The boss in The Depths gave me PTSD and then stole my girlfriend. 10/10, it's gonna be a yikes from me dawg.
https://youtu.be/AYI4ICzrWlg If you're looking to punish yourself with some difficult platforming on a budget this is your game! It has precise jumps and short levels that can provide the pain without overdoing it. I do wish the menu system was better so you could jump back into the game faster after dying.
Ruination the game came to me once when I had sleep paralysis. He sat down beside my bed and whispered softly in my ear "You can make as many jokes as you'd like but that won't change the fact that you have viewed the entirety of the 2016 film Suicidee Squad on three separate occasions". I tried to fight protest, "No it's not like that" I claimed, "I did it ironically, it doesn't count". But I knew deep down he was right, and since then I continue to slip deeper into black viscus ocean that is my own self-loathing, perhaps never to graced by the light of the sun again. Overall I give this game an 11/10, really the Dark Souls of 2D platformers.
Challenging and fun, though it is fairly short, and for me a bit too fast paced at times (that darn mushroom)
You may have heard this labeled as the next "Dark Souls" game, a term that seems to be thrown around whenever anything implements some D&D: difficulty and dodging. While certainly adept at both, to say that this is at all comparable to the popular franchise is borderline comedy, and inflates the importance of expectations one has going into it. Ruination is an attempt at a challenging afternoon with a crunch of ruthlessness, though not so through the accurate challenge of skill and robustness. For what it does, it's well worth the time, asking price, and effort. Anything more is likely hyperbole for the sake of it. + Great old-school challenge + Quality makes price a huge bargain + Neat sci-fi aesthetic - Lacking overall in content/variety - Controls take time to adjust to (if ever) - No music is an odd choice Read the full review at https://www.keengamer.com/article/20983_ruination-review
Ruination is legitimately one of the best games I have played this year. Normally I struggle to get into games with a higher difficulty but with Ruination is was different. Where normally I just feel frustration with Ruination I just felt focused to do better. When you get into it there is just a flow about it. Death after death goes by and slowly you get better and better. And then you do it. I can not remember the last time I lept out of my chair with excitement playing a game but 3 times I did it with Ruination. Overall it is short but masterfully constructed. I genuinely love this game.
I really enjoy this game, though it is quite difficult. I understand why some people say it is the Dark Souls of 2D platformers. I like the fast pace and the fact that you get to choose any gun you have unlocked in previous runs. Looking forward to beating this - hope for more content from this developer!
Jogo bom, gráfico bom, sound design bom, porém deixa a desejar na mira. Minha nota: 8/10 Pra ficar 10/10 é só criar uma opção de sensibilidade da mira, e adicionar mais armas, mapas e monstros.
Камера во время стрельбы так сильно трясётся, что я не могу в это играть, наблюдать за происходящим становится практически невозможно. Наверное если в это долго играть, вам станет плохо. В игре совсем нету музыки, сюжета или обучения. Будто разработчикам в определенный момент стало наплевать на игру.
Dude this game is really fun. I think I'm gonna end up becoming addicted! I would say there is a lack of music, but that may be personal preference. Also, the way the screen moves with your mouse makes it harder for me, but it may be personal preference again. Overall, I've really enjoyed what I've played! So glad it was cheap, cause otherwise I wouldn't have been able to play! Good job dude!
