Dyztopia: Post-Human RPG

Surprisingly well made game, much more involved combat than expected, lot's of customisation and even the story is interesting. Recommend.

It's a total gem.

I'm not sure just where to start with this review. Dyztopia is a stupendously well put together RPG game, solid in all departments. The battle system is very versatile and clever, making you utilise a variety of strategies to overcome your enemies. Simply maxing out your character's levels won't make things a piece of cake (it helps, but late game battles will still require careful thoughts and actions). The look and feel of the game is just classic, and the character designs are glorious (make sure to check out the playable character's portraits on the menu screen, they look SO good). The dungeons are equally fiendish and fun to play through, with puzzles and multiple pathways galore for you explorers to have fun with, and the towns and cities are easy to navigate with fun and quirky NPCs to chat with. As for the story, well, that's always my favourite thing about RPGs (this coming from someone who can spend countless hours level grinding) and Dyztopia takes you all over the place emotionally. I laughed. I cried. I giggled like the immature boy I am at some of the risque jokes and I got genuinely angry at some of the bad guys whilst feeling super sad for some of the other misunderstood villains. Look, there's not really much else I can say to sell this game to you. If you like classic RPG fun, then you'll like this. So stop reading my waffle and go start one heck of a journey with Akira and their friends!

A great and replayable RPG in almost every way conceivable. The most I can levy against it is that it lacks subtlety in its storytelling.

Adding character costumes made this game so much cooler. Fredek as an 80s Hair Metal band player? Instant classic Good amount of characters and skills to try out. Also low-key I love the character overworld sprites. I could listen to "It's Sho Time" and "I'M SO BIG" over and over again.

Dyztopia is a fun but complex RPG. I adored the story and characters, and felt that the writing was excellent all the way through. I personally don't think there are any huge surprises along the way, but it makes sense and is just incredibly enjoyable. The script is funny and charming, while also just tells a genuinely wonderful story. It gets pretty intense, is a little dark, and also even gets pretty emotional. I thoroughly enjoyed and there are even some branching decisions and alternate paths available that I'm interested in seeing. I'd also say it's short enough where multiple playthroughs aren't unreasonable at all. The combat, in my opinion, was extremely complex. So complex, that I didn't really understand it completely. I was kinda just hitting spells and things usually worked out. Once I found out what worked, I just used it on repeat. On normal difficulty, only the bosses really gave a challenge (which is not a complaint or issue) but I really can't speak too much on the "objective" quality of the combat system because a decent amount of it just went over my head. I understood enough to succeed in most battles without issue, but there is undoubtedly some more complex mechanics I did not process that you probably have to take advantage of on the harder difficulty. For me, Shotgun of Cards did a ton of heavy lifting. Overall, this game was totally awesome and I recommend it to anyone looking for an indie RPG and a really enjoyable story. Big shoutouts to Bass; your game is awesome and I am really looking forward to the sequel!!

I liked what I played so far. Game has a unique and interesting style. The gameplay was a bit on the easy side. Wanting to see more of the story. Definitely give it a try.

I do not typically play side-scrollers, but this game is definitely a great introduction! I immediately felt invested in the world building and story, without it being overly-complicated or challenging to follow. The sprites are really cute, and the characters are quirky and fun! The level designs are interesting visually and mechanically, and the more you play the game the more you begin to understand how each section works. I played on Easy Mode, and there are lots of helpful tips and tutorials to help get your bearings in this demonic world. The music is also really fun and had me bopping along as I demolished my foes! I look forward to seeing how the story ends. May the mythical duck guide you!

I've been a HUGE fan of this game since day 1. There's clearly so much passion in it, everything is thought out with love. The characters are all so well thought out, though obviously, I have my favorites (Barbados is my son). I especially like that there's different sprites for the enemies when they're hyped and harmed. Play it, love it, do it!
