So… this is a free game, and it starts out feeling ok. The basic gameplay isn’t a problem. The issues begin after playing for 15+ minutes and you realize that you’d like your player to die in case there is an upgrade to add variety to the overall gameplay. Well, the upgrades are ridiculously expensive and that means grinding for at least an hour or two before going for the cheapest of them… The overall experience is negative due to the lack of variety. I can’t suggest to anyone spending more than 15 minutes playing it.

Summary:

(longer version below)

Fun and relatively unique, however it falls short in some aspects where they try to pad out more content by just making it tediously long and hard because of enemy spam. It is very short, still has a few bugs but if you can get it really cheap, and if you’re a fan of platformers, it’s worth the 2 or so hours of gameplay.

If you’re a sucker for cheerful, fun games and cute animals in games, this one is for you. :-) I thought the main character is just adorable, and there’s even a full on story in addition to the fun platforming mechanics. Take a break from your busy day and consider Musasabi, or get it for someone you love.

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!

Random Heroes: Gold Edition

Random Heroes: Gold Edition

Very Good Game for People who love Pixel Games (myself) !! I have not the best English !!

But there are downsides as well (Its not out for long and will probably be fixed)

1. Achievments do not work at least for now

2. I dunno if its a bug but i had all Characters right at the start

But despite some Bugs its a good Game and not too expensive so

i would recommend it

EDIT: This game is more fun than I originally thought it would be based on the first impression. And THEY FIXED THE BUGGED ACHIEVEMENTS! I’ll lever my first review for people to see my first impression, but just know that it’s better than I thought it would be after that first hour. Getting new guns is fun, and they really change up how you play. That made all the difference from it being a good time waster to being a legit just good game.

It’s a good, if somewhat basic game. Nice throw back title that I don’t think would be fun to play for hours on end, but to fire it up and spend a little time with it here and there, it’s perfect for that.

RIVE: Wreck, Hack, Die, Retry!

RIVE: Wreck, Hack, Die, Retry!

tl;dr: Great audio, great visuals, great controls, great variety, ok writing, solid voice acting, solid price, bit unfair at times, will kick your butt heartily but it feels mighty rewarding to succeed.

So, after spending most of my day playing this game, I feel I ought to give it a review:

I felt that six hours was a bit high of an estimate from the developers. I’m reasonably good at games, but I’m pretty weak at sidescrolling shooters; even still, I managed to complete the game in about four (and then beat the game again in just over two hours). Before I go much further, I would like to say this: RIVE is excellent - its presentation and gameplay are highly well-thought-out and extremely polished - but it’s a game that begs to be replayed. Its greatest flaws are, for the most part, ones that wash away within a single playthrough, but if you’re not so into the level of challenge RIVE puts out (or how quickly it ramps up), then those issues may really hurt the experience for you.

Dutch developer Two Tribes was one of the early Humble era developers to support Linux, and after having a good time with Toki Tori, RUSH, Edge, and Toki Tori 2, I found myself eagerly looking forward to RIVE.

I’d previously helped pull together some love from the Linux community and lent a hand with testing a few things for Two Tribes, and over the years, I’d formed at least a passing friendship with a few people there. I’d been aware of the company’s financial struggles and the ups and downs of the company’s downsizing/reboot after filing for bankruptcy in 2013.

Rogue Stormers

Rogue Stormers

IMPORTANT: This game requires a resonably good and consistent connection to play online coop. It caused a friend of mine serious desyncronization issues, such as not being able to see the lightning hazards.

Early access builds of Rogue Stormers were not very good, and notably did not have a cast of varying characters. This release build? Much improved, though at some level I lament the loss of weapon-customization, which was never actually implemented to my knowledge. I first became aware of the game during its initial kickstarter campaign, when it was still called DieselStormers. I purchased it from the humble store and didn’t have a chance to finally play it until about a year ago, when it was still in a very rough and bland state.

This is, in a nutshell, a great little timekiller.

Basically you have a number of playable characters with which you go through a series of levels. You kill hordes of goblins and orcs. At the end of each level is a boss waiting for you. Every character has its own gimmick. They have varying stats as well as different weapons. They each have an ability with a specific cooldown period. One shoots a large barrage of little rockets, another gets a short period of immensely boosted firerate, to name two examples. To complement your play style, you find some secondary weapons, which get damaged and eventually broken as you sustain damage.

Tecroroid Assault

Tecroroid Assault

Tecroroid Assault is a space invaders clone. You can earn money while playing to buy upgrades for your weapons and ship and there are bonus challenge levels and boss monsters. It’s not too bad so check out my game play video to see what it’s like then head to the following link where it is available on Steam if you’d like to give it a shot yourself…

Once you get used to the controls (I highly recommend using a gaming controller) it’s super fun! So far my fave mode is adventure mode, I can’t wait to play more of all of the game modes! Will stream more game play for sure!

An old-school space shoot-em-up with awesome graphics, upgrades, rescues and lots of weird aliens to kill! Great fun and works well with my Logitech F310 gamepads.

A sincere thanks to the dev for supporting Linux with this game as well. For those who have it installed, I recommend using the ‘gamemoderun %command%’ launch option for maximum enjoyment!

9/10.

Void Source

Void Source

A 30-40 minute game which tries to do many things, but doesn’t do much right. There is no fun to be found.

it sells itself as an EA game, but there were no updates for the past 9 months. It is what it is - a crude all-around unfinished game with random unpolished content.

Real player with 3.6 hrs in game

This game is very easy. I got all achievements in less than two hours.

As a shooting game, it has good graphics and exciting musics.

Player can select a lot of weapon types and many game modes. It also includes an interesting level editor.

If you don’t mind about the very slowly move and battle speed, it will be a good game for everyone.
