First 20 Minutes Gameplay Here

First things first: Don't squeeze the rat too much, or it'll die, which means you'll have to start again. I mean during the shaking.

As for the theme, yes, I understand that everyone’s trying to make funny comments, but this is not just a "Rat-Shaking" game. This is an experience that not many games offer.
Sure, you start with rat shaking—that’s true—but "every action has its consequences which cannot be undone". Here, those consequences carve their way into your soul and won’t leave until you finish the game.

Although it’s not very long, this game has some of the best transitions into its story that I’ve seen in a while.
A great game if you like acid-trip experiences at a good price.

Must Buy!

So, here we have a gave which I think should deserve more players. I mean yes, it's frustrating to move on to the next stage. But isn't that the whole point of these kind of games? =)

Basically you have here a tactical RPG where decision counts. - and also may be your last. I mean you can re-play the stage you lost. But until you something else in your sleeve you didn't use before, there's almost no way to be able to move on and you have start from the beginning.

You get like options like rest (for hp regeneration) or weapon upgrades/enhancements on each clearence on of any stage. You can see where the enemy hits when you hover over them and when they'll be hitting you. there will be enemies which you can outrun but what are you gonna do when the enemy hits the whole 3x3 pallet all at once? Well, you have to play find it out =)

Thumbs Up!

Well, first things first: The main goal on this game is not to kill your enemy as fast as possible but not to kill your last enemy until you get the needed amount of stars so you can get 3 of them.

I mean, the game is really short. Specially when you get the hang of it and complete each level on the first try but on the other hand. I think that this game has one of the best "game mechanics intro" I've seen since a long while. Even just the thought of "playing the tutorial on the arcade machine " is a wonderful idea!

The graphics are not bad, and you can see the different "screen "versions you can play with. For me personally the "grid-line" view wasn't that good so playd it on the "flat screen". (also on the video)

The art style is good enough to make you watcht it altough the one thing that bothered me most is it just felt like that there was more talking than shooting. I mean yes! the story is not bad with some slapstick funny moments as well. It's just that... it felt too long. especilly when you try to kill your enemies.
The levels are also short in my opinion. You spent more time on the last enemy not to hit him to get the stars (coins) than playing trough the level.

A great extra for this game would be to turn off nudity (not that everything is about nudity, but it has enough) so "everyone "could play it or share their video considering restrictions.

Anyway, still a game with (maybe) replayability and funny story line. Thumbs Up!

So, here we have a generic side-scroller. It’s almost too generic, to be honest.

I’m not saying it’s bad. I mean, I’ve played it, and I still pick it up from time to time. But I really wish there were more levels. I think there are about 4–5 levels, and the only thing that changes is the color of the robots (different colors mean tougher opponents). The level designs, however, remain the same.

On the one hand, it’s great because you can easily learn the layout of each level. On the other hand, it kills the joy after a while.

Considering the responsiveness and the not-too-bland playstyle, I’m going to give it a "maybe" thumbs up.

So, first things first: You’ll need 4 shots from your pistol to kill the first dinosaurs until you get some upgrades.
Also, take in account that the re-loading gun animation can get hindered if you run or anything comes in between. So, time your re-loading!

The Story: You are a "one-man army" on a mission to find the president's son, who just happened to wander onto the one island he definitely shouldn’t have been on in the first place, along with some tourists, and gets lost! (Duh!)

As for the game itself, I wouldn’t exactly call it "horror" in the traditional sense. Yes, there are some "gory" parts and some jump scares, but horror? Not quite. On the other hand, it’s a full-blown action arcade game that reminded me of the good old days. You get the gun and start blasting your way through.

The animations—or rather, some of the "stiff, joints-not-moving" animations—didn’t bother me at all. I've played enough indie games to not see these as issues, since they don’t hinder anything and even add a bit of "niche" style to the game. Considering the general scenery and visuals, which are awesome by the way, the graphics are quite well done!

As for the gameplay, I wouldn’t say "not responsive", but jumping was a bit of a pain in the a** for me. I accidentally jumped through the ladder hole a couple of times when trying to cross a railing! So, beware!

