Death In Abyss

Yes. Just. YES. This game f**king rules.

what if ULTRAKILL and Iron Lung had a baby? what if that baby could give you carpal tunnel? (you should probably swap the buttons for ascend & decend, and then it'll control like a dream)

Great game. Snappy gameplay and mechanics, fun difficulty to master. Excellent vibes all around too with the sound design

Super good. Very fun. Very difficult. I'm not used to mouse and keyboard, but I managed to have fun and clear the game. I wonder if I missed any secrets. It's got a nice arcade-like vibe in a dark setting. Feels great to play.

Very cool, sound design & visuals are sick.

♥♥♥♥ goes crazy

Very challenging intense game play with little room for error. The visuals and sound design are impeccable and haunting. You sprint around at max speed always on the edge of death fighting darkness itself. So its a pretty good game but not for everyone and it will challenge you. Pushing yourself to your limit. Definitely worth a try for the demo!

It was. ABSOLUTE CINEMA, a wonderful game made by wonderful people also add A harder difficulty just for fun

It's a great game. You don't need to play it for a long time to see that. From the screenshots, you can tell if you like the visuals and playing for just 10 minutes shows you whether you like the gameplay. I do, as I find the controls very satisfying. With the simple structure the game is going for, it has to be carried by how good the moment-to-moment gameplay feels and how effectively it conveys its personality. This game nails both aspects, which makes me confident to recommend it after only playing for a short time. Obviously the game is greatly inspired by Devil Daggers. But I find it innovates on the concept nicely, giving you another axis of movement and a Dark Souls doge roll alongside a stamina mechanic. As a result, the gameplay focuses on your spatial awareness, as well as stamina management and quick reflexes. If you wanted more Devil Daggers, but Hyper Demon gives you an aneurysm, get this game instead.

I really enjoyed this game, It's a game that pushes you to optimize the way you fight given a simplistic control scheme and touch enemies, it pushes you out of your comfort zone not letting you relax, but that comes with a admittely poor first impression. The first two missions being basically the exact same set up an expectation that the whole game was going to be like that, and while I understand the star fox inspiration, i'd consider that a bit misleading putting that on the store page, the game is close to a twitchy 6dof shooter than star fox. That being said, what's underneath is really cool, the game manages to set up a lot of intrigue and atmosphere with almost zero setup, the controls are simple, but the scenarios you're put in keep the game interesting. The boss fights are *so* godamn cool and the highlight of the entire game for me, and there's so many small touches, like stacking error messages trying to pause during a cutscene that stand out as bits of polish that really make the game just that bit more enjoyable, It's worth picking up for a playthrough.
