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.

Super Circuit Breakers is a fun, Free-to-Play, Smash TV-style arcade twin-stick shooter that’s challenging but fair. It’s a much enhanced and polished version of venerable 2015 release Circuit Breakers, which was one of my favorite arcade twin-stick shooters, but definitely suffered from odd controls and baffling menu navigation. Thankfully, Super Circuit Breakers fixed that. :) Also, it’s great fun in online co-op via Steam Remote Play Together.

Embers of Mirrim
This is, hands down, the most fun I’ve ever had playing a platformer. The controls are crisp, the mechanics are unique and well thought-out, it’s visually attractive, and the music is great. The single biggest complaint I have about this game is that it’s too short. I finished it in about 5 hours. I would love to have seen the kinds of puzzles they could have put in a longer game.
The difficulty curve isn’t bad. It’s hard enough to be satisfying, but doesn’t get hard so fast that it’s frustrating. There is one puzzle that uses a mechanic that isn’t used anywhere else in the game, and it can be difficult to figure out what the game wants you to do, but other than that, the mechanics have good clarity and the puzzles are fairly intuitive.

I’ve been craving a linear platformer and this really scratched the itch. While I enjoy metroidvanias, I feel like I ’ve been inundated with them of late and I wanted something a little simpler and straightforward, like the NES platformers of yesteryear.
Embers of Mirrim is a very polished puzzle platformer with heavy emphasis on platforming and navigating between sections and light emphasis on puzzle elements. The splitting mechanic adds variety, and the game continues to introduce other small elements to keep the game fresh throughout.

GUNPIG: Firepower For Hire
Gunpig is a colorful and enjoyable little score attack twinstick shooter, starring an adorable cartoony pig character, that has only one thing on his mind: shoot aliens and rack up as much cash as possible!
The game is divided into several levels, where you have to find the main baddy and take it out, although there are some other objectives sometimes, like shooting barrels under a time limit. While flying through the levels, you might also find cleverly hidden secrets, and special cards that unlock character graphics and concept artworks in the main menu. You can change your weapon by collecting fruits from special dispensers - there are a total of 9 different fruits/weapons, each one also having an alternative fire mode, ranging from spreads to mines.

This is a very short and very easy top-down twin-stick shooter that seems to be inspired mostly by the 1988 arcade game Gauntlet. It’s only $5 but I don’t think most players will get that much enjoyment out of it (I got it for much cheaper in a bundle).
There appear to be several bugs: None of the Steam achievements unlocked for me even after finishing the game. The store page also lists Steam Leaderboards as a feature, but I couldn’t find any way to view them either in-game or in the community hub. The volume slider for the music (which sounds pretty good overall) resets to zero after each stage. And even though the game uses the left gamepad stick for movement, there is no analog speed control. Meaning that even gently tapping the stick in any direction gives you full acceleration, so I spent a lot of time careening across the stages when all I wanted was to make small adjustments.

I’ve played this game for 25 hours as of this review, but AAC is already one of my favorite games. It’s extremely addictive, and this game caused the first time I’ve ever had strain in my directional key fingers in my ~25 years of PC gaming. It was a subtle ache that felt so good because it reminded me how much fun I’d been having.
The art style is modern futuristic. The music is pumpin' and really gets you into the game. The sound effects are absolutely perfect. The characters are simultaneously cute and cool in every way, and each has their own unique style. I love them. The simultaneously cute and cool style of this game sets it apart from any other futuristic game I’ve ever played.
