Nice day for Fishing

You know as a big fan of viva la dirt and there skits I always wanted a game based on there stuff and we finally have it its called nice day for fishing.

The game has you take over town fisherman bailen and become an adventurer and I gotta say its great, honeywood is in trouble after an ancient evil awakens and attacks all others, where are the adventures… missing buy why.

The game starts out simple do this get this quest as you progress the story you meet every character from honeywood along the way from Greg the garlic farmer to bodger the blacksmith and even others like the great baradun. So yes this game is being true to its core material and I for one am loving it.

Combat has to be the most unique part of the game as all enemies are fishes and your goal is to fish them out but man did the devs make this hard as fishes fight back so you gotta use spells for damage and stamina recovery as well as blocking and attacking at the right moments it takes a bit to get used to but the combat is fun and interesting to say.

The game really sticks to its material but man I feel sometimes the characters are a bit harsh to bailen im looking at you wizard boy lmao. But there’s also plenty of comedic feel as you progress in bailens journey to save the great town of honeywood and I for one and enjoying my journey.

No but seriously this game is worth playing its fun its cozy and relaxing and has great dialog and progression its definitely a 10/10 from me and a must play so if your looking for a new game please give this game a chance not only to support the devs and cast but to experience the love and passion this game was built on.

I wanna thank the devs at fusion play and team17 for sending me this game I’ve loved every minute of it and cant wait to progress more and save honeywood. Also I refused to give to much as to not spoil the game sorry. Thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Sick Samurai

STRIKE! TEAR THROUGH ENEMIES AND UNLEASH VIOLENT MAYHEM; SICK SAMURAI DEMO OUT NOW ON STEAM. Skillfully Balance Precision, Speed, and Reflexes To Clear Each Room. Montreal, Canada, 29, May 2025 | Solideo’s blindingly fast, top-down instant death action game demo, Sick Samurai is now available on Steam. Rack up kills as you dash-and-slash your way through the first half of Sick Samurai’s opening act. Experience the thrill of mastering one-hit-one-kill combat as you immerse yourself in lofi hip hop and retro anime aesthetics.   Master the Girameki Technique Inspired by the classic top-down instant death game genre, Solideo masterfully blends aesthetic retro anime-inspired art designs with a sick original soundtrack behind high-violence action mechanics. Set on a surreal island that fuses Edo-period Japan with gritty 20th-century urban America, begin your journey as an aspiring young fighter. Retrieve a mask and sword from Genyu, an infamous ex-samurai who oversees your combat training. Throw yourself through fast-paced enemy-filled territory as you master the Girameki Technique to become the greatest fighter on Furikyu Island. The Sick Samurai demo is fully localized into 11 languages: Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Russian, Japanese, and Spanish.

 

Precision, Speed, And Style   The Sick Samurai demo features four hand-crafted levels, each offering multiple paths and strategies, as well as various upgrades and item choices that players will make as they progress. Players can restart levels instantly upon death, and repetition is necessary for mastering the game’s combat, which largely revolves around a blazing-fast dash-and-slash mechanic. Use your sword combined with a secondary weapon: Kunai, Stun bombs, or smoke bombs to clear each room. Precision with weapon use is vital. If you miss your dash attack, you’ll need time to recover. Dodge, or swiftly wield your secondary weapon to defend yourself until you hear a beat – that’s how you’ll know you’re ready to strike again. As you clear the level, a point counter is present in the top right corner. Increase your points with the Combo Counter by performing consecutive kills in a short period of time; take too long between kills or miss an attack, and you’ll lose your combo. Style points are earned from the variety in which you land your kills. Multikill points can be combined with style points, which can be earned by killing multiple enemies with a single attack. Race against the clock to complete the Genyu cigarette challenge; finish the level by the time Genyu finishes smoking to receive an additional point for your overall score. The highest score you can achieve in a level is a 10, you’ll need that time bonus for a perfect score.  Precision, speed, reflexes, and planning will all be put to the test.



Eccentric Characters With Unique StylesSick Samurai also features fully voice-acted dialogue with branching choices that will shape the player’s relationships with the game’s diverse and eccentric cast of characters, including Jones, an “ex” gangster turned proprietor of a jazz bar, and Spike, Jones’ lazy pet Rottweiler. The game’s aesthetics transition and change as you progress through each Act. From the traditional Edo period, then to an urban American jazz and rap vibe, ending on a more elevated, monk-like, and religion-centered look. Each stylized Act has a main boss who also has their own distinct design and fighting style.   

