It's all about big attitudes, big guns and big, enemies. The game takes a light-hearted look at the usually super serious genre of first-person shooters.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhile the game follows the classic first-person shooter genre, there is a third-person view which I ended up using most of the time due to the game mechanics. You assume the role of \"Serious\" Sam Stone who is, in Rome to find the holy grail. This plot point serves as the main storyline in the game. Along your journey, you encounter a rag-tag bunch of characters that will help you on your way and help to develop the story. Humour and fun are also central to Serious Sam and makes it stand out from other first-person shooters. The cast of characters helps drive plotline, slapstick comedy, jokes, and just general absurdity in the game. It does a good job incorporating this in the game and, it is constant.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_1\"$ \r\n\r\nHowever, the gameplay and mechanics are odd; the game has a clunky, heavy feel. Movement feels laboured, and aiming is also not smooth. It just doesn't feel that smooth; the feel a first-person should have. Enemies spawn randomly out of portals. I found it hard to figure out if they, are in front of me or behind. This is problematic in the first-person mode, so I switched to the third person; this does alleviate some of the issues of random enemies spawning and not knowing where they are.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_2\"$ \r\n\r\nIn the first level, I managed to activate the Christmas theme for the entire; level which consisted of Christmas themed songs as the background music. It was awful, and to compound things further, terrible sound effects of drones persisted through the level. The first level was frustrating and annoying. As I progressed through more levels, I did enjoy the new characters and enemies you encounter. The look and feel of the game did seem somewhat dated, though. In general, the game seems dated, though.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_3\"$ \r\n\r\nSerious Sam 4 is a not so serious first-person shooter that has lots of actions and some gorgeous monsters to kill. However, the gameplay is clunky and lacks smoothness. The sound effects and background music in certain levels were annoying. It's just a very mixed bag. I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected. It's mediocre and dated in general. The game lacks the level of polish and refinement I was expecting.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Serious Sam 4 Review","post_excerpt":"First-person shooter","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"serious-sam-4-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:26:55","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:26:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207383","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207336,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Dejima<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform<\/strong>:\u00a0PC<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Action<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Thunderful Publishing<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nFiregirl is a 2D platformer action roguelike game where you assume the role of a young firefighter. The firefighter has a pickaxe and a water hose to douse the immense fires. While putting out the fire, you will save the stranded people and cats too! As the game is a roguelike, the levels are procedurally generated using various environments as the backdrop to your heroic actions.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl1\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is 2D, but the mixture of the pixelated art style and the side-scrolling adventure gives a 3D feel to the game. Characters are bright and vibrant; the characters bob up and down too all the time. Your spawn point is the fire station. The fire station is where you purchase power-ups that are persisted throughout runs and allow you to tackle the bigger blazes. The roguelike elements come from the fact that you gain money and fans after each fire which help you upgrade your firefighter and their tools. At first, your water hose is weak, and you have little health, but after a few hours, this will increase. You gain cash for finishing missions and saving people; you will gain fans in the process who will also donate to aid you too. Cash can be used for power-ups; fans help you get donations.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl2\"$ \r\n\r\nI love the roguelike genre in general, and I love the novel approach that Firegirl takes. You hack through doors, jump over obstacles, and use your hose to put out fires and float around huge levels. I liked that you must be aware of enemies in platforms; that may be above or below you. It's a fast action-paced game that feels like an arcade game too. The sound, environment, voice-over, and story are all great. The game is polished.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl3\"$ \r\n\r\nI loved the pixelated art style of the game and was unsure how the roguelike elements of the game would work. However, after a few runs, it was clear that their roguelike elements made sense and made it more playable. It also increases the longevity of the game. The game does have a backstory, but I'm more about getting stuck in the game. It's an addictive hack and splash adventure. It melds a mix of platformer elements with lots of actions that reminds me of arcade games. It's tonnes of fun, plays fantastic and looks; awesome.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 8\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Firegirl: Hack 'n Splash Rescue Review","post_excerpt":"2D platformer","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"firegirl-hack-n-splash-rescue-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:32","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:32","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207336","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207314,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_content":"Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Elden Pixels<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatforms:<\/strong>\u00a0PC, PS4, PS5 (Reviewed), Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Elden Pixels, Clear River Games\r\n<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a modern update of the classic dungeon crawler games of the 90s. It's a mix of action, platformer, puzzles and tonnes of action too. It would fall into the Metroidvanias genre, a mixture of Metroid and Castlevania. You can expect a beautifully pixelated world that you must explore to uncover every secret and become the best version of yourself. It does have a classic retro feel too.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy1\"$ \r\n\r\nFirst impressions of the game were a bright and mystical world full of secrets. The main character has no idea where they are or what's going. The story starts from a point where you must figure out why Alwa is here and you; begin your journey. You must explore numerous dungeons to figure out your place in the world. As you move through each level, you find new characters, powerups, spells, and the story unravels. It's an adventure that isn't linear and will require you to traverse, teleport and find secrets in every nook and cranny. As new areas become unlocked, there is some retracing of your steps. I loved the interconnectivity of the world and how there are multiple ways to access different; areas in a deep rich map.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy2\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy gets a lot of things right from gameplay, visuals, sound, level design, and just that it's a fun game. Like any action-adventure game, there is, levelling and finding new powers along your journey. It does a great job of being flexible, and you can power up as you see fit. I enjoyed the variety between action, platform and puzzle mechanics in the game. I never got bored; the story, while nothing helps push forward your existence in the world. World and level design are superb the world; consists of a maze of interconnected dungeons with new creatures in new areas of the world. The retro pixelated style gives the game a real glossy and nostalgic feel. It's a superbly developed game that gets all the game mechanics just right and feels great to play.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy3\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy was partly funded by a Kickstarter too. The game is also a sequel to Alwa's Awakening.<\/span>\r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a Metroidvania game that does a great job in combining; a wonderful world and fantastic action with solid game mechanics. The game has tonnes of items and levels to uncover. It's a throwback to retro pixel games but updated for today with smoother gameplay and superb design too. It was a thoroughly fun and engrossing game I couldn't put down.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08.5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Alwa's Legacy Review","post_excerpt":"Modern update","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"alwas-legacy-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:53","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:53","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207314","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207190,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_date_gmt":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_content":"

