Earth's Greatest Defender

⠀

A short but sweet (Early Access) game! My plan was to just give it a spin before my "morning" coffee, but ended up playing through the main mode on normal. It sucked me in real good. Gunplay, grappling hook, movement.. All feel pretty tight and i had no issues up until last mission, where some strange framedrops (and graphic glitches) occurred! - since it's not only Day 1 EA launch, but also a free passion project, I'm sure this is going to smooth out with time and feedback. Not played a game like this since.. well.. Broforce. And i had a good time. Leaving Review, so Steam can pick up on this Free(!) game, but might come back and edit over time, since i'm really too sleep deprived atm to write anything more than this! (And I will probably want to go and find more civilians at some point. They get so happy when you find them!) Give it a go, it might just be what you need in your life right now :))

Really fun game, took me back to the days of Liero which is a game a had a TON of fun with as a youngling. You can feel the love that has been poured into the game, it might look simple on the outside but everything from the sound effects, movement and responsive controls makes this a easy recommend. Now I haven't played for more then 30minutes but considering this game is free I had to share my first impression on it quick as it deservers it.

Simple, fast and engaging game =) Fun to play! Get ready for some action! (maybe some speedruns too)

I'll get the negatives out of the way first. -It requires a rather beefy computer to run so it probably isn't well optimized; my geforce 650 is chugging a bit. -Weapon balance might be a little off. Rockets and shotgun feel a bit weaker than the other weapons. -First few levels feel a bit sparse, should maybe have higher enemy density. Now the positives: -Good tutorial but controls are very intuitive anyway -Gameplay feels good, easy to get into -Cohesive graphics -Good music and sound -Lots of options for skill level -Hidden areas -Level editor (though I've not looked at it yet) -Free so why not?

Retro tarzı oyunları seviyorsanız bu oyun tam size göre. Tutma kancasıyla birlikte yumuşak hareket mekaniği, seviyeleri hızla geçen bir 2D örümcek adam gibi hissetmenizi sağlar. Oyunun başında verdiğiniz farklı silah seçenekleri, oyunu nasıl oynamak istediğinizi özelleştirmenize gerçekten olanak tanıyor. Bu, hızlı koşmak için harika bir oyun gibi geliyor ve geliştirici, hızlı koşu modunu da eklediğinden bunu biliyor gibi görünüyor!

I recommend

If you're into retro styled games, this is one for you. The smooth movement mechanics along with the grappling hook makes you feel like a 2D spider-man zipping through levels. The different weapon choices you've given right at the beginning of the game really allow you to customize how you want to play the game. This feels like a great game to speed run and the developer seems to have known that as they added a speed running mode as well!

Nice! Pure fun. It's a mix of Duke Nukem and Broforce. Tight controls, good movement, good enemy variety, good sound and music.
