I'm still waiting for something to eat my alien, but in the meanwhile I'm enjoying one of the best guns in gaming. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZhH8RLo7xM Watch my video to see gameplay for yourself, but if you've already played SteamWorld Dig then you know the drill. Your goal is to dig for resources, put things together, dig some more, and enjoying the ongoing exploration. The highlight to me is that SAMA's gun is always satisfying to use. Oh, and the jetpack works great too in case you make the mistake of digging straight down. Puzzles are simple enough if you're paying attention but you'll easily mess up if you dig first and think second. The controls are responsive, but you'll absolutely want to remap them. Graphics are nice, being hunted is fun, and the music is relaxing but perhaps too understated. Either the digging genre of games is for you or it's not. If it is, SAMA is a worthy addition to the genre. If you've never played one before, its charm might win you over.
Love this game! Playin at normal setting it's a nice mix of exploration with the right edge of danger and challenging but not too hard puzzle solving. Once you get the trick of the bosses, they're not too bad. But I haven't fought the last one yet.... I got stuck in Levantos (that place is confusing) and Ron was very helpful. I'm looking forward to the sequel!

Tolles Spiel! Die Welten sind stimmungsvoll, die Steuerung sehr präzise und dass nach dem Update die Schwierigkeit im Spiel geändert werden kann ist super! Warum? Mir waren die Bossgegner sonst zu schwer, dazu fehlt mir der Nerv, nach 50 Versuchen verliere ich die Lust. Also spiele ich das eigentliche Spiel auf der mir passenden Stufe und schalte vor dem Levelboss auf easy, perfekt. Das ganze Spiel ist übrigens eher ruhig, für mich perfekt um am Abend etwas zu entspannen...
Your air is running out and Something is lurking in the shadows. Hand painted 2D side scrolling puzzle solving, mining and collecting goodness are awaiting you in SAMA! You are tasked with collecting materials and scouting for objects as you are forced to do the bidding of another for their own benefit. This involves running around, jet packing, shooting, and lots and lots of mining of materials. Each planet has a unique look and is dispersed with an assortment of teleport spots, puzzles, and lots of materials to collect. As you progress you are also offered upgrades to your gear which help you to do more and progress in the game. Ultimately, you will be mining and wandering looking for puzzles to solve. while killing baddies and avoiding death. The puzzles usually involve a set of blocks with colors on them and a location they need to be moved. It's a bit like Tetris and a sliding puzzle with a bit of gravity. You enter a puzzle room and figure it out, resetting the room as needed, when completed you are rewarded of course, then move onto the next room's puzzle wherever it may be. Graphically it's beautiful, and looks amazing in 4K. The hand painted art feels like it was designed with a lot of love and care. Each tile and character has its look and feel, and you will stop playing at times just to watch everything on screen looking and feeling very alive. The GUI can be adjusted to suit your needs including the mini map which can be zoomed in and out to help you find your way. Overall it looks great. Gameplay is pretty standard, you move your character around and mine, shoot, jet pack, and repeat. Using mouse or gamepad makes the game easy to use and you should find yourself right at home once you get the feel of the controls. If using a gamepad, make good use of that "lock" button that stops you in place to aim/shoot. It will save your bacon many times as you hover and shoot those pesky baddies. Overall, its a well polished and solid gaming experience that I have enjoyed fully. It does have some quirks but overall it's a solid platformer that will bring you a good amount of fun and gameplay. If this sounds good to you, please try it, it is super fun!

Just finished the first planet and I'm hooked =) The game starts at a nice calm pace with excellent tutorials/game hints etc then the gradually the pace quickens then all of the sudden you are in the middle of a gunfight with monsters everywhere, no oxygen, no health and lots of alarms are going off and then you will most probably die! I really like it and the puzzles are a nice bit of calm in the storm. They can take me ages and there is regularly the 'doh' moment at the last moment when you need to start again but definitely a great part of the game. The finale (no spoilers) at the end of the first world was great and was well worth the 3 hours to get there! Can't wait for the next world and some upgrades to my mining laser and weapons. Great gameplay / funny plot, amazing artwork, good shooting mechanics and atmospheric music! What more can you ask for £11! High recommended - any age group!
Great, fun game for the price. You have to like digging games and collecting. Puzzles are of varying difficulty but all soluable. Only two really had me head scratching for a while but a bit of thought and experimentation and I eventually solved them. Great controls, nice ability progression. For a game written by just one person I'm amazed.
This is such a cool game! For somebody who doesn't play much it is easy to get into and not knowing what's coming creates a nervous feeling with almost a sense of butterflies in your stomach! The artistry work in the game is really effective and engaging. So far I really find the game very addictive and exciting.
