Defenders of the Last Colony
Back to the old days!!
Thats the best part of this game wich will get u back to the 90’s arcade machines but with that graphic upgrade that has been growing during the last decade.
Its gameplay is very elaborated. its plenty of action but you must have a good strategy to pass every level cause ur core will be under attack very often.
It has a local multiplayer mode wich is just madness, very fun to play with another person, and also very fun to play it alone.
The effects are very cool, great work there.

My overall feeling after playing is good.
At first I didn’t get the game mechanics of the campaign, then I realize that is all about charging the colony with the blue things that pop around. Managing to defend the colony while I was gathering the energy was tricky, but the mix of strategy and fast shooter was satisfying. After playing with several ships I prefer the Striker (love the boost, and it’s the only ship with that ability). Local coop was more fun than playing the campaign alone.
Graphics are amazing and music is great too. I didn’t mind that I couldn’t change the controls, after all is a twin stick shooter, it plays as you can expect from a twin stick shooter. I didn’t have any troubles playing with my 360 or xbox one wireless controller (it also works with Steam controller). It seems that devs addressed the crash and skip intro problems, which is always nice. It can have some fps drops if there are too many units on screen, but usually you take care of the enemies before that happens.

9th Dawn III
9th Dawn III is a great hack-and-slash dungeon crawler/RPG with a lot of content. The game has a semi-open world concept with limited access to areas related to the main story. There is a predefined path to progress in the game, but the number of optional dungeons gives a lot of freedom. I enjoyed the storyline, even if it is a clichéd “save the world from evil” scenario.
You can definitely tell that the developers put a lot of attention to detail in this game. There is a huge amount of items, skills, monsters and general things you can do in the game. You can go fishing and make a meal out of your catch, or you can go mining and forge a new weapon etc.

9th Dawn III is a 2D pixel take on a huge open world filled with smithing, jewelcrafting, alchemy, cooking, taming monsters, a card game along with the usual dungeon crawling and loot that are familiar for everyone. The animation and art for this game are it’s weakest points, which as an artist I hate saying. On the plus side, everything else is so damned good that you will get past the look of it pretty damned quickly. It is singularly my only “complaint” about this game, and even there the dark dreary textures that seem to blend into each other are vastly outweighed by amazingly implemented gameplay mechanics, a fun little story that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and a plethora of crafting minigames and card minigames that will keep you entertained for hours.

Last Ops
Reload your gun, turn on the flashlight and explore the darkest corners of an abandoned research station. Last Ops is a dark twin stick shooter with survival horror elements, framed in stylized low poly graphics. Upgrade your character, get new weapons, use different vehicles and uncover the mystery.
As the only survivor of the special rescue team, you have to explore an abandoned military research station. Visit various dark locations, meet other characters involved in the intrigue, find clues that will help you solve vaious puzzles and most importantly - survive.
Many of your choices will have the impact on later events. It is only up to you which path you will choose and how the game will end. If you don’t feel strong enough to face a powerful boss, you can try to avoid him or just run away. However, it is possible that you will meet him again in more or less desirable conditions.
After every fight sit down for a moment, refill ammunition and be ready (rummage in the backpack does not pause the game and your pouches have a limited capacity for ‘ready to use’ items). You never know when your enemies will attack. There is nothing worse than an empty magazine and a freak of nature pressing you to the ground with its teeth, right?
Upgrade your character by increasing his damage endurance and backpack capacity. As you progress through the game, you will be able to craft advanced items and build new weapons that will make your journey easier.
You will find many different vehicles on your way. Some of them will be ready to go. To activate others you will have to move your head. Thanks to them you will be able to reach previously unattainable places or turn to dust anyone who stands in your way. Believe me, it won’t be a walk in the park.

I got a key from the developer so thank you for letting me try your game.
I wanted to try this game because I enjoy top-down horror games like this, sometimes when I was playing I couldn’t pick up items for some reason took me a while to figure out how to get into my inventory but that’s just me i’m thick.
I went to the hospital but couldn’t find any trace of the person I was looking for but again maybe I wasn’t looking in the right place.
Overall I really liked it and gave me retro vibes of playing back in the 80’s and 90’s I made a video with no commentary just having a look at the gameplay.

Simple Farm
Very fun!

You get what you pay for BUT its not a bad start to a game. All the mechanics work as intended which is rare for a game so early in development. If the developer continues to update I believe more people will find this game.

