Bloody Spell is a good attempt at Ninja Gaiden x Nioh, but sexy girls and dances doesn't save it from its jankiness. 3

Sharp presentation. Incredible soundtrack. Practically perfect gameplay. Waves my all time favorite Twin Stick Shooter. 0

Original Review Date: Jan 2, 2012 @ 10:20pmUpdated: Dec 18, 2013 @ 11:35amWaves is a bright and hectic twin stick shooter with many similarities to Super Stardust HD and Everyday Shooter (except with smoother controls) It is crafted to the point of a perfect arcade style game, where a player's failure or success is purely based on his or her skill and not cheap deaths. Easy to play for casual gamers, challenging enough for hardcore gamers. Multiple game modes to whet your appetite, though I pre...

A tough recommendation - A Map pack with high quality, super challenging content. 2

Master Levels for Doom II is hard to recommend to anybody but the biggest fans of the original DOOM games that have completed them fully.The Master Levels are a strange beast as far as game expansions go. Ultimate Doom and Doom II are full campaigns in their own right. Thy Flesh consumed for Ultimate Doom and No Rest for the Living feel like a new, solid, complete episode for their corresponding game. A campaign Master Levels is not. There is a reason why they are called Master Levels - having m...

A lot to offer, and a lot of confusion 0

(Note: This is my Steam review of the game. Steam review allows for a limited amount of characters, thus, I didn't have enough space to reflect on certain things like graphics, soundtrack, and performance and more opted to reflect my overall experience of the game. Thankfully, by the time I played it, I didn't have the same performance issues everybody else did and the Soundtrack is phenomenal.)Nier: Automata has something to say. Are you willing to go through a long, game to hear it and still k...

An excellent action Rogue-lite that is ultimately too hard for me. 0

Downwell is a dastardly hard platforming shmup rogue-lite.Instead of heading left-to-right shooting enemies in your way, you're tumbling down a seemingly endless well with platforms, enemies, hazards, and holes in the wall that contain weapons, gems, or shops with only the ability to run, jump, and multi-jump while shooting shots directly below you. Enemies, objects, and gem blocks drop gems that can be used purchase items and upgrades at stores and count to your overall score. Downwell communic...

I proposed a PC release, but some mod declined it)Forsaken Remastered is the definitive way to play the forgotten Acclaim classic in modern times.Here, Forsaken Remastered supports higher resolutions, a recreated HUD, anti-aliasing, new particle effects and other graphical effects, and support for more modern graphical APIs, making them work more easily with modern graphics cards.

Death Ray Manta SE - The deceptively brutal and manic successor to Robotron 0

Death Ray Manta is a flashy, twin stick shoot em up that plays alot like Robotron meets Waves. Your only controls are Move and shoot, and there is no Options menn or items, so you must play fullscreen (ALT + ENTER may work) and you can't change the volume. There's 32 Levels according to the store page, which often take less than 30 seconds or 90 at most. I found this to be surprisingly fun for it's simplicity, but you may be turned off by the visual noise, disregard for player options, punishing...
