Vonbit

Got Blue Screened after playing a few minutes.

Its like Space Invaders but a bit more chunky. Its Free, worth a try if youre in to the retro side scrolling shooters.

Игра Vonbit увлекла меня с первых минут своей необычной концепцией и стильным ретро-дизайном. Это отличный пример того, как простая графика может выглядеть потрясающе, если грамотно использовать цветовую палитру и эффектную пикселизацию. Геймплей, на первый взгляд, кажется незамысловатым, но по мере прохождения уровней открываются новые механики и задачи, требующие тактического мышления и быстрой реакции. Музыкальное сопровождение идеально дополняет атмосферу игры, создавая ощущение погружения в старую аркаду. Уровень сложности постепенно нарастает, заставляя игрока адаптироваться и оттачивать свои навыки. Очень понравилась система достижений и возможность повторного прохождения уже пройденных этапов, чтобы улучшить свой результат. Единственное, что можно было бы улучшить - это разнообразие врагов и, возможно, добавить какой-нибудь сюжет, пусть даже минимальный, для большего вовлечения. В целом, Vonbit - это отличная игра для тех, кто любит ретро-игры и сложные, но увлекательные головоломки. Рекомендую!

"Vonbit" is an extremely badly made ripoff of Space Invaders that somehow has even worse graphics. Some odd trivia; game design itself is something that is covered by copyright, and previous case law and precedent shows these intellectual property rights can be legally enforced. I wonder if Taito will sue or send a DMCA takedown. I hope they do. What do you do in the game? It's Space Invaders but worse. This features really godawful pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded [i]despite[/i] the bad graphics, not because of them. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 3 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off. And I suspect Taito will be feeling even more ripped off when they find out about this.

Really fun, got great controls and really is a fun way for a quick game of something when I don't have enough time for something longer.