Also, when using the shotgun and you don’t want to waste ammo trying to shoot down coins scattered around and switch to your pistol... Just wait for the first animation to finish, aim, and then shoot— or you’ll waste ammo.

The game does get a bit repetitive after a while, but not in a bad way. There are still big dinosaurs to hunt, and you’ll need to get used to not always selling "everything" you find. Sometimes, it’s better to store items to combine them and do what you’re supposed to do with them.

Overall, it’s a great time-killer where you can log in, play for a few minutes, leave, and then pick up exactly where you left off (from the train, I mean) without having to remember much—just jump back in and play! I mean a game with more than 10hrs of gametime, which is also an Indie game, for this price? I wouldn't miss it!

So, to sum it up. A great game for a great price!

Thumbs up!

Well, it's been a while sine I actually like a FPS - Surviver - Bullet Hell Game!
The game is easy to understand and hard to progress =)
There are lots of guns which you all shoot at once. The main focus is however on choosing the right weapon for the specific monster you encounter. I first played with auto shooting but than turned auto off for my main weapon and only the secondary weapons were on auto. Which gave me some kind of "control" over my shots.

As said, the game is a survival bullet hell with upgrades.

So gear up and lets hunt some monsters!

Thumbs Up!

I know I usually only do "First 20 Minutes" playthroughs, but since this is a great, generic bullet hell game, I wanted to show something a bit different this time.

One of the reasons I made this video is to show how crucial the upgrades you get during gameplay are in bullet hell games. Don’t get me wrong—I'm not saying the game is bad; on the contrary, I really like it and have played it for a few minutes. (A few :d)

First off, the graphics are great, and you can set the censorship to "cats," which covers everything in the background with cats. You can also set the sounds to "cats," so you can enjoy meows all day long! =D The controls are responsive, and the gameplay is engaging, especially with the things you want to “see” after progressing in the game. (Which, of course, is the nudity.)

As for the title and why I said there's a twist on the master difficulty gameplay—if you watch the video, you’ll see that I didn’t complete the level by having a high hit rate. On the contrary, I won because the enemies couldn't hit me, thanks to the upgrades giving me full defense. I couldn't get the “300,000” point completion, but I completed the level without almost taking any hits! which still counts as completed :D

Anyway, great game! Thumbs up!

The game turned out even better than I expected. I can say that for sure! I thought the comic-style graphics might bother me, but they didn’t at all.

In the game, you play as a robot cleaning "Virals" from planets. Each stage has a set number of Virals to clear, which I believe will eventually be tied to achievements as well.
Considering the gameplay it reminded me of Kirby! (Yes, the one and only) and a bit of "The Gunk" (considering clearing out the pest of the plant (yes I know you can't compare the graphics but I'm solely talking about the story-gameplay)

The price seems a bit high at the moment, but I think it’ll drop to a more reasonable range soon.

All in all, it’s a great time spender with enjoyable gameplay and an interesting story. Thumbs up from me!

First of all, Yes! This game was made with unity... The graphics style resembles the game "Hand of Fate" - at least the fighting scenes - but nothing else is common. This is a fast-paced skill based, conan meets doom with metal music in the background kinda game! And it's hellova fun! Yes, it has its bugs and it's not that easy... You've got to get the hang of it... Still, go play now if you haven't already!
Sad it's not that long

First things first: After the first Big Boss fight, there is no save spot immediately available. You have to play a bit more to reach it, so be prepared. I’m not entirely sure if you restart after the boss battle if you die, but I know that you start just before the “running away” part if you do. Just a heads-up!

As for the game itself, I had really been waiting for something similar to the Ori series, and I can say that this is almost like a “sister game” to it. While the graphics and story are different, the main playstyle is very similar. And I mean this in a good way! You collect Aether, which means the more monsters you kill, the more Aether you get. Monsters respawn after a map change, and there are hidden, “behind the wall” areas where you can gather Aether or find extra upgrades. And yes! A controller is highly recommended!

Overall? It’s a great game if you enjoyed the Ori series!
