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.

Blue Flame

Blue Flame

Ever since my first Iron Pineapple video, I have been snatching up and playing almost every souls-like game that looks worth my time. Heard about Blue Flame. Googled Blue Flame, but nothing came up. Googled Blue Flame Twitter, found an Adult Entertainment twitter profile. Looked through it. Realized I wasn’t in incognito. Cleared my browser history and came to Steam properly.

Added this baby to my wishlist only to realize that it was releasing the next day. Release sale, 20% off, under 10 bucks. Dev diary says game’s about 3-4 hours with about 7 bosses and more content is coming. Can always refund it if bad… It’s Friday, let’s play games.

This game is a souls experience for sure. Main problem is that it was too easy. Fuck the maze tho, that was just not a great experience, im not buying a maze game. That being said tho, was not too bad took maybe 40 mins of running around. Only had problems with the Harypys, all the bosses pretty much was a first try. Game seems too short too. Overall not too bad, but the lack of players that own the game and the smallest community I have ever been in makes it a problem to even google anything about the game. Wait for sale tho becuse, the game is 4-5 hours and you must likely wont be playing it more then once or twice. I hope the devs add more stuff and maybe a Wiki for the important things like achivements and a small guide for getting stuck on directions despite it being a souls like. 1 thing they could add is more options in the settings menu and maybe a ng+

9th Dawn III

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.

Real player with 183.8 hrs in game

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.

Aqua Boy

Aqua Boy

A 2 hour long metroidvania that feels like a cross between metroid, aquaria, and MS Paint. For the given price it is worth it, especially on sale.

The good:

  • music

  • progression

  • metroidvania feel

  • controls

The bad:

  • No warp (hence lots of unnecessary backtracking)

  • Too easy

  • Choppy framerate (unity lag)

edit: To the creator of this game: Please try contacting the creator of Aggelos, he will probably be able to help you make the framerate smooth.

A mastery of game design! Swim deep into the depths of the ocean to learn more about the legendary underwater city of Pathandor, and the curse that made it succumb. Also notice the fantastic 2D animation of the enemies (particularly a terrifying giant octopus). If I had to describe Aquaboy in one word, I’d have to say “Humor, mermaids, banana guns, and monkeys” you can’t just describe a game this good in only one word!

You MUST play this game!

Enemy Remains

Enemy Remains

Yelp Rating: 4/5

Graphics: When starting off in the first level, you are greeted with a wonderful, yet gore-filled map with calm, yet unsettling tones. When making your way through the maps, you will be greeted with much more colors that really bring the eerie feeling of the game. As you adventure throughout the map, you will come across other gore scenes, such as animal intestines and mobs.

Gameplay: The concept behind the game is simple. Shooter game, figuring what the hell happened, defeating hostile mobs, along with bosses, which vary if difficulty as you progress. You come across crates filled with loot, traps, explosives, and much more! There are a variety of weapons to use, especially figuring out the best combo for bosses and mob gang-ups.

Enemy remains is your classic top down shooter with various power-ups and weapons found through the game to use at your disposal. It has various traps and enemies which can have extremely variations of attack. The bosses are challenging but not super difficult where it makes you want to quit the game. The mechanical machine you ride in could use some type of attack or two but man can it run stuff over! If you like making monsters suffer this is your game! I have yet to try the multiplayer aspect so this review will be edited.

Smith and Winston

In order to destroy most games, you have to play around with corruptions, or data mine them, or use glitches, or speedrun them. This game lets you destroy practically all of the game dev’s hard work in level design, go ahead! It’s part of the fun! You can rush through the game, or you can dig around and find all of its secrets. It rewards you for dying as little as possible but also doesn’t punish you heavily. You can come back infinitely but using a continue wipes your score. It brings back the fun of arcades in going for high scores.

So…first of all…grabbing this game at a -75% discount…seems okay to me, it’s about Rm 6 for me ( let me give you a references…it’s about the price of 2 packs of snacks….) I had noticed that…this game is made by some Indie developers, so I wanna try to be “that guy” that do what I can if I like their product

Pros:

  1. Twin stick shooter…fun? yeah, i think it’s fine

  2. Funny NPC (AI) giving comment from time to time

  3. Destrutible environments… but it caused lag for my potato…fun if you have better setup
