Dead Dust

Dead Dust is one of a number of games from developer HugePixel, and the first of his offerings I have played. And hoo boy have I played it. Can't remember what I paid for it, but I can be rest assured that getting 17 hours of gameplay is a steal. Let me start by addressing the complaints from other reviewers: REVIEWER COMPLAINT 1 - "It's too hard": When I first started playing I agreed with this sentiment. I thought as it was a twin stick shooter, that naturally an X-Box controller would be the best option. Like another reviewer, I think I made it to the second level, MAYBE the third but after that it was game over man. The enemy difficulty sure does ramp up tenfold once they get guns, but isn't that just how it works in real life? Massacring unarmed enemies is bad for the soul anyway. I had given up hope on this game, until I started playing with the keyboard and mouse. WASD to move, Q to switch weapons, E to pick up, left mouse button to shoot, right mouse button for each character's special ability. Pretty soon, I was ducking and weaving through the bad guys, picking them off one by one with violent precision and dancing circles around the boss characters. In fact I think on my first attempt with M&K, I managed to get to the final level. REVIEWER COMPLAINT 2 - "The music is repetitive": This could be true if you only ever see the first level or two. However, it does change between levels, and really it would be unfair to criticise for a lack of originality. I believe the music is written for the game, so it is hardly generic. It is fitting, but yes I can understand that if you never get further than the first level or two, it will seem very repetitive. I actually rather like the music, and it has some fun little motifs that are very apt. REVIEWER COMPLAINT 3 - "Achievements are broken": I actually thought this was the case myself. I had played for around 12 hours and was still missing two achievements. The developer kindly informed me that I had to delete my save game as an update had come out since I initially installed the game, and that was causing a conflict. After deleting the save and playing for another couple of hours, everything unlocked as it ought. My own final thoughts: I loved the graphical style. Nice bold pixel art, and each character is well designed to mimic an "iconic Western hero", albeit with a play on their name to avoid any copyright infringements. I rarely used anyone other than "Schlango" as his roll ability is very useful for avoiding gunfire and quickly moving to collect dropped loot. The music is fine, and the sound effects are decent. This is not a game designed to be an audio visual masterpiece, it's just fun for quick blasts, for trying to unlock the secret characters, for trying to get the achievements and trying to get just a little further through the campaign. Everything is nice and clear and functional. Really the art style and sound design is pretty nice and cohesive throughout. Most levels take place on a static map, be it a desert canyon or a frontier town. You have a number of enemies that must be eradicated and then you progress to the next level. A couple of levels mix this up a little with dynamic scrolling levels and they are nicely implemented. On sale for less than £1, I would heartily recommend this to anyone who enjoys a twitchy twin stick shooter. Definitely play with mouse and keyboard, and allow yourself a half hour to really figure out the required play style. All guns blazing is not always the answer. I have had more than my fair share of fun from this game. I love twin stick shooters. If you do too, so long as you aren't afraid of a little challenge, you should get plenty of enjoyment from this little Western gem.

I got this game at discount. On the store page, the artstyle of this game shows promise, but I have been betrayed by far too many games with good arty and bad coding / design. The reason I kept myself from adding another game to my library which I may never play. This game is good, though. It has the vibes of Nuclear Thrones (similar difficulty as well) but there are differences - simple ones that make the gameplay significantly different. In Dead Dust, you have to keep picking enemy weapons, at least the guns, pretty frequently. You are not forced to, by a rule, but I guess that is the way to go. At the price it is available, this game is an unappreciated gem. You won't regret adding this game to your library. [b]Suggestions[/b] to Developer: - Option to turn the music off. Strongly recommended!

西部劇のゲームなのに銃弾が少なすぎて銃は殆ど使えず、斧や槍で戦うハメになる。なんでガンマンが銃を使えないのか？開発者はどういうつもりで西部劇ゲームを作ったのか？救急箱の回復量も少なすぎて難易度が高いし戦闘していても爽快感が無く面白みが無い。ゲームパッド対応だが斧や槍を投げて攻撃するには親指で右スティックを使いながらXボタンを押さないといけない仕様で右手の親指がもう一本必要。ボタン変更も出来ないのでキーボード＋マウスでやらないとツラい。似たような画面のシューターならNuclear Throneあたりをやった方がよっぽど良いし、西部劇シューターならColt Canyonを買った方が良いです。

Не знаю, у кого как, но у меня примерно каждый забег в DD выглядит так: 1) Секунд через 40 после начала заканчиваются патроны 2)Еще через секунд 15 заканчивается хп 3)Так три раза подряд 4)Посос

不错的游戏

A história se passa no velho oeste, você joga com um caçador de recompensas chamado Shlango, que recebe um pedido de ajuda para resgatar a filha de um influente dono de saloon que foi sequestrada pelos fora-da-lei, então junto a outros dois companheiros, Marines e Copkern, partem ao longo de sete fases para resgatar a menina. Embora simples e relativamente curto, [b]Dead Dust[/b] apresenta um elevado nível de dificuldade, consistindo em inimigos bastante precisos e em número alto, quando um personagem morre, você escolhe um dos outros dois para lutar em seu lugar, e caso perca todos, o jogo acaba. Mas não se preocupe, outros dois personagens podem ser liberados durante o progresso do jogo, aumentando o número de mercenários para cinco. Cada personagem começa com uma arma específica e uma habilidade única, as armas possuem munição que acaba, mas pode reabastecida, você também pode usar armas brancas indígenas, como tomahawks e lanças, além de clássicas, como revólveres, rifles e outras. Existe um contador de inimigos no começo de toda fase, eliminando todos eles você passa para a próxima tela. Algumas moedas são deixadas por cada inimigo abatido, juntando cem delas, você consegue 1 Dólar, que pode ser usado para comprar armas, munição e saúde no saloon, mas também é possível obter os mesmos itens saqueando baús, quebrando barris ou pegando próximo aos corpos dos inimigos. O jogo é bem curto e a batalha final não foi tão difícil assim, esperava por mais, carece de algumas opções no áudio e música e usa configurações de controle, teclado e mouse já definidas ao jogador, impossibilitando quaisquer ajustes. Mesmo assim é bem legal e desafiador, a trilha sonora é bem construída e gostosa de ouvir, possui algumas conquistas fáceis de obter (embora no console tenha algumas mais), a experiência pode ser menos frustrante no controle, mas funciona bem com teclado e mouse.

棒

great indie game and it was made by just two guys! It is a very difficult game, but over time you will get the hang of it and will want to play more and more!

Il gioco è davvero carino, è abbastanza rigiocabile e il livello di sfida è perfetto, lo consiglio a tutti gli amanti degli sparatutto con vista dall'alto, vale pienamente il suo prezzo

Great game that took me about 40 minutes to finish. Fun, simple gameplay. Didn't overstay its welcome like many games tend to do these days. Easy to get the hang of. Good music. I'm glad I checked this one out. If anyone's interested, this was pretty similar to Super Trench Attack -- another game I really enjoyed.
