Весело, ностальгійно, драйвово. Але, Олексію, освітлення другого рівня відбило бажання грати.

Did I not have fun blasting demons in this gory action first-person shooter? I'd be lying if I said I DIDN'T have any fun - because I did beat it. But there are so many flaws with this game that I wouldn't advise 9/10 people to pick this up. Pros: Gunplay and gore (they're actually good). Cons: Everything else. To start off, if you LOVE Serious Sam, and you saw the gameplay and you thought it's like that, but just more indie.. This ain't it, chief. Because the game has 5 levels (each bigger than the last), and enemy variety pretty much doesn't matter. Yes there are a couple of enemy varieties, and I did play on Hard, but I could just categorize them into 2 types - ones that rush you and ones that stand there and throw projectiles. The smaller ones have less hit-points, the bigger ones have more hit-points. That's it! Another problem with this is that, the projectiles fired are so random you're never able to calculate where it hits, and there is some transparency applied to the projectiles that you're not even able to see them properly. The developer HAD to use transparency for the projectiles, because the only thing the game does to make it difficult, is to throw in more enemies. There are SO MANY demons spawning in all the time that it just feels exhausting to get through them. You probably kill as many demons on the second level in this game as the final level in Serious Sam, and it only gets worse. Level design is basically absent. It's just a big giant box with locked off doors - the dev MUST have taken somebody's help to design the levels - because they're just not good. Sometimes you need to kill every last enemy to unlock the invisible wall to open so you can progress, but in the large open arena you sometimes have one enemy stuck somewhere, and it doesn't even make noises, so you have to keep running around in circles to find it and kill it to open the invisible wall to proceed. It's objectively a bad game, and also not well balanced. On Normal it felt slightly as easy as DOOM 2016's Ultra Violence, but on Hard it's much harder than DOOM Eternal's Nightmare. In fact, to beat the final level, you must have uncovered all the secret Health and Armor levels and played near perfectly to beat it. I gave up and just beat the final level on Normal dificulty. The boss on Level 4 was so hard, that I knew I couldn't beat the final level, so I had to reduce difficulty. The game desperately needs another layer of difficulty. All in all, if you're even reading this review to determine whether it's good or bad, just don't. Yes you can have fun because the gunplay is still good, but ultimately, it's just a bad game. At this point, I'd say don't even bother picking it up on a deep sale. Because what you'll be losing is time. I beat it out of OCD and because I paid for it. (Sorry dev, you probably enjoyed playing your game, but it's unpolished and messy - and you could do better with some help).