<\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is the wonderfully bright platform\/action game from indie developers Sonzai games. It's inspired; by a host of '80s and '90s platform games.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll lands somewhere in between Marble Madness and Super Monkey Ball from a game mechanics perspective. You take the form of a ball that rolls through wonderfully rendered 3D worlds; each section has its theme from deserts to pyramids and a frozen world. I have to say the 3D worlds remind me of Super Mario 64, it's very reminiscent to me, but that's due to the 3D nature of the world full of bright colours and wonderful characters. The map reminds me of Super Mario 3, while the music and splash screens of the levels remind me of Sonic. The gameplay's a mix of Super Monkey Ball and Marble Madness. You guide your character through lush areas to finish the levels and face the boss. Pixel art helps to get across this picturesque world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Each section map area has multiple levels where you will have to use your wits and skills to navigate. Game mechanics are introduced; slowly as you progress through levels to allow for some mastery before the; introduction of the next game mechanic. Game mechanics are roll, rob, jump, and grab items. The levels consist of a mix of speed runs and accuracy where you must be precise as opposed to quick; this is layered with platform pieces too. It's a healthy mix of platformer, fast action puzzler, and frantic speed runs. The difficulty can be; changed to cater for how much of a challenge you want.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"ersamiroll2\"$ <\/p>\r\n
While the game is inspired; by a host of platformers and action games, there is plenty in the game that makes it unique. With the numerous game mechanics and the use of various environments, while reminiscent of a host of classic games. There are plenty of unique elements that make it stand on its own feet. You will get annoyed at the odd camera position where your; platform is obstructed by; your camera. It does have a camera issue, like most 3D platformers. The camera angles in 3D platformers have never been perfect and; this is no exception, but this is the only minor teething issue. The soundtrack, level design and sound effects all work well; it has that chaotic sense of fun.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll3\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is a bright and fun platformer action game that draws from the past but is, updated for modern gaming. It's chaotic fun with lots of ups and downs. The game has a learning curve that will require you to put in the time, which means it will be challenging but, the addition of varying difficulty means you can cater it; to your needs. I loved playing something; that isn't novel in modern games while being a homage to some classic games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The game runs at 60 FPS on the Switch. It's currently priced; at $14.99<\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's a prequel to Camp Sunshine which was a cult hit. The game is a mix of dungeon crawler and story-driven RPG. This review is for the PC Steam version which, is available to purchase now; the console versions will be released in 2022.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor1\"$ \r\n\r\nSunshine Manor is a real throwback to the classic 8-bit dungeon RPG. At first, the bright and wonderfully detailed game looks fantastic and does the 8-bit genre justice. The game does have a spooky and eerie underlying theme that is ubiquitous. It's a heavily story-driven narrative that gives context to the Sunshine Manor and why you are there. You have that classic gameplay as you shift through numerous levels of the mansion. The top-down view with fantastically rendered levels gives me a sense of nostalgia but is used by many indie games still. The dungeons are detailed, and each dungeon has its theme. You play as Ada, and you have to go through a series of dungeons with clues to find out what happened in this mansion. Every dungeon, every character and every clue helps to uncover the mystery of the manor.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor2\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game has a timeless retro quality that is easy to pick up and play but has enough to keep you entertained for the duration of the game. It's dark and lots of fun; I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is a fantastic 8-bit horror RPG that has all the great elements of a 2D game. The storyline is intriguing and adds wonderfully scary and horror themes during the game. Level design is superb and the transition between ordinary and horror levels changes the tone of the game. I loved the unexpected jump scares throughout. The dialogue is superb, and the mix of game mechanics from general dungeon crawling to boss battles adds many variations in gameplay. I love how dark and full of horror the game is. The game executes every element with fantastic detail. I also love the general retro feel of the game.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Sunshine Manor Review","post_excerpt":"8-bit retro horror ","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sunshine-manor-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:41:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:41:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207132","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206994,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-10-08 15:00:05","post_date_gmt":"2021-10-08 14:00:05","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Cathuria Games<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform: <\/strong>\u00a0PC, Early Access\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:\u00a0<\/strong>Raw Fury<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDream Cycle is a 3D adventure game from the creator of Tomb Raider, Toby Gard. The game centres around Morgan Carter and the journey through Dreamlands to get her essence back. Morgan's essence was stolen; by her great-great-grand-uncle, Randolph Carter, who is trying to enslave the Dreamlands for his purposes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle1\"$ \r\n\r\nDream Cycle can be played in several perspectives first-person, third-person or hybrid of both (dynamic camera angle chooses what it sees as fit). The option to switch modes is in the menu. Once you decide what view to take, you are on your merry way to explore this labyrinth of levels. Dream Cycle is a mix of a platformer, shooter and stealth game with some magic thrown in for good measure. For the player, this means you can adapt and play the game as suits you. You can go gung-ho or take a stealthy approach. I ended up playing a mix of both to get a feel of your weapons and game mechanics. I found the controls straightforward and intuitive. I liked the mixture of magic and guns. It was jarring at first but grew on me fairly quickly! As you progress through the levels, you gain more magic spells to help you battle the creatures at each dark corner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe mix of platform elements, fighting, and shooting constitute the core of the game. There are climbing elements, astral projection, and teleportation to help you navigate through the adventures. The adventures (levels) are short and impactful. You take the approach that best suits the game style you want to use. I loved the exploration and discovery of levels. Levels do have lots of weapons and power-ups to find. I enjoyed the choice of a bow, handgun or machine gun as your choice of ranged weapons, unexpected but fun.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle2\"$ \r\n\r\nIt is an early access game with the latest patch of 1.1.6 at the time of this preview. I didn't encounter any bugs or issues on my playthroughs. The world and the cel-shaded art style mixed with magic elements provides a wonderful; canvas for Morgan to explore. The game has tons of adventures and levels to navigate. I loved the mix of climbing and traversing terrain while using spells such as astral projection to navigate parts of the level to find the best way to scale huge castles. The environments and graphics are magical and intriguing. I did find the similar enemies a bit repetitive at times. I would have liked a bit more of a story-driven narrative to levels instead of just choosing them from the map. In totality, I enjoyed the game mechanics, the levels and the world. I am looking forward to seeing future updates in this game and what the game will ultimately become.<\/span>","post_title":"Dream Cycle Preview","post_excerpt":"3D adventure game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"dream-cycle-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:43:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:43:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206994","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206954,"post_author":"3","post_date":"2021-09-30 22:29:28","post_date_gmt":"2021-09-30 21:29:28","post_content":"Starring:<\/strong> Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux, Lahana Lynch, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear<\/span>\r\n\r\nDirector:<\/strong> Cary Joji Fukunaga<\/span>\r\n\r\nRelease date:<\/strong> 30th September 2021<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nA young girl witnesses her mothers murder by a masked assailant, and runs for her life.

