Escape From Castle Matsumoto

和風スパイvsスパイです。 まんまファミコンのスパイvsスパイなので、好きだった人なら楽しめるはず。操作方法はタイトル画面のHOW TO PLAYを選択してF3押すとブラウザで確認できます。 気になる点として ・パッドでボタン余りまくりなので罠の選択はLRでも出来るようにしてほしい。 ・マップはワンボタンで出せるんだから罠選択のところには必要ない。 さすがにボリュームはないですが無料だし、オンラインできるっぽいのでフレンドと遊べるのであれば楽しめる思います。

Probably it´s a good game, but I can´t really find any enjoyment in it, with the two main problems probably being that the controls are scattered all over the keyboard, while you cant change them and the fact that the text is way too pixulated, so that I just didn´t end up reading how you should actually play the game and just ended up doing some random mess. Decide for yourself.

Çalınan eşyaları kurtarmak ve Japon kalesinden kaçmak için birbirleriyle yarışan iki shinobi, rakiplerini alt etmek için zekalarını ve hilelerini kullanır. 3D piksel sanatı kullanan retro bölünmüş ekran düello arcade oyunu.

"Escape From Castle Matsumoto" is a 2D retro pixel game (I know, I know) with a few big differences from the rest of the amateur spam... this one has much higher production values, and most importantly it's a very faithful homage to the old Commodore 64 era of gaming. That authenticity is what most pixelcrap games lack, because in almost all cases, pixel "art" is just used as an excuse. It still looks bad, remember, it's the year 2025, nobody is paying $5000 on a gaming rig to play Commodore 64 games, but at least it's authentic. Gameplay is almost reminscient of the old Mad Magazine Spy vs Spy games where you fight an opponent in splitscreen... the Spy vs Spy traps here are replaced with an equally authentic 1980's The Last Ninja style ninja combat game. The problem chiefly aside from the pixel "art" are locked controls and a bit of incoherent and genuinely unsmooth gameplay feeling. While I said they're authentic, this features really godawful, lazy pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks bad (but authentic!) because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded [i]despite[/i] the bad graphics, not because of them. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 5 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? This is a "maybe" experience... if you have a lot of free time on your hands and nothing else to do, why not? But for the purposes of a review, this isn't something I can say everyone must try. It's not quite there. Valve doesn't give us a "maybe" option in reviews, but if they did, that's what I'd choose for this. Yes, I really gave a "maybe" to a pixelcrap game. Certainly I hope the developer goes on to bigger and better things.

cool game.
