SWORDCAR

♥♥♥♥ YOU, SWORDCAR! Anyways, to be serious, simply saying "♥♥♥♥ you, swordcar!" isn't doing much to help anyone, so I do have a real review of my short time with the game. The biggest thing is that I have completed the released story inside of my 0.9 hours of playtime at time of writing, so if this interests you, you're buying into a VERY early access. There's not a lot released with 3 cars, 3 spells, and 2 boss fights. Despite that, the concept is fun and the mechanics seem to be pretty well nailed down. The game is pretty difficult, requiring pretty precise control of your vehicle and the blade(s) attached to it on top of a pretty unique control scheme for a driving game. That unique control scheme is probably the best way I personally think it could have been done for how you're going to be using your swordcar, so get used to it, I guess? Your main means of attack is going to be drifting your car to just narrowly miss the enemy and cut them with your sword... or by ramming them to stab them. There are also spells in the form of a shuriken, uzi, and like 1000 knives, but they require mana to use which you get back by slashing enemies. For the cons, the biggest thing is, again, the lack of content. It took me a little less than an hour to complete the released story mode and I'm admittedly "a casual" when it comes to these sorts of games. There also seems to be only 1 music track, making a pretty good track lose its feeling after about 5-10 minutes. If you're okay with dropping 5 USD on this to see where it goes, I would recommend giving it a try and seeing how you like it.