Demo Features:

1 Act, 4 Levels  – Choose between multiple paths, strategies, upgrades, and item choices as you progress through Act 1. 8 Original Lofi tracks –  Including the vibes of hip hop, jazz, funk, soul, and more.Eccentric Cast Of Characters –  Fully voice-acted main characters introduced: Genyu, Jones, and Spike. Dash Through Decapitations  –  Beat the Cigarette timer by clearing the level before the timer runs out, and earn 1 point towards your final score. Chase The Deadliest Score – Increase your overall score by stacking Style and Multikill points, kill enemies consecutively to keep the Combo Counter running. Utilize Weapons Intentionally –  Wield secondary weapons: Kunai and Stun Bombs, kick objects at opponents, and unleash the Girameki technique. 

Jotunnslayer hordes of hel

Jotunnslayer hordes of hel is an action rougelite bullet hell game set in the viking era apart from picking a character and trying to survive not much changes to this game set it apart from others.

So your a viking trying to survive you don’t get to pick a difficulty you start on easy and progress from there if you manage to survive the rounds 15 minute timer then you encounter a boss and well the term survival really comes into play as not only are you fighting the boss but other mobs as well.

The game has a skill tree you invest coin for points so u can unlock more skills and make things easier for you one would hope but the game has a knack for being brutal. You do have classes the barbarian a sorceress and a hunter to start out and you must complete different missions and unlock conditions to get more but most of the stuff isn’t easy and adds to the difficulty meter.

This game focuses on over running you which makes sure you put each action to good use between your dash and skill you need everything to keep going, this game also has mini missions in each round you complete a task and earn more gold to later be used if u survive.

Jotunnslayer prides itself on difficulty added harder runs and challenges as you progress but for the normal action rougelite it looks beautifully graphics wise and really gives you the viking feeling as you play each round if you want a challenge and aren’t scared of dying a couple times the harder the game gets then Jotunnslayer is for you thank you guys for stopping by take care and game on.

Resetna


Resetna follows the tale of resetna a Droid awoken with no purpose yet, after the combat tutorial your thrown right into the game where you take control of resetna and are tasked with completing missions in a desolate world.

Where the first hints of problems come in the intro video and again when your talking to FRED it’s easy to see there’s a much bigger picture here.

The main mystery is a signal that’s taken down and infected others before you, but your new and advance and give hope at least that’s how it seems. The first level is your intro area introducing you to combat and new enemies as well as some lore of the world which it’s easy to see there’s plenty of it.

You get a map which helps as you explore and shows you the different areas many you cant get into until later progression, combat is the basic button mashing till you kill the enemy as well as perry and dodge.

Resetna definitely has a deep story shrouded in mystery and is one i can say if your a fan of action rougelites and platformers then this is the game for you i won’t spoil more i want you to play the game so thanks guys for stopping by and game on.

The Precinct

So lately I’ve been playing a fun little gem called the precinct, yes it’s a copy game it’s like reverse gta but fun you see you step into the shoes of rookie cop nick cordell and immediately your given hints of a big story just waiting to be uncovered and all I can say is hell yeah im here for it.

The game starts in a tutorial setting without it being a tutorial you learn the basics how to drive and move how to interact and delegate how to identify and shoot as well as at one point how to fly the helicopter but more on that later.

The game has so much going for it right off the bat that even after my five in a half hours and multiple missions I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface of this game so where to start.

Your partnered with veteran police officer Kelly who’s close to retirement he takes his job serious making sure you know hey your leading this charge im just watching you and that is awesome cause it gives the player the chance to do everything as well as make mistakes and not be overly punished for it I can tell you I’ve had people escape on me maybe half a dozen times cause it’s not easy the game could use some partner interactions to not always leave everything in your hands but yes the npc Kelly does do his parts in some stuff but I wish u could tell him to do more there are times im arresting 1 person and the other will take off and he just stands there like come on it sucks but that I feel could be added down the road in an update.

The game has lots of details from the local map to the rulebook best part you can bring up the rule book while arresting someone if you need to look up procedure and what to do next. The game won’t hold your hand but it makes sure you have what you need to succeed.

This game is a blast a cozy blast I love spending time playing and just getting the chance to do my part I know there’s more for me to experience and I cant wait to experience it if your on the fence about this game don’t be its worth every penny.