Tunguska: The Visitation
This game is very hard, but in a strategic way. It requires no aiming skill or reflex, and you have plenty of time thinking about what to do to solve each combat scenario. Sometimes it’s more straight forward, and other times you have to die a few times to figure out the right way. It’s all about attention to details - some enemies wear armors, for example, and you can tell it from their appearance. But if you ignore that intel and just start shooting without the right kind of ammo, you’ll just be waiting ammo. There is a lot of details in the dialogues and journals, and you must pay pretty close attention to not miss important information.

6 hours in, and I really like this game. I first heard about it a couple of years ago on a Stalker forum, and my first impression from the previews was good. Now that I’ve had a chance to play the game, that first impression has been reinforced. Tunguska’s setting is moody and atmospheric. The gunplay and stealth are straightforward but challenging, and the overall result is a fun top-down twin-stick “shooter.” Quotes because there’s more to this than running and gunning – there are some light RPG elements, and a heavy element of exploration.

Star Singularity
So after playing this game for some /h
Short answer i strongly recommend this game buy it and have fun
The long one :)
It´s a mix of different core mechanics i like in a game Mining/Crafting/Exploration and so on
And as you progress in the game the difficulty will increase
Tutorial
While it still needs some tweaks here and there it’s good
The short “story” start it gives you a hint of what the story might be so i’m looking forward to see what the universe “Dev´s” brings
Crafting system
Who dont like to craft items?
– Real player with 77.1 hrs in game
A solid space RPG game which is focused on the action. While currently in early access, I am having fun while playing it.
The main gameplay has you flying a ship through star systems, destroying enemies, and picking up equipment/money and upgrading your mothership and fleet. You have up to 4 ships out at the same time, with the ones not being controlled handled by the AI. It has a nice exploration style as you fly around and discover new items to be used.
As mentioned this review is done while the game is in early access, but there is a lot of potential out there. The developer is pretty active in the forums which is a very welcomed aspect for these kind of games.

Blacksea Odyssey
War of attrition: the game
On a serious note: it’s, as you saw from videos and screenshots, game with shump elements (it’s closer to western type of shmups, than to a super-mega-ultra-hardcore Japanese shmup) and rogue-like elements (random encounters and loot). So how does it work in practise? Gameplay cycle is as follows:
-
kill trash monsters in their camps;
-
slay relatively big boss monster;
-
buy/sell loot;
-
repeat this until the last battle against … little bunny with a carrot-sword (not really).

The game Blacksea Odyssey follows the paths of four interstellar bounty hunters who “fish” in deep sea for giant monsters. Honestly, the story may as well not be there, as it’s only told during cartrige-era text boxes, but for the amusing conversations that take place between the four hunters between missions, which if you take the time to read are actually quite amusing.
As far as gameplay goes, you control your spaceship with WASD and fire with the mouse. There is gamepad support but I would recommend not using it. I’ve tried both, and even after taking a half hour getting used to it with the gamepad it still wasn’t worth it. The controls simply don’t work.

ZCREW(Z字特遣队)
I think this is still kind of pre-release, so the final product may be much different… and I really hope it does end up so. It’s very unpolished and the movement/physics are wonky as hell. Does not stack up to Helldivers or other games like that. The knock-down mechanic seems like utter BS and is basically an automatic death sentence.
The game is 50% off right now and, I suppose, I spent more time playing it (~2 hours) than I would have gotten for $5 for most other sources of entertainment, but if you’re looking for anything beyond a “$5 game” then I would look elsewhere unless this really gets polished up before official release.

I don’t know what, but something wrong with this shooter.
You have weapons, you have enemies, but no action, no interesting situations, interesting enemies.
I did run it few times, but maximum - 2 fights and game boring me(
After developer response I tried it once more.
All in all - the same. And found some bugs, like broken mission, character spawned in object after death.
After the mission 10 - not enought ammo on missions. For all classes.
Purple and blue loot dissappered very fast. In a battle no a time for looting, and some major loot dissappeared and it’s sad.

Endgame: Road To Salvation
Two player local coop split screen gaming at its finest. Very scary atmosphere, while you are playing you have this feeling of constant urgency. Its much different than other survival horror games out there. It’s always getting updates, and the developer is very responsive. Which is very much appreciated by people like me who have massive graveyards of unfinished games. There is a lot to do in this game once you figure out how to set it up and what to do. There are different options in the menu to customize the game how you like it, which is a huge bonus if you decide to play it two player. Next time you plan a scary movie night with your girlfriend, grab two controllers and this game instead. It will definitely beat an overpriced amazon rental any day! Highly recommended.