Running at 2hrs 43mins, it\u2019s an epic and long old movie but you needn\u2019t worry about losing interest in the story at any point. Everything that happens happens for a reason and it all adds up at the end to an epic finale.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDefinitely go and see this on a big screen (IMAX if you feel like pushing the boat out) but just make sure you have a wee beforehand.

The lady cop, Valerie jumps into the middle of it but it\u2019s not long before she is sucker punched in the face by an unknown assailant.

Alongside the always rugged looking Frank Grillo, they make a fantastic pairing in this movie. Toby Huss is spectacularly creepy and scary as one of the guys who comes into the police station to add to the drama which is already unfolding and add his own unique stamp on proceedings. There\u2019s a lot of guessing as to some characters true motives, but it all adds to the story and its climax.<\/span>\r\n\r\nIf you love a good action movie with all the aforementioned elements, then this could very well be the next movie you see.

The game is a top-down action game in the mould of the classic GTA games. You fight, kill, rob cars and go on missions in this dark and gloomy world filled with gangs and enemies.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk1\"$ \r\n\r\nIf you have played the original GTA games, that will give a good sense of what you will get. The game's mechanics are 2D top-down action-based mayhem where you guide your player around the dark and dystopian city. You can collect new guns, powerups and missions as you navigate the city. You can hijack cars and do as you please! A decent storyline and good dialogue help to bring some colour to the world.<\/span>\r\n\r\nGlitchpunk allows the player to build relationships with other gangs\/factions that can be friendly or adversarial. It means you can be in a hostile world where you are enemy number one, not just with law enforcement.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk2\"$ \r\n\r\nI have to say I enjoyed the twin-stick shooter elements and walking around the world completing missions. However, it should be noted that it is an early access game, and it has some issues. The driving mechanics in the vehicles are clunky and annoying; to say the least, it needs a bit of tweaking. I encountered various issues with the frame rate with a whole host of different graphical settings that also made the game frustrating. Whilst doing missions, you can get a cop rating of between 1 - 5 that indicates your wanted level, I found that police just randomly being everywhere and that the two stars wanted level; that it didn't make a whole lot of sense. The save game feature isn't spelt out. If the developers were to do this, it would have made my first few attempts at the game less annoying. It turned into a rogue-like until I figured out where the safe house was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe combination of these issues does impact the game. It is a clever concept that has been well thought out but needs some bug fixes to reach its potential; I'm looking forward to the next update where Glitchpunk isn't as glitchy.<\/span>","post_title":"Glitchpunk Preview","post_excerpt":"Cyberpunk game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"glitchpunk-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:45:23","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:45:23","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206821","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":32},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};

Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Splashteam\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Platforms:<\/strong>\u00a0Previewed on Steam Coming to Switch, Playstation and Xbox<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Genre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0tinyBuild<\/span><\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
We got our hands on a preview build of Splashteam's second game Tinykin. Tinykin is a wonderful cartoon animated 3D adventure. It does pay homage to Pikmin for sure and does give me Toy Story vibes through the look and feel. The perspective is from a small character (the size of a small toy) in a human world. You start in the living room, which seems massive, and you encounter a whole cast of creatures on your journey. What hit me straight away was the stunning cartoony graphics that were bright but in a beautiful 3D world. I was more than pleasantly surprised; it was polished from start to finish.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
The preview does give you an entire level to discover the game mechanics and a feel for the game. You play as Milo, the explorer, who is in this amazing living room full of life and creatures. The game does have that mix of platform and puzzle all rolled into one. It's a joyful, bright, and wonderful experience. The game has tons of characters, and the cartoon art style gives a fantastic look and feel.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Milo has a supporting cast of Tinykins little creatures with special powers; in the preview, you encounter two types of Tinykins who can move items and blow things up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin4\"$ <\/p>\r\n
A mix of platform, strategy and using Tinykins constitute the gameplay. It's a very fun platform game with a lot of puzzles to solve in a beautifully rendered world. I played the game using an Xbox controller, and the controls are super intuitive. The game does give directed guidelines as you uncover a new mechanic. The game is super slick and a real joy to play.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin5\"$ <\/p>\r\n
I was impressed from the start with the wonderful look and feel. The game looks and feels polished. The game mechanics were intuitive, and the art style lends itself to a beautiful looking game. This one level was a great taster, but I'm looking forward to seeing what the full game holds and how much richer it will be.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's all about big attitudes, big guns and big, enemies. The game takes a light-hearted look at the usually super serious genre of first-person shooters.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhile the game follows the classic first-person shooter genre, there is a third-person view which I ended up using most of the time due to the game mechanics. You assume the role of \"Serious\" Sam Stone who is, in Rome to find the holy grail. This plot point serves as the main storyline in the game. Along your journey, you encounter a rag-tag bunch of characters that will help you on your way and help to develop the story. Humour and fun are also central to Serious Sam and makes it stand out from other first-person shooters. The cast of characters helps drive plotline, slapstick comedy, jokes, and just general absurdity in the game. It does a good job incorporating this in the game and, it is constant.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_1\"$ \r\n\r\nHowever, the gameplay and mechanics are odd; the game has a clunky, heavy feel. Movement feels laboured, and aiming is also not smooth. It just doesn't feel that smooth; the feel a first-person should have. Enemies spawn randomly out of portals. I found it hard to figure out if they, are in front of me or behind. This is problematic in the first-person mode, so I switched to the third person; this does alleviate some of the issues of random enemies spawning and not knowing where they are.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_2\"$ \r\n\r\nIn the first level, I managed to activate the Christmas theme for the entire; level which consisted of Christmas themed songs as the background music. It was awful, and to compound things further, terrible sound effects of drones persisted through the level. The first level was frustrating and annoying. As I progressed through more levels, I did enjoy the new characters and enemies you encounter. The look and feel of the game did seem somewhat dated, though. In general, the game seems dated, though.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_3\"$ \r\n\r\nSerious Sam 4 is a not so serious first-person shooter that has lots of actions and some gorgeous monsters to kill. However, the gameplay is clunky and lacks smoothness. The sound effects and background music in certain levels were annoying. It's just a very mixed bag. I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected. It's mediocre and dated in general. The game lacks the level of polish and refinement I was expecting.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Serious Sam 4 Review","post_excerpt":"First-person shooter","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"serious-sam-4-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:26:55","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:26:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207383","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207336,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Dejima<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform<\/strong>:\u00a0PC<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Action<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Thunderful Publishing<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nFiregirl is a 2D platformer action roguelike game where you assume the role of a young firefighter. The firefighter has a pickaxe and a water hose to douse the immense fires. While putting out the fire, you will save the stranded people and cats too! As the game is a roguelike, the levels are procedurally generated using various environments as the backdrop to your heroic actions.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl1\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is 2D, but the mixture of the pixelated art style and the side-scrolling adventure gives a 3D feel to the game. Characters are bright and vibrant; the characters bob up and down too all the time. Your spawn point is the fire station. The fire station is where you purchase power-ups that are persisted throughout runs and allow you to tackle the bigger blazes. The roguelike elements come from the fact that you gain money and fans after each fire which help you upgrade your firefighter and their tools. At first, your water hose is weak, and you have little health, but after a few hours, this will increase. You gain cash for finishing missions and saving people; you will gain fans in the process who will also donate to aid you too. Cash can be used for power-ups; fans help you get donations.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl2\"$ \r\n\r\nI love the roguelike genre in general, and I love the novel approach that Firegirl takes. You hack through doors, jump over obstacles, and use your hose to put out fires and float around huge levels. I liked that you must be aware of enemies in platforms; that may be above or below you. It's a fast action-paced game that feels like an arcade game too. The sound, environment, voice-over, and story are all great. The game is polished.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl3\"$ \r\n\r\nI loved the pixelated art style of the game and was unsure how the roguelike elements of the game would work. However, after a few runs, it was clear that their roguelike elements made sense and made it more playable. It also increases the longevity of the game. The game does have a backstory, but I'm more about getting stuck in the game. It's an addictive hack and splash adventure. It melds a mix of platformer elements with lots of actions that reminds me of arcade games. It's tonnes of fun, plays fantastic and looks; awesome.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 8\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Firegirl: Hack 'n Splash Rescue Review","post_excerpt":"2D platformer","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"firegirl-hack-n-splash-rescue-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:32","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:32","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207336","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207314,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_content":"Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Elden Pixels<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatforms:<\/strong>\u00a0PC, PS4, PS5 (Reviewed), Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Elden Pixels, Clear River Games\r\n<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a modern update of the classic dungeon crawler games of the 90s. It's a mix of action, platformer, puzzles and tonnes of action too. It would fall into the Metroidvanias genre, a mixture of Metroid and Castlevania. You can expect a beautifully pixelated world that you must explore to uncover every secret and become the best version of yourself. It does have a classic retro feel too.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy1\"$ \r\n\r\nFirst impressions of the game were a bright and mystical world full of secrets. The main character has no idea where they are or what's going. The story starts from a point where you must figure out why Alwa is here and you; begin your journey. You must explore numerous dungeons to figure out your place in the world. As you move through each level, you find new characters, powerups, spells, and the story unravels. It's an adventure that isn't linear and will require you to traverse, teleport and find secrets in every nook and cranny. As new areas become unlocked, there is some retracing of your steps. I loved the interconnectivity of the world and how there are multiple ways to access different; areas in a deep rich map.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy2\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy gets a lot of things right from gameplay, visuals, sound, level design, and just that it's a fun game. Like any action-adventure game, there is, levelling and finding new powers along your journey. It does a great job of being flexible, and you can power up as you see fit. I enjoyed the variety between action, platform and puzzle mechanics in the game. I never got bored; the story, while nothing helps push forward your existence in the world. World and level design are superb the world; consists of a maze of interconnected dungeons with new creatures in new areas of the world. The retro pixelated style gives the game a real glossy and nostalgic feel. It's a superbly developed game that gets all the game mechanics just right and feels great to play.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy3\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy was partly funded by a Kickstarter too. The game is also a sequel to Alwa's Awakening.<\/span>\r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a Metroidvania game that does a great job in combining; a wonderful world and fantastic action with solid game mechanics. The game has tonnes of items and levels to uncover. It's a throwback to retro pixel games but updated for today with smoother gameplay and superb design too. It was a thoroughly fun and engrossing game I couldn't put down.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08.5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Alwa's Legacy Review","post_excerpt":"Modern update","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"alwas-legacy-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:53","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:53","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207314","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207190,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_date_gmt":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_content":"

