Bounty Brawl Most Wanted

Hey guys hows it going today i wanna talk to you about Bounty Brawl but first huge thank you to the devs at Infini Fun and Nanuq for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Bounty Brawl is a fast paced action rougelite that can be played between 1 to 4 players where you hunt down bosses and claim bounties which is honestly a good premise.

You get to choose between 8 bosses on 4 different areas you gotta make your way through the cannon fodder first before you can tackle the boss so far from what ive played the game could use more balancing primarily the mobs I feel have to much health right off the bat compared to the damage you do.

Theres some levels where you get attacked by stationary weapons and you cant even destroy them which i think is total bullshit considering your already dodging the attacks from other enemies.
Now this is a multiplayer game it has co op but sadly i wasnt able to find any active lobbies so I dont know if other people have bought the game or there’s issues finding lobbies.

The game has a good base and with some work can be very fun ive always wanted a game where you hunt down fugitives and claim there bounties and this could be it with some work ill definitely be coming back down the road after more updates and checking it out if your planning on grabbing it maybe buy a copy for a friend as well so you can have someone with you cause solo play sucked and definitely got my ass kicked plenty of times.

All in all thanks to the devs for letting me check out there game i cant wait to see what’s next for Bounty Brawl have a good one take care and game on.

Dark Light Survivors

Hello everyone hows it going today i wanted to talk to you about dark light survivors but first huge thank you to the team over at Mirari&Co for sending me a copy of the game to try out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Dark Light Survivors is a great game from what ive played so far its a rougelite with its own twist the game offers a good amount of upgrades to make your fight better but the best part is what makes this game unique you see more rougelites are all played top down view you go around blast monsters gain xp and level up with dark light you get both top down and 3rd person meaning you can switch between both views on the fly while your surviving now usually these games i always play them top down its how I enjoy the games but sadly with dark light survivors I noticed a lot of short comings with the top down so it was better for me to play in 3rd person. You see in other games you could shoot at a decent distance even before any upgrades with this one your shots would disappear at the 3 to 4 feet mark and thats before making any type of contact but in 3rd person mode it actually feels like your making better contact with them.

Another thing i saw was the map markers showing you where statues and chest are in top down view you get no indicators or anything but when you switch to 3rd person view you get a distance meter as well as actually being able to see them.

I know it sounds like im wailing on the game but im just showing some inconsistency it feels like the top down view was an after thought for the game instead of a fleshed out product.

Now like other rougelites when you level up your greeted by a deity from the dying world that grants you power this is also random but each deity gives you 3 choices for 1 element my favorite is always ice i like freezing monsters to give me some breathing room the electric powers were good but we’re heavy focused on melee and the fire was focused all around i feel there could be some work here as well to make it more in line with being even between ranged and melee attacks.

Now after each run in this dying world you return to your sanctuary to spend the coins you earn theres a store that unlocks relics for you to use and a store that also has new weapons and characters you can unlock as well after clearing there objectives to unlock.

So far there’s only 3 levels you can play through not sure when more will be added but the game has great potential and I enjoyed myself these types of games are great time killers as you never know how long a run will last but dark light survivors is out now on steam check them out and thank your for stopping by take care and game on

Grind Survivors

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about grind survivors but first huge thank you to Pushka Studios for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Grind Survivors is an action rougelite bullet hell game and does it live up to those tags the game starts you off on a forest level with difficulty 1 you start out the usual you kill enemies gain xp to level up and get more abilities each ability has a chance of evolving and becoming stronger which is a big benefit as your being surrounded, the game also offers alters where you get small stat boost that can make or break a run.

Ive made it to difficulty 3 on the forest I have yet to unlock a new map because honestly the game doesn’t tell you which is bogus cause for the characters and other difficulties it tells you how to unlock them not a fan of that to be honest.

I played on a ps5 and the game played beautifully no lag issues no stutters even when having hundreds of enemies on screen at once the game ran beautifully and you can tell the devs put in a lot of work.

Theres also a skill tree which let’s you increase certain stats with points you get from each run, as well as a forge to make your weapons stronger.

