Beautiful Escape: Dungeoneer Review

Rating:

I've never played a low res game that has gotten me this disturbed before. Dungeoneer is both a clever puzzle game and a psychological thriller paying homage to torture porn like Saw and Hostel that should be on everyone's must-play list for this summer.

Nimbus Sky Princess Review

Rating:

A breathtakingly beautiful shooter game that is also a blast to play. However, the gorgeous eye candy did take some liberties with many core shooter traditions that we have grown to love, making the experience of playing this title a bittersweet one.

Where We Remain Review

Rating:

Where We Remain is a queer adventure game that reminds me of the old Atari Adventure - Learning how to play is part of the game's charm. However, the adventure part ends once you learn the rules, and quickly degenerates into a score grubbing arcade title.

HeroCore Review

Rating:

HeroCore reminds you why you bother downloading and playing these bite-sized chunks of joy we call "indie" games. Sometimes the bite is bland and forgettable; other times, the bite is bitter; then there are times when the bite satisfies.

Mission Extreme Review

Rating:

Mission Extreme tends the bounds between platformer and retro shooter quite well. It is a simple game, but sometimes simple is enough.

DarkVerse (Demo) Review

Rating:

The only thing keeping this open-ended space shooter from 5 stars is the fact that is an incomplete DEMO. The complete game should be mind blowing.

Island Planet! Review

Rating:

Another in our series of Ludum Dare #17 reviews, Island Planet! is a grand idea that suffers from lack of polish, from lack of time.

Rating:

If you've ever wanted to explore the vastness of space and do it all in one go, without a heavy interface or game system to learn, Strange Adventures in Infinite Space might just be for you.

Artillery Isles Review

Rating:

Another Ludum Dare 17 entry with a nice, fast-paced twist on strategy games. Destroy your enemy's island bases while keeping your own together using resource management and tactical nukes.

Drone Review

Rating:

Drone is an interesting blend of shooter, tower defense and real-time strategy, all packed into an elegant little package. It allows you to shoot enemies, build things to shoot enemies and upgrade to shoot enemies better, what's not to love?