<\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is the wonderfully bright platform\/action game from indie developers Sonzai games. It's inspired; by a host of '80s and '90s platform games.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll lands somewhere in between Marble Madness and Super Monkey Ball from a game mechanics perspective. You take the form of a ball that rolls through wonderfully rendered 3D worlds; each section has its theme from deserts to pyramids and a frozen world. I have to say the 3D worlds remind me of Super Mario 64, it's very reminiscent to me, but that's due to the 3D nature of the world full of bright colours and wonderful characters. The map reminds me of Super Mario 3, while the music and splash screens of the levels remind me of Sonic. The gameplay's a mix of Super Monkey Ball and Marble Madness. You guide your character through lush areas to finish the levels and face the boss. Pixel art helps to get across this picturesque world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Each section map area has multiple levels where you will have to use your wits and skills to navigate. Game mechanics are introduced; slowly as you progress through levels to allow for some mastery before the; introduction of the next game mechanic. Game mechanics are roll, rob, jump, and grab items. The levels consist of a mix of speed runs and accuracy where you must be precise as opposed to quick; this is layered with platform pieces too. It's a healthy mix of platformer, fast action puzzler, and frantic speed runs. The difficulty can be; changed to cater for how much of a challenge you want.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"ersamiroll2\"$ <\/p>\r\n
While the game is inspired; by a host of platformers and action games, there is plenty in the game that makes it unique. With the numerous game mechanics and the use of various environments, while reminiscent of a host of classic games. There are plenty of unique elements that make it stand on its own feet. You will get annoyed at the odd camera position where your; platform is obstructed by; your camera. It does have a camera issue, like most 3D platformers. The camera angles in 3D platformers have never been perfect and; this is no exception, but this is the only minor teething issue. The soundtrack, level design and sound effects all work well; it has that chaotic sense of fun.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll3\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is a bright and fun platformer action game that draws from the past but is, updated for modern gaming. It's chaotic fun with lots of ups and downs. The game has a learning curve that will require you to put in the time, which means it will be challenging but, the addition of varying difficulty means you can cater it; to your needs. I loved playing something; that isn't novel in modern games while being a homage to some classic games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The game runs at 60 FPS on the Switch. It's currently priced; at $14.99<\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's a prequel to Camp Sunshine which was a cult hit. The game is a mix of dungeon crawler and story-driven RPG. This review is for the PC Steam version which, is available to purchase now; the console versions will be released in 2022.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor1\"$ \r\n\r\nSunshine Manor is a real throwback to the classic 8-bit dungeon RPG. At first, the bright and wonderfully detailed game looks fantastic and does the 8-bit genre justice. The game does have a spooky and eerie underlying theme that is ubiquitous. It's a heavily story-driven narrative that gives context to the Sunshine Manor and why you are there. You have that classic gameplay as you shift through numerous levels of the mansion. The top-down view with fantastically rendered levels gives me a sense of nostalgia but is used by many indie games still. The dungeons are detailed, and each dungeon has its theme. You play as Ada, and you have to go through a series of dungeons with clues to find out what happened in this mansion. Every dungeon, every character and every clue helps to uncover the mystery of the manor.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor2\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game has a timeless retro quality that is easy to pick up and play but has enough to keep you entertained for the duration of the game. It's dark and lots of fun; I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is a fantastic 8-bit horror RPG that has all the great elements of a 2D game. The storyline is intriguing and adds wonderfully scary and horror themes during the game. Level design is superb and the transition between ordinary and horror levels changes the tone of the game. I loved the unexpected jump scares throughout. The dialogue is superb, and the mix of game mechanics from general dungeon crawling to boss battles adds many variations in gameplay. I love how dark and full of horror the game is. The game executes every element with fantastic detail. I also love the general retro feel of the game.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Sunshine Manor Review","post_excerpt":"8-bit retro horror ","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sunshine-manor-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:41:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:41:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207132","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206994,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-10-08 15:00:05","post_date_gmt":"2021-10-08 14:00:05","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Cathuria Games<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform: <\/strong>\u00a0PC, Early Access\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:\u00a0<\/strong>Raw Fury<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDream Cycle is a 3D adventure game from the creator of Tomb Raider, Toby Gard. The game centres around Morgan Carter and the journey through Dreamlands to get her essence back. Morgan's essence was stolen; by her great-great-grand-uncle, Randolph Carter, who is trying to enslave the Dreamlands for his purposes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle1\"$ \r\n\r\nDream Cycle can be played in several perspectives first-person, third-person or hybrid of both (dynamic camera angle chooses what it sees as fit). The option to switch modes is in the menu. Once you decide what view to take, you are on your merry way to explore this labyrinth of levels. Dream Cycle is a mix of a platformer, shooter and stealth game with some magic thrown in for good measure. For the player, this means you can adapt and play the game as suits you. You can go gung-ho or take a stealthy approach. I ended up playing a mix of both to get a feel of your weapons and game mechanics. I found the controls straightforward and intuitive. I liked the mixture of magic and guns. It was jarring at first but grew on me fairly quickly! As you progress through the levels, you gain more magic spells to help you battle the creatures at each dark corner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe mix of platform elements, fighting, and shooting constitute the core of the game. There are climbing elements, astral projection, and teleportation to help you navigate through the adventures. The adventures (levels) are short and impactful. You take the approach that best suits the game style you want to use. I loved the exploration and discovery of levels. Levels do have lots of weapons and power-ups to find. I enjoyed the choice of a bow, handgun or machine gun as your choice of ranged weapons, unexpected but fun.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle2\"$ \r\n\r\nIt is an early access game with the latest patch of 1.1.6 at the time of this preview. I didn't encounter any bugs or issues on my playthroughs. The world and the cel-shaded art style mixed with magic elements provides a wonderful; canvas for Morgan to explore. The game has tons of adventures and levels to navigate. I loved the mix of climbing and traversing terrain while using spells such as astral projection to navigate parts of the level to find the best way to scale huge castles. The environments and graphics are magical and intriguing. I did find the similar enemies a bit repetitive at times. I would have liked a bit more of a story-driven narrative to levels instead of just choosing them from the map. In totality, I enjoyed the game mechanics, the levels and the world. I am looking forward to seeing future updates in this game and what the game will ultimately become.<\/span>","post_title":"Dream Cycle Preview","post_excerpt":"3D adventure game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"dream-cycle-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:43:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:43:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206994","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206954,"post_author":"3","post_date":"2021-09-30 22:29:28","post_date_gmt":"2021-09-30 21:29:28","post_content":"Starring:<\/strong> Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux, Lahana Lynch, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear<\/span>\r\n\r\nDirector:<\/strong> Cary Joji Fukunaga<\/span>\r\n\r\nRelease date:<\/strong> 30th September 2021<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nA young girl witnesses her mothers murder by a masked assailant, and runs for her life. Desperate to escape, she runs across a frozen lake but unfortunately as she runs she sees the murderer following her and then there\u2019s a crack and she falls through the ice. One minute later the masked man is there and shooting at her through the ice.. a hand reaches down and pulls her from the frozen water..<\/span>\r\n\r\nJames is now retired from his 007 life and he and Madeleine Swann are very happy together, enjoying a trip to beautiful Italy.