All in all the game does a great job keeping you entertained and making sure your able to survive as you progress i look forward to seeing what else the devs add to the game thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Cult of the Lamb nintendo switch version

So ive been playing cult of the lamb on the nintendo switch and I gotta say the game has been a total blast.

For those that havent played or heard of it your a lamb thats sacrificed to prevent a great evil from happening except that by sacrificing you your brought face to face with the great evil who gives you power so you can start a new cult and bring him back to life.

Now this game has a lot of aspects from the dungeon crawling to building up the cult you always have something to do in the game and honestly it never gets old, from rituals to feast to building beds for your followers the game let’s you be who you want either good or evil its your choice and your not punished for it.

Now the dungeon aspect of the game I could compare it to moonlighter you have 5 dungeons each one needing to be beaten a few times in order to unlock the next one and so on but you also find people that help you along the way as well as new followers to worship you as you progress keep in mind each door has to be beaten 4 times on the 4th run you reach the final boss destroy him and unlock the chains on the final door but of course people wanna see you fail and will do stuff in order for you to fail.

Keeping your followers happy is huge and can be done between dungeon runs you clean up after them cook them food perform rituals and so one and the fact is your followers are adorable little animals in your lamb kingdom.

Ive never had so much fun with a game ive spent plenty of time just chilling with my followers making things better for them so they in turn can help me with upgrades and progression.

Cult of the lamb offers you a lot to do so your never bored and it runs great on the nintendo switch other then some small lag spikes and some loading times feel a bit longer the switch plays it like a champ and is the perfect handheld for cult of the lamb, there’s also plenty of dlc available which I havent gotten to purchase any as ive wanted to beat the base game so if you want a fun adventure with lots to do check out cult of the lamb its available on all consoles and pc through steam thank you all take care and game on

Raiders of Blackveil

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about a fun rougelite thats ive been playing but first huge thank you to Wombo Games for sending me a key to check out there game so let’s dive in.

You may have heard of Raiders of Blackveil it released with a lot of issues but the devs have been hard at work knocking out issues and updating the game as it goes along and I was fortunate enough to get a key to check out there game after there most recent update so I cant talk about its history just its present but let me tell you im having a blast with the game.

So in Raiders you play from a select few characters trying to take down an evil corporation thats destroying everything around so each raid is where the fun starts you spawn on a sweet ship where its your home base there you have a variety of characters that help you on your missions from Muriel who helps you craft skills to Belmont who’s the merchant where you can buy and sell gear to my favorite the smugglar who will greet you every few levels and give you a chance on getting the best gear out of the game safely even if you die then there’s the big boss Atlas who helps upgrade the world maps so you can find better stuff for your runs and trust me the upgrades are worth it.

Right now there’s only 4 playable characters but from the character screen they plan for 12 which is gonna be awesome cause it adds so much variety to the game im guessing there’s multiplayer since your able to join or host your own games idk I havent been able to try it out being a solo player.

Then there’s 2 raid maps a meat factory and a harvest operation both maps have different enemies and offer there own unique experiences you also get a stash chest with 4 tabs for storing everything you get from raids and yes the chest is accessible across all characters so you dont have to worry about earning loot all over again for a new character run.

The games a rougelite its fun after each floor you pick how you progress there’s floors that grant you perks while others give you money or gear for clearing them you will also find floors with mini bosses and elite enemies you pass through over 20 stages before you go head to head with the boss and man did I get my ass kicked over and over until I finally was able to beat the boss for the meat factory at which point you get the choice to continue forward or extract back to the ship with your goodies.

This game has its own unique feeling between extraction and rougelite gameplay and its worth every bit of action you experience. I cant speak for the history of the game but for the present the game is awesome im having fun even with minimal lag spikes the game plays amazing and I cant wait to see what’s next between new maps and characters i wanna see what the devs at wombo have in store so dont be scared check out Raiders of blackveil and enjoy thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Cursed Blood

Hey everyone hows it going today we are gonna talk about Cursed Blood a brutal gore filled action rougelike but first huge thank you to David Marquardt Studios for sending me a code to check out this beauty so let’s dive in.

