Cecconoid is an 8-bit inspired, flick-screen, twin-stick-shooter, set in an alternate dimension where the pixels are still chunky, and the bad guys are black and white. Except for their red dangly bits...

[h1]«Cecconoid»[/h1] [b][i]Хардкорный twin-stick shooter в 8-битном стиле 80-х. Уничтожаем нашествие вражеских роботов.[/i][/b] Геймплей: https://youtu.be/mfR-s-PjidI [code]«Cecconoid» вызывает ностальгию. Игра сильно напоминает старые аркады не только графикой, но и геймплеем, механикой и атмосферой.[/code] Сложность высокая, но управление отзывчивое и послушное. Можно играть на клавиатуре или геймпаде. WSAD передвижение, а стрелками выбираем направление стрельбы. На геймпаде под движение и стрельбу используют оба стика. Мишень наводить не надо. Мы просто выпускаем очередь пуль в выбранную сторону. Патроны бесконечные, апгрейд для оружия выбиваем из овальных контейнеров. Энергии нет, есть ограниченное число жизней. Любое попадание/прикосновение к врагу мгновенно убивает, но пока есть жизни, продолжаем прохождение с текущего места. При этом оружие выпадает. Если не успели подобрать, то оно исчезает. Если все жизни израсходованы, то игру начинаем с самого начала. Врагов много, только успевай уворачиваться и стрелять. Жизни улетают мгновенно, и проходи все снова с самого начала. Это утомляет. Чтобы разнообразить геймплей добавили режим с ареной. В нем на одном экране надо продержаться против волн врагов. Этот режим еще сложнее, но любители динамики и вызовов оценят по достоинству такой хардкор. Если вам понравился обзор, информация была полезной/интересной, то поддержите лайком или комментарием.

[b]Introduction[/b] Cecconoid is an eight directional twin stick shooter. It comes with a story mode inspired by Cybernoid and a separate survival mode named Eugatron inspired by Robotron and Llamatron. I don't think I've played any of those games but I have played similar games on the C64 and I enjoy twin stick shooters. [b]Cecconoid[/b] Looks like a greyscale+red reimagination of Cybernoid with smooth gameplay, nice multiplier system, plenty of rooms, a few secrets and multiple upgrades. It's pretty tough. You start slow with a wimpy shooter but with every upgrade you improve. However when you lose a life you drop your upgrades. If you then don't pick them up quick enough they disappear and you're stuck with a vanilla spaceship again for the time being. You just need to learn from your mistakes and get ahead further before you die again :) Some enemies and items will give out stars on destruction which will increase your multiplier when you pick them up. Other items give out '100' bonuses you can pick up which will be multiplied by the multiplier [b]Eugatron[/b] Your spaceship is thrown into the middle of a room with enemies which you have to clear before you get transported to the next. There are indestructable big enemies that just move around slowly, enemies that can be destroyed some of which shoot while others spawn new enemies. There are also items that give out the '100' bonuses upon destruction. When you reach certain scores an extra life is awarded. For a relatively simple survival game it took me quite some time to get familiar with it. Once it started to click it became very enjoyable and I worked myself up the leaderboard. I was clueless about some game mechanics which were later pointed out to me by the developer. [b]Tips[/b] The first enemy ship in Eugatron that gets destroyed will give out an upgrade if you're the one that destroys it. Picking up an upgrade will make you invincible for a short period of time. Your multiplier drops when you shoot. Try to get your multiplier up before you pick up bonuses. [b]Conclusion[/b] If you like challenging 80s retro shmups Cecconoid might be a game you enjoy. If you like twin stick shooters and/or survival games Eugatron will be a game you enjoy once you get accustomed to the 8-directional shooting. [b]Gameplay[/b] Here's a recording of me reaching the top score in Eugatron. In each level I tried to raise the multiplier to maximize scoring. https://youtu.be/4pcXhgWWR_E
Great old-skool style game in the style of popular 80s flip-screeners. If you remember a game called Plan B from Bug-Byte Software then it is comparable in monochrome visual style, though the gameplay is more comparable with game such as Cybernoid & Cybernoid II. It is also quite difficult and a good test for reflexes if you are a middle-aged gamer :-) Recommended!
Do you like Cybernoid? Do you wish it was even harder and more punishing? Then this is the game for you! But not for me. Sorry, too brutal.
Eh. It's well made and looks pretty nice, but it's overall pretty boring and slow for the most part. The old school "game over", limited lives, start back at the beginning of the game, doesn't really add much other than frustration. And the "Bonus arcade game" is equally generic and uninteresting Supposedly this is heavily inspired by some other classic games, and maybe its a good game by those standards. But as a standalone game, in the year 2021, It's not worth your time/money when compared to the plethora of great modern games. A couple alternative games I would strongly recommend over this game. Geometry Wars 3 - Arcade style twin stick shooter with a huge variety of game modes, leaderboards, and a pseudo campaign with stages and boss fights. 15$ frequently goes on sale for 8$ Monolith - Twin stick shooter, bullet hell, rouge-like. IMO Modern "rougelikes" are essentially just better versions of the classic "arcade" games. 8$ frequently goes on sale for 4$
WOW!! What a find!! This game brings back memories of playing that VERY hard Cybernoid on the NES! I remember playing it all the time with my father! If you want a real challenge then this one is for you!! So much fun! Price is fair! If you see it on sale GRAB IT! You wont regret it! Ohhhh and Triple Eh? Hahah Yeah I get I get it! hahaha
Rock hard shooter with bonus game Eugatron too! It’ll have you swearing and wanting to throw the controller somewhere, but you’ll still want “just one more go”.
Most of the negative reviews of this game reference the degree of difficulty. Yes, this game is really hard, and it's not forgiving in the least. Even so, it's very well-designed, is spot-on in its retro vibe, and still manages to be fun despite its steep difficulty level.
Baffling set of two games. Clearly a labor of love, but why? It's well made, but plenty worse than the games inspiring it. The main attraction Cecconoid is really tedious. The bonus game Eugatron is much more enjoyable to me, and I might recommend it to Robotron fetishists/completionists. But it's pretty unfair, and it's hard to even see what's going on with the monochrome graphics and tiny bullets.
In this video I take a look at Cecconoid, a retro inspired twin stick shooter. This game has two distinct modes, my favourite, an adventure mode where you try to navigate through screens and collect points as you go, and a survival arena mode where you shoot through waves as long as possible. The adventure mode is quite challenging, well made and fun. It's no cake walk but that's what makes it interesting. The survival mode is fast, bright, and a classic bullet hell twin stick situation. It's all retro inspired 8 bit graphics. Watch the video to see what the game is like... https://youtu.be/qnHw9BHKx24 Check'n Games Video Curation, providing you with as many Let's Play's as we can.