They manage to escape by the skin of their teeth but James now believes that Madeleine has betrayed him. He puts her on a train and says she will never see him again...<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"notimetodie1\"$ \r\n\r\nFive years pass and a top secret research lab in central London is raided by masked assassins. Everyone is killed apart from an MI6 scientist called Obrechev, who is dragged away into the night, along with his research project. Unbeknownst to everyone, the project is called \u2018Heracles\u2019 and it is a deadly bioweapon that could kill millions of people, using just their dna.<\/span>\r\n\r\nBond is now living an easy life in Jamaica and it\u2019s not long before he is approached by a new 00 and also by an old friend.

Originally just called Bond 25, \u2018No Time To Die\u2019 is pretty much everything we all wanted it to be. Running at 2hrs 43mins, it\u2019s an epic and long old movie but you needn\u2019t worry about losing interest in the story at any point. Everything that happens happens for a reason and it all adds up at the end to an epic finale.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDefinitely go and see this on a big screen (IMAX if you feel like pushing the boat out) but just make sure you have a wee beforehand.

The game is a top-down action game in the mould of the classic GTA games. You fight, kill, rob cars and go on missions in this dark and gloomy world filled with gangs and enemies.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk1\"$ \r\n\r\nIf you have played the original GTA games, that will give a good sense of what you will get. The game's mechanics are 2D top-down action-based mayhem where you guide your player around the dark and dystopian city. You can collect new guns, powerups and missions as you navigate the city. You can hijack cars and do as you please! A decent storyline and good dialogue help to bring some colour to the world.<\/span>\r\n\r\nGlitchpunk allows the player to build relationships with other gangs\/factions that can be friendly or adversarial. It means you can be in a hostile world where you are enemy number one, not just with law enforcement.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk2\"$ \r\n\r\nI have to say I enjoyed the twin-stick shooter elements and walking around the world completing missions. However, it should be noted that it is an early access game, and it has some issues. The driving mechanics in the vehicles are clunky and annoying; to say the least, it needs a bit of tweaking. I encountered various issues with the frame rate with a whole host of different graphical settings that also made the game frustrating. Whilst doing missions, you can get a cop rating of between 1 - 5 that indicates your wanted level, I found that police just randomly being everywhere and that the two stars wanted level; that it didn't make a whole lot of sense. The save game feature isn't spelt out. If the developers were to do this, it would have made my first few attempts at the game less annoying. It turned into a rogue-like until I figured out where the safe house was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe combination of these issues does impact the game. It is a clever concept that has been well thought out but needs some bug fixes to reach its potential; I'm looking forward to the next update where Glitchpunk isn't as glitchy.<\/span>","post_title":"Glitchpunk Preview","post_excerpt":"Cyberpunk game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"glitchpunk-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:45:23","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:45:23","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206821","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":32},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};

Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Splashteam\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Platforms:<\/strong>\u00a0Previewed on Steam Coming to Switch, Playstation and Xbox<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Genre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0tinyBuild<\/span><\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
We got our hands on a preview build of Splashteam's second game Tinykin. Tinykin is a wonderful cartoon animated 3D adventure. It does pay homage to Pikmin for sure and does give me Toy Story vibes through the look and feel. The perspective is from a small character (the size of a small toy) in a human world. You start in the living room, which seems massive, and you encounter a whole cast of creatures on your journey. What hit me straight away was the stunning cartoony graphics that were bright but in a beautiful 3D world. I was more than pleasantly surprised; it was polished from start to finish.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
The preview does give you an entire level to discover the game mechanics and a feel for the game. You play as Milo, the explorer, who is in this amazing living room full of life and creatures. The game does have that mix of platform and puzzle all rolled into one. It's a joyful, bright, and wonderful experience. The game has tons of characters, and the cartoon art style gives a fantastic look and feel.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Milo has a supporting cast of Tinykins little creatures with special powers; in the preview, you encounter two types of Tinykins who can move items and blow things up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin4\"$ <\/p>\r\n
A mix of platform, strategy and using Tinykins constitute the gameplay. It's a very fun platform game with a lot of puzzles to solve in a beautifully rendered world. I played the game using an Xbox controller, and the controls are super intuitive. The game does give directed guidelines as you uncover a new mechanic. The game is super slick and a real joy to play.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin5\"$ <\/p>\r\n
I was impressed from the start with the wonderful look and feel. The game looks and feels polished. The game mechanics were intuitive, and the art style lends itself to a beautiful looking game. This one level was a great taster, but I'm looking forward to seeing what the full game holds and how much richer it will be.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's all about big attitudes, big guns and big, enemies. The game takes a light-hearted look at the usually super serious genre of first-person shooters.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhile the game follows the classic first-person shooter genre, there is a third-person view which I ended up using most of the time due to the game mechanics. You assume the role of \"Serious\" Sam Stone who is, in Rome to find the holy grail. This plot point serves as the main storyline in the game. Along your journey, you encounter a rag-tag bunch of characters that will help you on your way and help to develop the story. Humour and fun are also central to Serious Sam and makes it stand out from other first-person shooters. The cast of characters helps drive plotline, slapstick comedy, jokes, and just general absurdity in the game. It does a good job incorporating this in the game and, it is constant.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_1\"$ \r\n\r\nHowever, the gameplay and mechanics are odd; the game has a clunky, heavy feel. Movement feels laboured, and aiming is also not smooth. It just doesn't feel that smooth; the feel a first-person should have. Enemies spawn randomly out of portals. I found it hard to figure out if they, are in front of me or behind. This is problematic in the first-person mode, so I switched to the third person; this does alleviate some of the issues of random enemies spawning and not knowing where they are.