Cursed Blood is about a shrine that used to balance the world by way of blood sacrifices but the old people died out and the shrine lay waiting for its next sacrifice now the corruption of the world along with its greed has thrown the balance out of whack and this is where we the player come in as we must fight and restore the balance by the way of Blood and trust me Blood it will be.

So you get to play as 1 of 4 vengeful Samurai Apes fueled by the rage of the shrine best part you dont have to go alone you see Cursed Blood is also a co op game for up to 4 players so grab your group of friends and let the chaos flow.

Now the game is a top down view like other rougelikes but plays a bit more similar in action to something like path of exile giving off the rpg vibes so you do have the rougelike aspects you find shrine buffs and you get to pick one theres also curses in this game that hinder you at certain shrines so every choice counts.

My favorite part of the game is the gore the Blood covering your screen during combat as well as the slicing enemies in half or into pieces you can also sneak up on them and do take downs since the game does have stealth.

This game has huge potential and I for one cant wait for its release in April so keep an eye out for this gem cause if you like action hack and slash some awesome gore and wanna play a kick ass ape samurai this is the game for you thanks for stopping by take care and game on

Rouge Night

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about a sweet little indie game called Rouge Night but first huge thank you to Grey November Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated it now let’s dive in.

The first issue i had with the game was a bit game breaking I opened a cave door and everytime I went in the game crashed on me I reported it to the devs on there discord as another player had the same issue they told me to give them some time which I did the next date an update went live for the game fixing the door that really impressed me the devs were quick responsive and didnt brush me off they made me feel like my worth as a player was worth more then gold and it felt awesome another time i was experiencing lag and crashing talked to the devs again and after some back and forth they were able to recreate the issues and send out a fix this is how devs keep gamers by talking and showing up for them and I for one will definitely stay, now the reason I started with this is cause I wanna show gamers out there that devs do listen.

Those are literally the only issue’s ive had with the game which is an rougelike sandbox open world survival crafting and ima throw in rpg cause you do missions lol but yeah you start the game and talk to a spirit fox which guides you with your missions telling you where to go you make your way out of a forest to this castle city thats in ruins as the zombies destroy everything, now im not a huge fan of zombies I hate horror games but I gave this one a shot the graphic style didnt make anything over scary like in an actual horror game on the contrary the zombies looked adorable and made me wanna fight them all even more.

The game offers a good variety of weapons from a sword to daggers to a spear and great sword and everything else the game offers cant spoil it all. Most weapons are found on enemies or on the ground so make sure you fight alot cause you will need to.The map is big and there’s lots to explore and plenty of missions to do i think there were 8 pages of missions but im sure more will be added down the line.

You also get to build a house where survivors you find will gather yes there’s other living people in the game thankfully, I did realize that when you die you lose everything and restart over I havent had a chance to ask about that so ill update if I get to ask. there’s also some pretty intense bosses as well first one I found was a giant spider and boy do I hate spiders.

This game is fun its simple its not very demanding or taxing on your system and honestly it deserves more eyes on it I cant wait to see how the game turns out and what more they add to it thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Dwarves glory death and loot

First off huge thank you to Hamma Studios for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in shall we.

Today we talk about Dwarves glory death and loot an auto battler thats available on the nintendo switch and steam, I was fortunate enough to play on the nintendo switch and i love games like these cause they fit perfectly on the platform.

So the game is an auto battler meaning the game does all the fighting for you which im fine with considering your army is made up of 10 awesome dudes fighting for glory and loot.

The game has 3 difficulties to choose from loot being easy mode and focusing on loot then there’s glory which is normal where you start to focus on staying alive as well and then there’s death which is hard mode if you lose any people during combat thats it there gone. Thankfully for your initial run the game does teach you the ropes and everything is super easy to learn and grasp.

Since I was on the switch version to move around between different menus it was all wired to the right joy stick which made everything a breeze you had the store and inventory tabs then you had the recruitment tab for new fighters then the fighting tab which let you choose which fight you wanted to proceed with, at no point did i feel overwhelmed by the menu set up like some games tend to be.