I wanna thank fallen tree games and kwalee for sending me a copy of this game to check out and sink my teeth into it will definitely be bringing you more down the road when I get further into the game cause trust me this is barely a scratch thank you all for stopping by and game on.




Supercar collection simulator

Supercar collection simulator is pretty much like other store Sims where you have a store and build it from the ground up except this time your store involves die cast cars to collect which let’s be honest any old school hot wheels fan will fit right at home here.

The game starts you off in the tutorial empty store place shelf here order cars here and boom open your store. I wish I could say it offered more variety but these types of games are for the dedicated willing to sink in hours until you get your dream store and for some that’s fine others maybe not so much.

So your tablet is your menu it’s where you pay bills order merch and survive basically but thankfully you have a bit more merch opened up at low levels unlike other games and that’s a plus cause it gives you the chance to have variety right from the start and not be stuck in the same endless loop of one item until you can manage to expand and purchase more.

There’s a lot in the game to unlock but as I said it takes time and now a days time is precious to some people is the game worth it absolutely it’s cozy and chill and these games are definitely needed more so if you have the time to grow your store and not rush then pick this game up and give it a try but if you can’t grind it out then give it a pass.

Supercar shop sim has a long road ahead and a journey to expand more let’s see what updates this game has in the future but for now im signing off thank you have fun take care and game on.

PotionShop simulator

Hey everyone how’s it going today we are gonna talk about a nice little indie called potionshop simulator.

So you just graduated wizard U and start your journey to become a potion apprentice you search far and wide but every shop turns you down because they want a minimum of 5 years experience that’s laughable where have I heard that before so after much searching you find a village looking for a potion master and this is where our journey starts.

So once you get control of your character after the intro your met by a small flying green dragon who happens to be your starter guide his name… is tim I love the fact he has a regular name and not some insane dragon name.

Your first stop ends up being the potion shop where the previous owner left you a bit of a mess but after much hard work your ready to start your craft.

So after taking you on a walk for some ingredients your one step closer to crafting your first potion in a some what openish world it seems there will be plenty to find and use in your craft. This is when the game walks you through potion making to an extent as you use your mouse to stir the cauldron after which tim tells you more about working with ingredients to help progress you, so fresh and dry ingredients have there own out comes which you will learn as you progress. After you make your first potion you get a tase of the business side of things by opening the shop on the top right is some info to keep an eye on the night and day cycle as well as your customer reputation and the cleanliness of the store all are very crucial to your success. The game has a book that keeps track of everything from customers and there likes to potions to make and there ingredients and amounts its a very useful tool so always use it when you need help. The computer seems to have a slow start at first only sending you 1 customer at a time but I’m sure that ramps up as you progress after some more messing around tim takes you on a tour of the village showing you where some important shops are that will help you progress in game with upgrades and purchases.

All in all potion shop simulator is fun from the time I’ve spent on it and it’s on of those games that’s easy to pick up and set down without worrying about losing things it’s a game i suggest picking up and giving it a shot you never know it might be your next game of the year but that’s all for today thank you for stopping by have a great day and game on.

Wizdom Academy

Hey everyone today I wanna talk to you about this sweet little builder sim called Wizdom Academy, if your a Harry potter fan and a fan of wizards and magic this game might be up your alley let’s dive in.

So to start off you pick your headmaster and school colors and symbol then from there your dropped into the map and what little tutorial is implemented starts guiding you through and I’ll be honest the tutorial could use a deeper guide then the little bit it talks about. After your on the map your first task is to set up the mana tree which is the foundation to your school I thought that was pretty cool having some magical nature help you, you get to build hallways and classrooms as well as dormitories and teachers lounge the only thing I didn’t like so far other then the tutorial is the little space your given to place things on the map but in this game you build up as well but the tutorial does nothing at all to show you and that’s a big let down as most of the time your trying to figure things out another is the income is based solely on the students you have so you constantly need to have a high amount of students in order to survive.

The demo i played was fun and had some interesting events at one point I was attacked by a horde of goblins then at another point I had to deal with a mana drought and keep my school going there is a research tree which unlocks new classes and stuff for your school to make it look nicer.

I know it was a demo but if the main release is anything close to the demo then the tutorial needs a good amount of work, that aside I still recommend the game it was fun and I think the first game where your making a magic school i look forward to playing the game on full release and I hope you guys give it a chance take care and game on
