CICADAMATA"

The gameplay, music, level design, & aesthetic all come together to make a phenomenal bite-sized FPS. Can't wait to see more from this developer ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I really love the sound design and the visuals, but it really falls short as a movement shooter. The player character is too floaty for quick and sharp movement, and the main weapon is far too weak (the basic fodder enemies take multiple point blank shotgun blasts to kill, even the tiny birds take 2 each), which makes killing enemies feel slow. No sliding as far as I can tell, and momentum isnt preserved in the air like it is in other games (Ultrakill). Until the feel is refined, I can't recommend this game.

Picked up this game for the artstyle and to fulfill a minor craving of a boomer shooter/ultrakill type of game. Honestly I was presently surprised with the amount of fun I've had perfecting my runs in each sphere, repeating levels and learning more efficient ways to clear the level. Seeing that DIAMND ranking show up and my global rank jump by a couple hundred gave me a nice little dopamine rush. So yeah, low price & lots of fun. No reason to not pick CICADAMATA" up for a spin. Just remember... + THIS IS WHO YOU ARE NOW

FPS timetrial scoreattack game - kill everything as fast as possible in a giant chain, collect 4 spheres and get to the end. Very stylish with top notch presentation and has great sound design and soundtrack. The time bonus from completing levels faster is large, but chaining a massive combo and efficiently dispatching enemies is vastly more significant. Gameplay revolves around your abilities (ground slam and dash), which are either on a short cooldown or can be instantly refreshed by using them on an enemy. The difficulty of the game comes from creating the most efficient route to keep your combo going to get the highest score. Shooting is secondary, but is great to either pump more points out of a single target, or to kill enemies that are too far away to change your route for. Level design is fairly intuitive for the most part. Only thing I can put against this game is it's length. I've beat all the main stages at the highest rank at 4 hours. I'm pretty hooked by the story and world but after 18 levels that's all you get. This is very clearly a prelude to something else (self described as an initiation) and plot is left vague and open, but there is currently nothing.

hey neon white, cyber hook, ghostrunner family.. its time to eat! I wish we had even more like this, so good.

TEAR FLESH FROM BONE

Ultrakill ve Neon White'ı harmanlayıp Marathon'un art style'ını ekleyince bu oyun ortaya çıkıyor. Oyun çok kısa ve basit mekanikler üzerine inşa edilmiş ancak o kadar güzel bir glitchcore estetiği var ki sırf onun için bile oynamaya değerdi benim için. Tek silahla pek hareket etmeyen sabit objelere sıkıp parkurda yönümüzü bulmaya çalışıyoruz ve pek olmayan hikayenin vibe'ını tadıyoruz kısaca. Biraz daha oynanış çeşitliliği ve hikaye eklenirse çok güzel potansiyellere sahip ancak şu haliyle oyunun muazzam artwork'ünün yanında biraz yavan kalmış. Yine de çıtır çerezlik alıp oynanabilecek keyifli bir oyun.
