Scud Frenzy

What can I say? Scud Frenzy is a great game! This isn't your typical platformer where you can simply stand in one place idley. Scud Frenzy is a fast paced guns blazing shooter, where if you stand still for a second you do so at your detriment. The artwork is all hand-drawn and is amazing! So if you like destroying everything in your path, and getting big rewards, this is the game for you. Look out for traps, and mind the monsters! I'd also like to say that this game will give you your money's worth and more.

Straight-up action, no nonsense. Love it. If you enjoy Windybeard's home-grown art style, and think outside the box concepts, this is another good title from this developer to add to your list. Great game play, style, and music for a very reasonable price in my opinion. The controls and object of the game are concise and easy to understand, and then the action of it is a learning experience. I enjoy how frantic and chaotic the game play itself is, whilst the user interface and menus are organized and intuitive. I always appreciate when a game has visually appealing, theme oriented thought put into them, and Scud Frenzy pulls that off perfectly. It's also pretty cool to have tons of cosmetic upgrades and choices for your Scud (character) that you unlock just by playing (no in-game purchases whatsoever - you buy the game, you have it all). The game also has a good sense of humour, and doesn't try to take itself too seriously. Some of the sound effects had me entertained to the point of laughing out loud (mostly the baddie death throws), and the fact that you're blasting everything to reveal broccoli, bananas and various gravy-covered meat options as loot was a fun touch that reminds me of decades past. Coins?! Rings?! Pffftt, give me pot roast any day! The "world maps," and organized way of displaying the levels and your associated progress, are great as well. The game play is no nonsense action, but the user interface has a collected calmness to it that is much appreciated. I guess what I mean to say is these different aspects work well together, being exactly what they each should be separately, never adversely affecting each other, but still tying the whole game together in theme. Scud Frenzy is well designed and had a lot of thought put into even the basic principles of what makes a game good, in my opinion. There's lots to do, lots to shoot, lots to collect, and lots of replay value (especially considering the reasonable cost). If you enjoy a bit of frantic score chasing, and unique indie fare, do yourself a favour and give Scud Frenzy a try =)