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_2\"$ \r\n\r\nIn the first level, I managed to activate the Christmas theme for the entire; level which consisted of Christmas themed songs as the background music. It was awful, and to compound things further, terrible sound effects of drones persisted through the level. The first level was frustrating and annoying. As I progressed through more levels, I did enjoy the new characters and enemies you encounter. The look and feel of the game did seem somewhat dated, though. In general, the game seems dated, though.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_3\"$ \r\n\r\nSerious Sam 4 is a not so serious first-person shooter that has lots of actions and some gorgeous monsters to kill. However, the gameplay is clunky and lacks smoothness. The sound effects and background music in certain levels were annoying. It's just a very mixed bag. I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected. It's mediocre and dated in general. The game lacks the level of polish and refinement I was expecting.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Serious Sam 4 Review","post_excerpt":"First-person shooter","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"serious-sam-4-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:26:55","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:26:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207383","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207336,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Dejima<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform<\/strong>:\u00a0PC<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Action<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Thunderful Publishing<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nFiregirl is a 2D platformer action roguelike game where you assume the role of a young firefighter. The firefighter has a pickaxe and a water hose to douse the immense fires. While putting out the fire, you will save the stranded people and cats too! As the game is a roguelike, the levels are procedurally generated using various environments as the backdrop to your heroic actions.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl1\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is 2D, but the mixture of the pixelated art style and the side-scrolling adventure gives a 3D feel to the game. Characters are bright and vibrant; the characters bob up and down too all the time. Your spawn point is the fire station. The fire station is where you purchase power-ups that are persisted throughout runs and allow you to tackle the bigger blazes. The roguelike elements come from the fact that you gain money and fans after each fire which help you upgrade your firefighter and their tools. At first, your water hose is weak, and you have little health, but after a few hours, this will increase. You gain cash for finishing missions and saving people; you will gain fans in the process who will also donate to aid you too. Cash can be used for power-ups; fans help you get donations.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl2\"$ \r\n\r\nI love the roguelike genre in general, and I love the novel approach that Firegirl takes. You hack through doors, jump over obstacles, and use your hose to put out fires and float around huge levels. I liked that you must be aware of enemies in platforms; that may be above or below you. It's a fast action-paced game that feels like an arcade game too. The sound, environment, voice-over, and story are all great. The game is polished.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl3\"$ \r\n\r\nI loved the pixelated art style of the game and was unsure how the roguelike elements of the game would work. However, after a few runs, it was clear that their roguelike elements made sense and made it more playable. It also increases the longevity of the game. The game does have a backstory, but I'm more about getting stuck in the game. It's an addictive hack and splash adventure. It melds a mix of platformer elements with lots of actions that reminds me of arcade games. It's tonnes of fun, plays fantastic and looks; awesome.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 8\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Firegirl: Hack 'n Splash Rescue Review","post_excerpt":"2D platformer","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"firegirl-hack-n-splash-rescue-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:32","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:32","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207336","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207314,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_content":"Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Elden Pixels<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatforms:<\/strong>\u00a0PC, PS4, PS5 (Reviewed), Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Elden Pixels, Clear River Games\r\n<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a modern update of the classic dungeon crawler games of the 90s. It's a mix of action, platformer, puzzles and tonnes of action too. It would fall into the Metroidvanias genre, a mixture of Metroid and Castlevania. You can expect a beautifully pixelated world that you must explore to uncover every secret and become the best version of yourself. It does have a classic retro feel too.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy1\"$ \r\n\r\nFirst impressions of the game were a bright and mystical world full of secrets. The main character has no idea where they are or what's going. The story starts from a point where you must figure out why Alwa is here and you; begin your journey. You must explore numerous dungeons to figure out your place in the world. As you move through each level, you find new characters, powerups, spells, and the story unravels. It's an adventure that isn't linear and will require you to traverse, teleport and find secrets in every nook and cranny. As new areas become unlocked, there is some retracing of your steps. I loved the interconnectivity of the world and how there are multiple ways to access different; areas in a deep rich map.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy2\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy gets a lot of things right from gameplay, visuals, sound, level design, and just that it's a fun game. Like any action-adventure game, there is, levelling and finding new powers along your journey. It does a great job of being flexible, and you can power up as you see fit. I enjoyed the variety between action, platform and puzzle mechanics in the game. I never got bored; the story, while nothing helps push forward your existence in the world. World and level design are superb the world; consists of a maze of interconnected dungeons with new creatures in new areas of the world. The retro pixelated style gives the game a real glossy and nostalgic feel. It's a superbly developed game that gets all the game mechanics just right and feels great to play.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy3\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy was partly funded by a Kickstarter too. The game is also a sequel to Alwa's Awakening.<\/span>\r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a Metroidvania game that does a great job in combining; a wonderful world and fantastic action with solid game mechanics. The game has tonnes of items and levels to uncover. It's a throwback to retro pixel games but updated for today with smoother gameplay and superb design too. It was a thoroughly fun and engrossing game I couldn't put down.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08.5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Alwa's Legacy Review","post_excerpt":"Modern update","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"alwas-legacy-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:53","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:53","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207314","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207190,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_date_gmt":"2021-11-15 16:13:58","post_content":"

