BULLET PARTY
This is a seemingly straightforward schmup on the surface but it’s just as much a puzzle game. Levels fly at you thick & fast, and you sometimes have just seconds to destroy all the enemies onscreen. However the visuals, whilst retro, are clearly defined & even though you will perish (many times!) it never feels annoying as you get put back in again, forcing you to think quickly & remember what worked & what didn’t.
Kind of unique among the many twin stick shooters out there, and great value. Even the pulsing soundtrack is effective. Get it!

BULLET PARTY is obviously a bullet hell game. A very hellish bullet game at that.
CONS
1. Gets very hard very easily, but this is to be expected. Bullet hell game after all. (Still annoying.)
2. No level editor. I feel like a level editor would REALLY make this game, especially if you could upload your levels and others could play theeem……………………
1. Very fun experience, with lots of levels.
2. Very fun with friends.
FINAL VERDICT
BULLET PARTY is a very fun game as you can tell. The game can be annoying at times, but it’s worth the money.

Trigonarium
This is EXCELLENT. I bought it on sale, and would happily pay full price.
I loved Geometry Wars, Waves and countless other 2-stick shooters (also old enough to have loved Asteroids…), but this feels fresh. It’s perfectly polished, and the addition of constant mid-game changes to the arena shape gives you something new to run away from, learn, and sometimes use to your advantage.
No unfair deaths, no easy/lazy ways to grind through levels, no smart bombs, and in challenge mode just one life.

Trigonarium is a very solid twin-stick shooter that has never received the recognition and love it well deserves. If you find the Geometry Wars games to be too fast for you, but you enjoy the mechanics of Super Stardust HD, then this is the game you want to have a go at. Unlike many other titles in the same price bracket, this one appears to have been tested thoroughly: I don’t recall experiencing any bugs whatsoever.
This title is critically underrated and at only three euros it’s an absolute steal. I urge everyone to give it a whirl!

Audio track is decent.
Good menus, extensive controls and customization.
Responsive, capable developer.
The bad:
Hard to see some items, visual style is lacking and can make things unclear sometimes.

I’ve played the local multiplayer several times with friends and have had a great time playing. The variety of game types and settings provide a lot of options for replayability. I can’t wait to play the campaign once it is released, especially since it can be played coop. Cymatically Muffed is reminiscent of older classics while still providing new and exciting mechanics of it’s own. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Solar Purge
Been playing this game since before EA launch! i’ve sat down talked with the devs. Through conversation and feedback with not only myself, but also through the community on their discord. They have really taken strides to improve their game. Keep in mind this game is early access in the way its intended! It had a great baseline for a twin stick shooter. Has even more potential to become one of the best out there. Now that i given backstory let me tell you about the game. Lets talk about it.
This is a traditional twin stick shooter through and through! gun play feels great on mouse and keyboard. Also supports controller. both methods feel and look great. There is 1 game mode right now called holo chamber. its got 2 maps caldera and jungle.

A really fun game for local couch co-op multiplayer! I personally used Parsec to play the game with my friends online and we all had a good time! The game has come a long way over the last year or two and I hope that everyone can get the same enjoyment out of this game that I have with my friends!

Flight of the Athena
Lots of variety with bosses and enemies. Includes interesting time-based events mid-mission and enemies that come from all four directions, which gets pretty exciting pretty quickly. Well done, A To Play Ltd’s Flight of the Athena is pretty damn fun and very replayable!
While the portrait art may be lacking the rest of the in-game art are quite nice. Some odd design decisions on the tactical map but the actual battles and bosses are loads of fun. And multiplayer!

This game is excellent! It is a flashback to games like this that I played when I was younger but with great additions! You have two guns (one on a turret) which you control using the 2nd stock on the controller; this is great! Also there is an RPG and randomness factor which add to replayability. Got to buy it!

It’s fun, though the bots are well… still bots, but that’s to be expected, at least they aren’t bad, they just aren’t to terribly great either. (They’ll do stuff like get stuck in a room, or pilot your about-dead-ship into mines that could have very easily been avoided or destroyed… but they’re pretty good in general with the rest of their duties)
I’d really like to see more missions go into this game, but as to the ones that are up they are fun (though, they could do with a bit more variation… especially exploritory-wise, as traveling through space doesn’t seem to terribly interesting, but I’m not sure how you’d add more variety to that, besides maybe having a map where you have to carefully pilot around obstacles, or maybe pilot your way into a hanger/base of some sort).

I’ve had a blast playing this with my friends. I backed the kickstarter so I’m excited this is out. Currently there’s a good amount of released missions for a few hours of gameplay, but since it’s possible to highly customize your ship it’s still very fun replaying those same missions, usually with a different crowd. Since you can play the multiplayer locally and the game is very easy to get in to it works well as a party game.
In early access there are still a few bugs, but for the most part the game is bug free.

Solstice Chronicles: MIA
Hello gang,
I am a Fig backer, that was able to partake in testing various aspects of Solstice Chronicles: MIA. In no way, shape or form did I receive this game for free or get payed financially to write this review, and also I am not an employee of IRONWARD. I am a simply man with simply needs. A video game to use as an escape from the soul crushing reality I call life! So, now that’s out of the way, let’s begin!
Do you find yourself wanting to be a space marine that shoots foreign creatures in the face to save humanity? Then look no further! If you are fans of the movie ‘Aliens’ or games like ‘HELLDIVERS’, then this is the game for you.

So, i played Red Solstice before and i tried this one not specially hyped about the change in gameplay, but i was happily surprised by this game
The game is overall good for me, good graphics, fluid gameplay, the first missions of story mode used as a tutorial in disguise but still with enough difficulties to be called missions. made it run on high definition without fps drop or graphic anomaly
We have 4 classes, each with it’s own mecanics : Assault (good melee and shooter), Demolition (heavy use of skills), Hellfire (Tank and crowd control), and Terminator (Powerful but decrease suit integrity with each used skills)
