Xeodrifter is the story of an interstellar drifter traveling the stars on a simple mission of exploration. We join our nomad as he embarks on the investigation of a small cluster of four planets in the omega sector, after a collision with a rogue asteroid damaged his warp core.
A scan of the neighboring planets revealed a number of energy signatures, which may provide the special material needed to replace the damaged warp core and get back to cruising through the cosmos. However, what began as a routine away-mission to fix his engine quickly spirals into a dangerous game of search, shoot, and survive.

Fun, little micro metroidvania. Good art style. Fun powers. Combat is a little stiff but otherwise pretty good.
Скучный кальник.
Painfully short, but a simple intro to metroidvanias for anyone wanting to get into them.

Игра работает только при разрешении 400х240, при любом другом разрешении видно только верхний левый угол. Разные настройки ни к чему не привели. Нашел тему в обсуждениях, что надо в свойствах файла пару настроек поменять -таже проблема. Возврат.
Xeodrifter fue un juego que conocí de pequeño en la demo de la Play Store de Ps4. Años después lo juegue y me lo piller en descuento en Steam. En mi opinión no vale su precio completo, hay juegos muchisimos mejores que este, más granders, y complejos a menor precio. El juego es simple, y calificarlo de un 9, 8 o incluso 7 me parece una barbaridad. Y compararlo con Metroid ya es un garrafal. Uno de los problemas que tiene es que no está muy actualizado, pues la velocidad del juego depende de la resolución de tu pantalla, así que cuidado, porque el juego no tiene ni limitador ni nada así. El juego es tan pequeño y simple que no llega a profundizar en algo muy innovador aunque puede llegar a tener algunas ideas que quizas son interesantes. Pero al final me deja un poco frio.
A nicely done bitesize metroidvania that you can complete in a couple of hours. It would be great to play a longer version to invest more time :D.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get this game to run properly. The game will outright crash if I try certain window sizes. When using any of the 'working' resolutions or full screen, the screen is flashing a lot and the game freezes in the intro cutscene. From what I've seen with other reviews, it may have something to do with my display's refresh rate (60Hz) but I don't think I'm able to lower that further? I'll update/delete this review if I become aware of a fix but right now I can't recommend paying $10+ for a indie game that can't run on modern systems.
Great little game. This is my 2nd time beating it. Great for a 1 sit down play through. If you like retro Metroid this is a must play! Definitely recommend.
ОЦЕНКА: 2,5 / 5 Пёсий кал натуральный. Без красителей и ароматизаторов. Омерзительные станлок и отбрасывание вызывают жгучее желание размазать авторов сего творения по поверхности любой из четырёх планет, представленных в игре. Отвратительное управление на клавиатуре с кучей задействованных в процессе клавиш утомляют запястья ещё на первых же забегах. Абсолютно одинаковые боссы с едва меняющимися паттернами и огромной кучей здоровья вгоняют даже не в уныние, а в депрессию. В хороших платформерах шансов у босса ровно столько же, сколько у игрока (не без исключений, конечно). И замечательный тому пример - Shovel Knight. Плохой пример - Hollow Knight. Даже в абсолютно нечестной местами трилогии Ninja Gaiden здоровья у босса было ровно столько же, сколько у игрока. Но если ты не способен сделать интересный босс-файт, просто увеличь его HP раз эдак в 20-30. А если ты не можешь сделать интересных рядовых противников, то просто напихай их побольше, сделай постоянный респавн и преврати парочку из них в толстозадых мамонтов. За гигантскую бабочку с хаотичным перемещением вообще отдельная благодарочка обоим отцам данного разработчика. На начальных этапах данная тварь отбила весь позитив по отношению к этому поделию. P.S. Пол-балла сверху накинул лишь за прикольную механику с перемещениями между локациями на переднем плане и на заднем. Но эта механика точно не стоит того, чтобы жевать пёсий кал.
Nice short Metroidvania. Only issue I had was I had the only crash on the last boss when I was trying for a hitless fight. It crashed and then decided to just get it done THe game was a little hard to setup since the game works with keyboard/mouse or an Xbox 360 controller... I tried so many different ones but mine were all Xbox One or other brands. So you have to make sure you are not in full screen i.e. alt + enter. You have to make sure to go and use Steam Input and then in the options in the game bar dropdown and select something like controller settings and then select the top option for Xbox 360 controller. I had to do this since for some reason if I had only the keyboard and mouse all the controls stated Xbox controls. Other than that I would recommend this game if you want a nice short Metrodvania.
