Video Review: https://youtu.be/kBW4pB1MqZ4 I'm having a great time playing Gunlock. It has a good amount of enemy variety and even though the game has only three levels none of the enemies are recycled. That means each level is completely different. I think a lot of games take the easy route and reuse enemies to "expand" a game but it gets old. In Gunlock there are no worries about that and plenty of reasons to keep playing to get the high score. Other review saying 18min, are you joking!? I put over four hours into this game and I could still keep playing. New guns and color pallets are purchasable with found gold. Some of these guns completely change how you play. It's a distillation of arena combat in their own style. It's pure arcade fun with none of the extras.
Little arcadey gem with a fantastic soundtrack and a nice look. The gameplay's fun, quick, and fluid with Meat Boy-esque fast restarts for the many deaths you'll probably have across the three endless levels. Definitely a game to pick up and easily lose track of time trying to top your own score. It's literally the price of a candybar.
Highest quality ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game ever.
Gunlock is a simple single screen arcade style scoreathon, featuring an en vogue Game Boy™ pixel art style and pallet. Evocative of arcade and home console video games of the 80s, the action takes place in a arena that wraps at the edges with the goal to either kill or be killed. Your performance in Gunlock is measured by combo multipliers and total score. Progression is made by defeating bosses to unlock further arenas and by collecting dropped nuggets. Nuggets are then spent on further weapons and colour pallets. I did not enjoy all of the guns available and found myself selecting my favorite 3, but this does give you the option choosing how you want to play and is a welcome option. The mechanics of the game are explained well enough in a brief tutorial level and can be expressed with a keyboard and mouse or controller. Having tried both control options I found that unsurprisingly I was more accurate with a mouse than a analog stick or steam controller touch pad. The action felt tangible enough through the controls that any failure felt like it was my fault rather than any fault of my controls. The enemies come at you in waves, getting progressively trickier but also fair as you advance. I felt like each enemy was teaching me something about the game and its mechanics or at least reminding me. Once you have dispatched with enough foes the arena boss makes an appearance to give you a final exam, and can take a few tries to master. The art style is very well realised but distracting at times. I found myself not noticing enemies due to the colour pallet on occasion. However once I had locked in a zen state with the game this ceased to be an issue. I can appreciate why the game has the art style it has, and if had one thing I could say to the developer it would be to carry on with the pixel art style because you clearly have developed a talent for it, but I would like to see more colour in future titles. The sound design and music is fitting for the aesthetic, featuring 8bit tones and noise layered with the odd wild west whistle. I enjoyed the sound and music, it feels appropriate for the action happening on screen. There is a lack of sound from the enemies (unless I just didn’t notice) but I feel this may have been overkill, as the game strikes a nice balance between gunfire and music. I really enjoy Gunlock, it's a great game to easily spend a few rounds or an hour on. It requires no investment from the player other than the development of your ability to improve and reach higher scores. While there are a few minor things that nagged me about the game overall I would recommend this game and say that it is worth your time and money, especially if you enjoy polished retro style arcade games.
Always love how every color palette in this game is made up of only 4 colors at a time. Really amazes me, because all of the levels look really nice. There's a wide variety of colors to choose from, and each one changes the feel of the game to me. Very nice feature, I'm a fan. Game moves very fast. After you die, new game starts right up, no having to press a button or anything. Decent weapon variety, leaderboards are fun to go after, and game just received a fourth stage! New content!

Got this for $1.19 and for the fun I had I felt like I stole something from the devs. Good job on this game and I am looking forward for your next game [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/613190/Unworthy/] Click Here[/url]. To see Unworthy on steam. its a very casual game, if you ever played "Super Crate Box" which is a free game on steam, you'd be familiar with this game because it has the same concept. The game has 4 levels, 15 weapons, 10 color palletes to choose from. Every time you pickup ammo it fills and changes your weapon to another one from the ones you bought. You shoot the enemies and can jump on them to damage them and refill some of your ammo. Every level has a bar to fill once filled you'll fight the boss, once defeated you'll go back to filling the bar, basically all levels are endless since this is a "how far can you " score game, the next level unlocks once you beat the current level's boss. You die in pretty much one hit from anything. Very good selection of weapons, shotguns , lasers , energy rifles , missiles and more they're very cool. Love the retro style of the game, the soundtrack and SFX are perfect. Want a casual retro feeling game to play for 2-3 hours ? This babe is for you.
A great little fast paced and stylized arcade game I will spend much more time with! https://youtu.be/oxRBfO82eZA
