Eternal Circus: Dancing with Missiles

10/10 OYUN... Tek kötü tarafı... Çok kısa olması... Böyle güzel 1 oyunu daha fazla oynayabilmek isterdim.

cool capstone project yeah

This is an extremely smooth, polished, and fun missile dodge-em-up with some great art and an excellent soundtrack. Check it out!

Игра 'Eternal Circus: Dancing with Missiles' – это безумный коктейль из хардкорного bullet hell шутера и ритм-игры. Сначала было сложно привыкнуть к необходимости двигаться в такт музыке, одновременно уклоняясь от града снарядов, но как только словил ритм, оторваться невозможно! Визуальный стиль неоново-яркий, с психоделическими узорами, что идеально подходит к бешеному темпу происходящего. Музыка динамичная и заводная, она отлично синхронизирована с уровнями. Сложность достаточно высокая, но игра щедро вознаграждает за упорство новыми способностями и усилителями. Боссы - настоящие испытания, требующие идеальной координации и умения читать паттерны атаки. Небольшим минусом могу назвать то, что игра может показаться однообразной после нескольких часов, но разнообразие оружия и персонажей немного сглаживают этот момент. В целом, 'Eternal Circus' – это отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет динамичный, сложный и визуально привлекательный инди-проект. Рекомендую!

"Eternal Circus: Dancing with Missiles" is a low poly 3D minimalist bullet hell/shmup trying to rip off the Macross franchise while also trying not to infringe copyrights much. The idea is that you need to avoid missile swarms, and your low poly blob is a Valkyrie variable geometry transforming mecha (but don't sue!). What do you do in the game? Well, it's a boring classical bullet hell, really. Omnidirectional dodging on a 2D plane... over incredibly samey, lacklustre levels with repetitive, bland gameplay. Basically once you've played this for 5 minutes you've seen everything. However, playing for 5 minutes is a challenge, not just because of the poor controls, it's also buggy and unreliable. Could have used a lot more testing before this was ready for the old Steam Direct $100. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D graphics which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers. It's very difficult to recommend bad looking games. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. Most "free" games on Steam aren't really free. There's usually some kind of monetisation, from nasty mobile app cash shops, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, to any other number of shady pricing schemes 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, or something you might want to spend your time on. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 11 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Given that this free title won't increase your game collector count, is it worth your time to add it to your library? Pass on this one. There's no immediate financial commitment, but there are thousands of more compelling games on the platform that will give you a lot more enjoyment for your time.
