysterious figures. They see your true potential to complete ultimate goal; slaying demons.

A weird melee-focused roguelite, Raksasi succeeds on a gameplay level despite rough edges. I’d definitely like it to do more (weapons have decidedly few moves and combat is a bit slow, with little in the way of expressive play), but the carefully limited hit zones on attacks (you and enemies must connect with the right parts of your weapon swings) and the focus on spacing and timing succeed in offering a solid, skillful play space (albeit a bit wonky feeling at first).
- Deep, skillful, mindful combat with unusual play and high level of enemy interaction and engagement.

Techno Tower Defense
This is more of a top down shooter than a tower defense game. It is interesting. If you’d like you can check out some gameplay showing off the start of the game:

Such a simple premise that becomes insanely complicated quickly. The last couple levels had me bashing my head into the keyboard, but I finally managed to complete them all. It’s a tiny game, but definitely worth it for the price to have such a unique, brain-bending experience.

Okay, so. At first, I immediately wanted to uninstall this game.
Then, I decided to try again and made it to level three.
(I don’t even know how I managed that because it’s obnoxiously harder then it looks)
Now, I’m going to uninstall it because what the fu~

Blacklist Brigade
Pretty fun little game. Honestly has more to it than I thought, with weapon and character upgrades, 6 different soldiers who each have thier own couple passive abilities to help the team. Has quite a few gun options(Though there are never enough guns!). Combat, while not to overly difficult, has just enough challenge to where you cant totally yolo everything, unless you just dont care about being downed over and over. Its quite forgiving, with the rather quick and unlimited revives. I also like the amount of UI options.

My friends and I are huge fans of coop tactical shooters. We got this game because we thought it might scratch that itch and we were not disappointed. Lots of tactical movement and teamwork. Tense firefights that are sometimes quite chaotic. Enough gear and class choices to ensure a team of four can specialize, and also a skill system. Easy to get into and play, and next thing you know you’ve spent a couple hours. In a nutshell: fun.
The game is currently in early access, so be aware it isnt in a completed state (though still very playable). Maps are limited for now, but being added to. The developer is active in the forums and extremely responsive to feedback, which is nice. This is a small title that deserves support.

Open Hexagon
this game SUCKSin fact its so bad, i ended up playing it for hours0/69 bad game, too addicting :c edit: actual review though, this game is great, the simple fact vee decided to pick himself/herself/themselves back up is kinda motivating in a way, not so much for me, but it really does show that death iisnt always perm!chapter 1: gameplayfeels good! certainly plays well, however the gameplay on this game in terms of levels is… impossible, because levels are user created and more are always coming, but in terms of vee’s own creations, they are pretty bad… in terms of showing complex ideas, HOWEVER vee’s level’s are amazing in another way, showing… how the game works no shit, its great though, the first 5 levels are simply just getting harder, more patterns more rotation speed, all that, but then the game’s first pack will start showing what the fuck is possible, from octagons.. TO CIRCLES, to spirals! the second pack is a little rough, lucky thanks to the discord im aware its getting balance changes, but for now its kinda rough, its mostly just going through differgent ideas, nothing muchchapter 2: stylei love the style of this game, im always a huge fan of ridiculously simple styles, and this pretty much hits that exactly, the hexagon in the centre, the arrow, the walls, and the background, thats all you need for the open hexagon style, not to mention the ability to spawn custom walls or use accel walls to create covers that further enhance the already exist style of the game, of course thats not for everyone, its a preference for me to love simple shapes on the screen, its fun either way, not to mention the 3D layers in each style, and the ability to pretty much use those 3d layers to their LIMITS, like making the 3d effect visible, but the actual layer invisible, and making that layer move up and down, the posibilities are ENDLESSchapter 3: user created levelsoh did i mention that this game allows you to make YOUR OWN LEVLE? yeah i kinda do that, at the time of writing this my next pack is pretty big, all by myself, it takes a bit of coding knowledge though, but once you have the basics its super fun to just change shit, and replay your own level, however this isnt about my levels, the community of this game has made plenty of packs, back in version 2.0… no one used 2.0 and stuck with 1.92, and there were.. well a lot of packs by people, so many amazing ideas by such amazing people, most of the really well known ideas originated from the packs of exschwasion, who created levels like distraction, the fisrt level- or atleast first really well known level to contain walls covering your view, the existence of FRACTALS was made in 1.92, and brought to 2.0 thanks to.. well my own garbage can coming soon, sadly this was also the time vee dropped the game, but they came back, and glad they did!chapter 4: problemsthis game may be good, but it aint without its flaws, the obvious lack of a menu is one of those, but thats bound to be fixed later on, theres also the whole problem of having lost 1.92, which as i said was used most often for a while, and thus we lost so many good packs, like somename by alpha, or sensationality by metrono ivernan, and 2.0 packs from the non steam version also have some problems, tho are easier to port, the big problem here is that we had like 200 packs… and now we have 20, quite a difference, at a sudden point in time, however packs are still being made, who knows what the fuck could happen! the fact that custom walls are so changable can give way too… honestly too many ideas! chapter 5: welcome back vee!no seriously, welcome back! how’s it been? hope ya’v been doin well :DDDthanks if you read this, i doubt you will, just wanted to give a more realistic take o n the game, hope yall have a great day

A deceptively small price for a game so great.
There are only but a few games that I wish I knew how many hours I actually spent playing them.
This is one of those games XD
A gem that has been just out of the public’s eye has miraculously found it’s way to steam!
And this is no mere port mind you.
Vittorio Romeo has pleasantly surprised fans of the game like myself with not just the inclusion of long-been Beta content to the base game but optimized it beyond even the original’s performance.

Arkane Rush Multiverse Mayhem
Quite difficult - but here is what I don’t like:
-
Exit button doesn’t quit the game (it starts new run)
-
NO BORDERS on the game windows - meaning if you have multi screen setup you can go out of bounds and click outside by mistake X_X
-
only 30HP which forces you to retry until you memorize the attack patterns
-
The endgame (after the 90 seconds) is based n luck since there is a fire rain.
-
The store button is not intuitive - I got frustrated until I understood I could buy stuff.
Not worth the time or asking price