<\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is the wonderfully bright platform\/action game from indie developers Sonzai games. It's inspired; by a host of '80s and '90s platform games.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll lands somewhere in between Marble Madness and Super Monkey Ball from a game mechanics perspective. You take the form of a ball that rolls through wonderfully rendered 3D worlds; each section has its theme from deserts to pyramids and a frozen world. I have to say the 3D worlds remind me of Super Mario 64, it's very reminiscent to me, but that's due to the 3D nature of the world full of bright colours and wonderful characters. The map reminds me of Super Mario 3, while the music and splash screens of the levels remind me of Sonic. The gameplay's a mix of Super Monkey Ball and Marble Madness. You guide your character through lush areas to finish the levels and face the boss. Pixel art helps to get across this picturesque world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Each section map area has multiple levels where you will have to use your wits and skills to navigate. Game mechanics are introduced; slowly as you progress through levels to allow for some mastery before the; introduction of the next game mechanic. Game mechanics are roll, rob, jump, and grab items. The levels consist of a mix of speed runs and accuracy where you must be precise as opposed to quick; this is layered with platform pieces too. It's a healthy mix of platformer, fast action puzzler, and frantic speed runs. The difficulty can be; changed to cater for how much of a challenge you want.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"ersamiroll2\"$ <\/p>\r\n
While the game is inspired; by a host of platformers and action games, there is plenty in the game that makes it unique. With the numerous game mechanics and the use of various environments, while reminiscent of a host of classic games. There are plenty of unique elements that make it stand on its own feet. You will get annoyed at the odd camera position where your; platform is obstructed by; your camera. It does have a camera issue, like most 3D platformers. The camera angles in 3D platformers have never been perfect and; this is no exception, but this is the only minor teething issue. The soundtrack, level design and sound effects all work well; it has that chaotic sense of fun.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll3\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is a bright and fun platformer action game that draws from the past but is, updated for modern gaming. It's chaotic fun with lots of ups and downs. The game has a learning curve that will require you to put in the time, which means it will be challenging but, the addition of varying difficulty means you can cater it; to your needs.

