Fun little maze climber. Each enemy has their own behavior type and learning what to do in each situation and which powerups to use to get as far as possible is satisfying!
Gimmick in the Chaos Dimension is a delightful romp back to the times of coin-op arcade games. Times where you put in a quarter, went until you died, then did it again. Except now there's also skills that you can level up between games! Nothing could stop me from unlocking every achivement. I streamed it for hours. There's even record keeping of your best runs! I can't wait to see what they do next, and look forward to the next Gimmick game!
Picked this up to support my friend, Mousey. Played once and I could describe this as fun and addicting. Will def be playing again.
Reminiscent of old classic arcade games, Gimmick is really good to have in your library if you want something to play in quick bursts between tasks but still want to keep your brain sharp since it's a good exercise in planning out your path quickly and making the best of your abilities - it's got that good "one more go" quality to it for sure. If you want something more out of it than a quick break game, it also happens to be good for challenging yourself too, to see how high a score you can get or see how far you can go. The music's pretty easy on the ears too as an added bonus!
It's a pretty fun and simple game. It's pretty easy to understand what's going on such as enemy behaviour and level progress, especially if you have previous exposure to arcade games like Pacman. The science/exploration theme is definitely a soft spot for me and I found myself trying to think of the best possible route to avoid enemies and progress forwards. I would definitely play more of this to pass time. The only complaint is the scrolling feels a bit jarring for my eyes, maybe it's just me.
An endless arcade-style maze game with combat, upgrades, and unlockables. Lots of different weapons and abilities to play around with, plus there are multiple different maze styles each with their own look and music, so things don't get stale. Easy to sit down, jump in, and sink some time into this enjoyable little game - would recommend!
Fun little maze runner game in the style of old window's games. Get little weapons, blow up shapes, collect coins, pass college. Main character is cute as heck, putting Cammy to shame with GRATUITOUS thigh exposure.
A game that's easy to say "just one more round" it's somewhat reminiscent of old school flash and NES games, but unlocking and modifying your kit makes for good fun deciding what to bring in, as some skills destroy enemy projectiles and blockades, whereas others might destroy many enemies in a wide radius offering a surprising amount of thought when climbing through the maze. A fun game in small bursts, if there was one thing that could be improved upon it is the sudden jerky nature the game scrolls, it's hard on my eyes, but all in all, a fun game to try and get farther and farther in!
adorable and comfy retro arcade-style maze runner. i never really play retro arcade-style games and i certainly didn't grow up on them, but somehow gimmick sparks intense nostalgia in me?? i really like that you can equip and level different abilities for each run, and having achievements + unlockable cosmetics is great!
Been playing this between projects and its been a good nostalgia trip. I like the change of pace, especially with the key controls and the music. Enough chat, its time to explore The Chaos Dimension! -Great game Mousey.
