Rock Boshers DX: Directors Cut

Fun -brings me back to the 80's.

Изумительное ретро. Всё сделано в том самом духе ZX-Spectrum. Стиль Dendy/NES ставить только тем кто не застал то самое начало 90х. Загрузочный экран доводит до оргазма ^-^

I wish I liked twinstick shooters. Excellent flufftext and style, pulls off its pulp fiction victoriana retro arcade thing with aplomb. It reminds me of DROD, but live instead of turnbased. Expect puzzlerooms of the find-key / put it in the door / rinse repeat variety, with constantly respawning enemies so you have to be able to aim and dodge while navigating small rooms and tight corridors. I really, really wish I liked twinstick shooters. Still, it's a delightful game and more people should play it.

Super jeu !! encore une fois rien à dir,le jeu n'est pas facile et se complique au fur et à mesure de la progression. Ce n'est pas forcement en bourinant que ça passe mieux,il faut réfléchir à une technique pour passer chaque niveau!! Il y a meme des mini jeux ARCADE à Scoring à débloquer.. Je conseil à tous les Fans de rètro comme moi qui adore et ne suis pas déçu... OUI !! bien sur que je conseil !!!

Let's not pretend this is the best thing since sliced bread: this is a cheap and cheerful, if amusing, pastiche of a Spectrum game, with modern touches such as "it's basically fair". It was amusing and harmless for two hours, it pushed my nostalgia button (particularly the sound of the attributes loading in on the loading screen), and that's that. Recommended to people like me because it's cheap.

A lot of people needlessly get hung up, for better or for worse, on the genre or the category of a game. On the other hand, some games get hung up in the same way. You end up with misguided critics, and major studio titles that feel disjointed, forced, or have major elements "slapped on". Rock Boshers, however, is *purely* a fantastic game. The style, the feel, the sophistication, the polish, the awe, the humor, and the challenge soar with such harmony and finesse. Rock boshers is an engrossing and ecstatic experience. This is the real deal. Bravo and Brava.

Thought it was gonna be fun. Turns out this game is hell. 10/10

I'd first like to say that I absolutely love the original Rock Boshers. It is definitely one of my favorite Indie Games, if not my favorite. It captures all of the asethetics of ZX gaming to its fullest beauty, provides interesting and creative gameplay, a good chunk of difficulty (I still haven't beaten it after all of these years), and some light humor. I always assumed development of the game would go no where and it would fade into obscurity. Being remembered as merely a demake like Gang Garrison. Man was I ever overjoyed when I discovered that DX existed! I haven't played it long yet, but it's definitely better than the original (which is a must-get already). Here's my breakdown... -Graphics: Fantastic. It's difficult to work with such a minimal sprite resolution, but Dugan does it masterfully. I was worried that the graphics were updated when I saw the screenshots, but you can choose between Console Mode and Old Computer mode, so no worries. Very faithful to the ZX aesthetic. -Sound: Just fine. Nothing repetitive or annoying. -Music: The soundtrack is great. Though I'm personally pretty disappointed that the original old-school sounding soundtrack is not an option. It really added to the atmosphere. Gameplay: I haven't gotten far yet, but the controls are tight, and I assume the difficulty will get as hard (if not harder) than the original. Which is really hard. If you like old school, minimal, or just plain unique games; do yourself a favor and buy this. Edit: Aw, what the hell? PS4 players get 4 Player Local Battle!? Why is that not included in the PC version? The game is an homage to old COMPUTER games and the developers leave out features for the COMPUTER release. How disappointing!
