A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Space Mercenary Defense Force is a five-dollar Vampire Survivors clone published by EastAsiaSoft. The biggest difference is that this auto-shooter takes place in space, and you defend against aliens instead of ghouls. Beginning as a slow-moving spaceship with a pea shooter, the player gains access to new weaponry and upgrades as gold, which is obtained […]
This week, me and Gillman play some Eiyuden Chronicle on Xbox GamePass, talk Suikoden, and the state of the game industry.
Published by EastAsiaSoft, the company known for releasing bite-sized games at affordable prices that are loaded with easy big-point Achievements, has released Flightpath: Adventures in Venaris, a game that mostly goes against their norm. Although the price point is still low, this is a meater game, one that actually makes the player work to unlock […]
In case you couldn’t tell from the title, SokoFrog is a simple, cutesy Sokoban block pushing puzzle game. It only costs five dollars, doesn’t take long to unlock all 2,000 Achievement points, and offers some casually mild entertainment along the way. Playing as the frog, it is your job to push the key block onto […]
Released last year on PC, Outer Terror might be easily described as another Vampire Survivors clone but with more story and mission objectives tied to the narrative. This is a randomized auto-shooter based around survival, killing a ton of monsters, and leveling up along the way. Broken down into episodes, each stage can be tackled […]
Essentially a glorified Sokoban game, Knowledge Keeper offers plenty of single player puzzle solving for five bucks. Playing as a tiny robed wizard character thing that walks like he is in an early South Park episode, it is your jobs to flip switches, walk through teleporters, push boxes, avoid water/pits, change colors, and collect the […]
Ario is a 2.5D action-adventure that has some slight tower defense mechanics periodically. Unfortunately, the lack of polish makes this game unplayable in spots with some truly head scratching design choices. Playing as a boy searching for his mother as it gets raided by odd looking masked enemies, the plot doesn’t make sense. Normally, the […]
Publish by Ratalaika Games, Orion Haste is a small, indie developed run-and-gun action game clearly inspired by Contra. While it doesn’t offer anything you haven’t seen previously, this action game can act as comfort food for those who enjoy the genre. Playing as a soldier trying to stop aliens messing with the oxygen supply, it […]
A simple 3D platformer, Master Maker 3D Ultimate only costs five bucks, has a handful of easy, big point Achievements, but is horribly low quality. All stage assets are composed of plain blocks which provides an intentional low-poly visual design. Which is fine. It is going for the retro-style theme. However, the play control is […]
The Smash T.V./Xeno Crisis gameplay is a winning formula. High action. Short burst gameplay. Entertaining co-op. Big bosses. Swarms of enemies. Powerful weaponry. And just enough randomness to allow the player to build skill to get better. Xatrom Command follows the overall top-down gameplay of these fan favorites but forgets to include all the cool […]
