Melhor que muito jogo pago por aí. Recomendo.
Graphics ☐ Outstanding ☐ Beautiful ☑ Decent ☐ Boring ☐ Ugly Nice pixel art! Nothing amazing, but enough that it's pleasant to look at and doesn't detract from the game. In a bullet hell game it's very important that the bullets are easy to see and that the visual lines up with the collision area; the game does this just fine. The game does lose some points for the fact that the game window is tiny and you can't make it any bigger :( Gameplay ☐ Amazing ☑ Great ☐ Good enough to keep playing ☐ Repetitive ☐ Bad I'm a sucker for a good bullet hell game, and this one delivers! I like the complexity added: you can choose different bullet types, you can have the side heads shoot bullets as well, you can have the side heads circle around you, you can dash, strafe, etc. Lots of different things to consider strategy wise. Audio ☐ Listen to the soundtrack for fun ☑ Great ☐ Good ☐ Maybe ☐ Just turn the sound off The music is great and totally fits the theme! It can get a bit repetitive though so you might get sick of it before the game is over. The sound effects are awesome and really help the game feel fleshed out. Story ☐ Captivating ☐ Good ☑ There for those who want it ☐ Cringeworthy ☐ There is no story The game has a little bit of plot, but mostly just focuses on the gameplay. Difficulty ☐ Easy ☐ Significant brain usage ☑ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Not so easy ☑ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls While the game is relatively easy to learn, actually beating enemies (especially bosses) is much harder. Thankfully, there are lots of checkpoints (including a checkpoint right before the final boss). Expect to retry many, many times, possibly rage quitting to return another day. (And you can't save at checkpoints, so when you open up the game later you'll have to go through the level all over again). Of course, that does make victory all the more satisfying. Just be aware of what you're getting into. Balancing ☐ Enemies adjust to match your level ☐ Players doing poorly get a boost ☐ Players doing well get taken down a notch ☐ You are matched against opponents similar in skill to you ☐ The game is mostly random/luck-based anyway ☑ No balancing No balancing. If you're doing poorly, too bad. AI players ☑ AI is good ☐ AI is too good ☐ AI is too bad Enemies are smart, but not unreasonably so; it feels like a fair defeat rather than cheating. Multiplayer ☑ Recommended with friends ☑ Recommended with strangers To play this game multiplayer, your co-player must be able to handle frustration and possibly being unable to play for significant stretches of time. If one person dies, they stay dead until you reset at a checkpoint (i.e., the other player dies too) or you leave the level. Just make sure everyone agrees to this and you should be fine. I have only done local multiplayer, so I can't say whether things like remote play work or not. Grind ☐ There is nothing to grind ☐ Only if you care about leaderboards/ranks ☑ Only if you are a completionist (e.g., achievements) ☐ Isnt necessary to progress ☐ A bit grindy sometimes ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ Insanity If you missed the treasure the first time, you'll need to replay the level (and you might want to use a guide) to get it. Otherwise, no grinding necessary unless you're going for achievements like boss rush. Replayability ☐ Short game, so you are expected to play many times ☐ Yes, the game changes significantly with each playthrough ☑ Yes, if you care about achievements and/or alternate endings ☑ Yes, to unlock stuff ☐ So fun you'll want to play it again ☐ Don't bother A full playthrough will take you a while unless you're really good, so unless you really like the game or are going for the achievements/unlockables, you probably won't replay this. Game Time ☐ Really short (0 - 3 hours) ☐ Short (4 - 10 hours) ☑ Few hours (10 - 20 hours) ☐ Kind of long (20-40 hours) ☐ Long (40-60 hours) ☐ Very Long (61-100 hours) ☐ Extremely Long (101+ hours) Not sure on this one since I haven't finished the game (set it aside for now due to difficulty), but I know that I'm 7 hours in and have completed most of the levels, so I would guess it would take maybe like 10-12 hours for me to complete. Completing a single level takes under an hour (unless you're doing a LOT of replaying from checkpoints). At any rate, you won't finish this game in one sitting. Price ☑ Free ☐ Just buy it ☐ Worth the price ☐ Wait for sale ☐ Maybe if you have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended I mean, is there any reason NOT to try out a free game that looks like fun? Go for it.
for free overall alright.
Игра «Chasing Styx» — это атмосферное приключение с элементами психологического триллера. Геймплей строится на исследовании, решении головоломок и разгадке тайн, что создаёт напряжённую атмосферу. Сюжет о поиске пропавшего человека в мистической обстановке держит в напряжении, а визуальный стиль и звуковое сопровождение усиливают ощущение тревоги. Хотя некоторые механики могут показаться сложными, игра заставляет задуматься о человеческой природе и страхе. Рекомендую тем, кто любит загадочные истории с глубоким сюжетом.
Malgres un aspect enfantin , ce jeu est assez hardcore ! imaginez un Zelda (enfin les decors) ou vous devez detruire tout les monstres a coup de boule de feu avec votre chien a trois tetes ! Il a aussi la capacite de bouclier qui arrete les balles ennemies et croyez moi ca sera tres utile ! Les commandes sont souples et repondent bien Bref a posseder si vous voulez rager pendant 10 minutes .... Et il est GRATUIT ! Interet 11/20 Realisation : 12/20
o jogo é bom, dei uns rages top mas ainda sim é mt boa a sensação de qnd vc passa de fase ou consegue um item novo
