Gamedev Beatdown

Not very optimized for controllers, the whole game dev part is very much a theme with lack of actual business elements. Not what i was expecting.

I am surprised that this game doesn't have more love. Roguelike, turn based fights, and an good art style. It hits a lot of perfect things for me. If you want an idea, think if Slay The Spire progression, classic turn based combat... arguments.... turn based arguments, and humor from something like Monster Prom (or maybe its Citizens of Earth? Something is giving me Citizens of Earth Vibes) had a baby and that baby decided that they wanted to make games and pop culture references their personality, then boom here you have it. After going through Act 2 once, I have to say that if they added in Act 3 or 4 that this game would be one that I played religiously. Heck, if they took the Acts and turned you into the bad guy in the end it would be a great "story" and could ease you into harder and harder over a couple more Acts. Right now it just ends with an indie developer, but if it went to a mid size and then a AAA over the course of a couple acts I would be happy. I would really enjoy just making more games before having to restart honest. The difficulty curve is kind of strange in that the first hour was exceedingly easy and the next hour it jumped up and became more of what I was looking for. Pros: -Super fun -You can tell love went into the game -Interesting concept Cons: -Short -Animations could use a little polish (But by no means look bad) Easily a 7.75/10 with some more polish, advertising, and acts. I think this game could be real gem.