The gear is easy to work with once you unlock the forge you upgrade and make gear better at a 3 to 1 ratio there in ore in the game but I haven’t figured out how to use it yet.

This game is a blast its simple and fun easy to pick up and hard to put down and considering it made it to 1.0 release this game has a bright future and its one I highly recommend and if you have a switch console definitely pick it up this game feels right at home in handheld mode ive had fun with the hours ive put into it and cant wait to see what’s next for the future of the game thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Super Alloy Crush Demo

Super alloy crush is what you get when old school megaman is a huge inspiration, I wanna thank the team at Alloy Mushroom for sending me a demo code to check out let’s talk about it.

So the demo is short in total it took me 51 minutes to beat both characters which isnt bad but I kinda expected a bit more but its a demo so I understand.

Super Alloy Crush is a rougelite brawler that takes huge inspiration from classic megaman side scrollers. You play as 1 of 2 characters Kelly or Muu to battle evil doers. Kelly is the range character using guns, grenades and other specials to dish out damage he wasnt so bad but I couldn’t mesh with him I died once in the demo using him but that was mostly do to my own carelessness. His gun play is solid but you will struggle with boss battles considering all the jumping you have to do. Muu is the close combat expert and my favorite of the 2 characters. She gives off the classic wolverine aggressive feel with her play style using what im guessing are plasma claws or electric not sure hard to tell she charges into combat driven by combos and damage and made the demo much easier then her counter part Kelly.

During the demo the levels felt amazing the combat felt solid the variety in enermies was great and the boss battles were intense as enemies spawned to help the boss.

The demo closed out with a bit of the bullet hell rougelite im used to and it was fun I had a blast and cant wait to experience more of this game when it releases.

So if your a fan of megaman rougelites brawlers and Co op games check out super alloy crush with its awesome crt filters for the classic vibes and its great level exploration this game has huge potential and I cant wait tonsee its release, thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Blightstone

Hello everyone today we get to talk about Blightstone a dark fantasy turned based action rougelike but first huge thank you to Unfinished Pixel for sending me a review copy its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

At first I thought this was a squad based bullet hell game thats was my mistake I didnt read the email properly my mistake but what I got was so much better and a lot more tactical where every move you make is life or death and choices mean everything.

So what is blightstone its an dark medieval fantasy turned based rougelite rpg thats straight from the email so we all know rpg’s have great story and this is no exception and the story starts at the tutorial. Yes thank lord there’s an actual legit tutorial that gives you a break down of the characters how to move what to watch and check every skill. Truly thank you Unfinished Pixel for this and the fact its right at the main menu under its own section meaning you can play it at anytime to brush up is even better in my opinion.

Players will lead a small party of great warriors on a journey that transcends time itself as you must take a living crystal thats bound to you by fate to the end of the world, every run every failure every mistake is another scar that dooms our world to end untimely, but wait every run also is met by a chance at victory which brings a chance at a new build new skills new gear all while the chaotic world around you is swallowed by darkness.

Here’s a small excerpt from the email.

In the world of the Blightstone you’ll find deep strategy, blended seamlessly with roguelike progression. Your mission? To protect the Earthglass Crystal, and deliver it to the Infernal Rift. Only by doing this will you be able to destroy the demon overlord Korghul, and shatter the Blightstone itself.

So that crystal thats follows you around is key to saving the world but can we save it and at what cost you see this is where the game transcends time as everytime you die well I cant spoil it you will have to play to find out.

The combat is great even for a turned based game and even better if the fact the environment works both for you and against you either by having a wall blocking your aim or a fire barrel near the enemy primed for a spell to set it off make sure you study your surroundings before you start the fight every detail is a small aid to victory.

Heros come to your aid along your journey you will find others to aid you in the fight against evil so dont worry your not alone the world will answer.

The map is probably my favorite part you get to choose the path you want theres multiple points of interest and combat and every so often you camp out at night in hopes of healing a bit before you continue.
All in all Unfinished Pixel has a great gem here and the polish is insane the game feels buttery smooth and the story even tho the main good guy pisses me off is interesting and will draw you in to continue playing so pick up blightstone for 15.99 its worth it for the replay ability alone thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.