It's a prequel to Camp Sunshine which was a cult hit. The game is a mix of dungeon crawler and story-driven RPG. This review is for the PC Steam version which, is available to purchase now; the console versions will be released in 2022.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor1\"$ \r\n\r\nSunshine Manor is a real throwback to the classic 8-bit dungeon RPG. At first, the bright and wonderfully detailed game looks fantastic and does the 8-bit genre justice. The game does have a spooky and eerie underlying theme that is ubiquitous. It's a heavily story-driven narrative that gives context to the Sunshine Manor and why you are there. You have that classic gameplay as you shift through numerous levels of the mansion. The top-down view with fantastically rendered levels gives me a sense of nostalgia but is used by many indie games still. The dungeons are detailed, and each dungeon has its theme. You play as Ada, and you have to go through a series of dungeons with clues to find out what happened in this mansion. Every dungeon, every character and every clue helps to uncover the mystery of the manor.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor2\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game has a timeless retro quality that is easy to pick up and play but has enough to keep you entertained for the duration of the game. It's dark and lots of fun; I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is a fantastic 8-bit horror RPG that has all the great elements of a 2D game. The storyline is intriguing and adds wonderfully scary and horror themes during the game. Level design is superb and the transition between ordinary and horror levels changes the tone of the game. I loved the unexpected jump scares throughout. The dialogue is superb, and the mix of game mechanics from general dungeon crawling to boss battles adds many variations in gameplay. I love how dark and full of horror the game is. The game executes every element with fantastic detail. I also love the general retro feel of the game.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Sunshine Manor Review","post_excerpt":"8-bit retro horror ","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sunshine-manor-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:41:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:41:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207132","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206994,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-10-08 15:00:05","post_date_gmt":"2021-10-08 14:00:05","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Cathuria Games<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform: <\/strong>\u00a0PC, Early Access\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:\u00a0<\/strong>Raw Fury<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDream Cycle is a 3D adventure game from the creator of Tomb Raider, Toby Gard. The game centres around Morgan Carter and the journey through Dreamlands to get her essence back. Morgan's essence was stolen; by her great-great-grand-uncle, Randolph Carter, who is trying to enslave the Dreamlands for his purposes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle1\"$ \r\n\r\nDream Cycle can be played in several perspectives first-person, third-person or hybrid of both (dynamic camera angle chooses what it sees as fit). The option to switch modes is in the menu. Once you decide what view to take, you are on your merry way to explore this labyrinth of levels. Dream Cycle is a mix of a platformer, shooter and stealth game with some magic thrown in for good measure. For the player, this means you can adapt and play the game as suits you. You can go gung-ho or take a stealthy approach. I ended up playing a mix of both to get a feel of your weapons and game mechanics. I found the controls straightforward and intuitive. I liked the mixture of magic and guns. It was jarring at first but grew on me fairly quickly! As you progress through the levels, you gain more magic spells to help you battle the creatures at each dark corner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe mix of platform elements, fighting, and shooting constitute the core of the game. There are climbing elements, astral projection, and teleportation to help you navigate through the adventures. The adventures (levels) are short and impactful. You take the approach that best suits the game style you want to use. I loved the exploration and discovery of levels. Levels do have lots of weapons and power-ups to find. I enjoyed the choice of a bow, handgun or machine gun as your choice of ranged weapons, unexpected but fun.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle2\"$ \r\n\r\nIt is an early access game with the latest patch of 1.1.6 at the time of this preview. I didn't encounter any bugs or issues on my playthroughs. The world and the cel-shaded art style mixed with magic elements provides a wonderful; canvas for Morgan to explore. The game has tons of adventures and levels to navigate. I loved the mix of climbing and traversing terrain while using spells such as astral projection to navigate parts of the level to find the best way to scale huge castles. The environments and graphics are magical and intriguing. I did find the similar enemies a bit repetitive at times. I would have liked a bit more of a story-driven narrative to levels instead of just choosing them from the map. In totality, I enjoyed the game mechanics, the levels and the world. I am looking forward to seeing future updates in this game and what the game will ultimately become.<\/span>","post_title":"Dream Cycle Preview","post_excerpt":"3D adventure game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"dream-cycle-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:43:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:43:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206994","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206954,"post_author":"3","post_date":"2021-09-30 22:29:28","post_date_gmt":"2021-09-30 21:29:28","post_content":"Starring:<\/strong> Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux, Lahana Lynch, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear<\/span>\r\n\r\nDirector:<\/strong> Cary Joji Fukunaga<\/span>\r\n\r\nRelease date:<\/strong> 30th September 2021<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nA young girl witnesses her mothers murder by a masked assailant, and runs for her life.

Originally just called Bond 25, \u2018No Time To Die\u2019 is pretty much everything we all wanted it to be. Running at 2hrs 43mins, it\u2019s an epic and long old movie but you needn\u2019t worry about losing interest in the story at any point. Everything that happens happens for a reason and it all adds up at the end to an epic finale.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDefinitely go and see this on a big screen (IMAX if you feel like pushing the boat out) but just make sure you have a wee beforehand.

From the very start you know that you\u2019re going to be watching a really entertaining and fun film.

Alongside the always rugged looking Frank Grillo, they make a fantastic pairing in this movie. Toby Huss is spectacularly creepy and scary as one of the guys who comes into the police station to add to the drama which is already unfolding and add his own unique stamp on proceedings. There\u2019s a lot of guessing as to some characters true motives, but it all adds to the story and its climax.<\/span>\r\n\r\nIf you love a good action movie with all the aforementioned elements, then this could very well be the next movie you see.

The game is a top-down action game in the mould of the classic GTA games. You fight, kill, rob cars and go on missions in this dark and gloomy world filled with gangs and enemies.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk1\"$ \r\n\r\nIf you have played the original GTA games, that will give a good sense of what you will get. The game's mechanics are 2D top-down action-based mayhem where you guide your player around the dark and dystopian city. You can collect new guns, powerups and missions as you navigate the city. You can hijack cars and do as you please! A decent storyline and good dialogue help to bring some colour to the world.<\/span>\r\n\r\nGlitchpunk allows the player to build relationships with other gangs\/factions that can be friendly or adversarial. It means you can be in a hostile world where you are enemy number one, not just with law enforcement.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk2\"$ \r\n\r\nI have to say I enjoyed the twin-stick shooter elements and walking around the world completing missions. However, it should be noted that it is an early access game, and it has some issues. The driving mechanics in the vehicles are clunky and annoying; to say the least, it needs a bit of tweaking. I encountered various issues with the frame rate with a whole host of different graphical settings that also made the game frustrating. Whilst doing missions, you can get a cop rating of between 1 - 5 that indicates your wanted level, I found that police just randomly being everywhere and that the two stars wanted level; that it didn't make a whole lot of sense. The save game feature isn't spelt out. If the developers were to do this, it would have made my first few attempts at the game less annoying. It turned into a rogue-like until I figured out where the safe house was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe combination of these issues does impact the game. It is a clever concept that has been well thought out but needs some bug fixes to reach its potential; I'm looking forward to the next update where Glitchpunk isn't as glitchy.<\/span>","post_title":"Glitchpunk Preview","post_excerpt":"Cyberpunk game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"glitchpunk-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:45:23","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:45:23","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206821","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":32},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};

Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Splashteam\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Platforms:<\/strong>\u00a0Previewed on Steam Coming to Switch, Playstation and Xbox<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n
We got our hands on a preview build of Splashteam's second game Tinykin. Tinykin is a wonderful cartoon animated 3D adventure. It does pay homage to Pikmin for sure and does give me Toy Story vibes through the look and feel. The perspective is from a small character (the size of a small toy) in a human world. You start in the living room, which seems massive, and you encounter a whole cast of creatures on your journey. What hit me straight away was the stunning cartoony graphics that were bright but in a beautiful 3D world. I was more than pleasantly surprised; it was polished from start to finish.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
The preview does give you an entire level to discover the game mechanics and a feel for the game. You play as Milo, the explorer, who is in this amazing living room full of life and creatures. The game does have that mix of platform and puzzle all rolled into one. It's a joyful, bright, and wonderful experience. The game has tons of characters, and the cartoon art style gives a fantastic look and feel.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Milo has a supporting cast of Tinykins little creatures with special powers; in the preview, you encounter two types of Tinykins who can move items and blow things up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin4\"$ <\/p>\r\n
A mix of platform, strategy and using Tinykins constitute the gameplay. It's a very fun platform game with a lot of puzzles to solve in a beautifully rendered world. I played the game using an Xbox controller, and the controls are super intuitive. The game does give directed guidelines as you uncover a new mechanic. The game is super slick and a real joy to play.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"tinykin5\"$ <\/p>\r\n
I was impressed from the start with the wonderful look and feel. The game looks and feels polished. The game mechanics were intuitive, and the art style lends itself to a beautiful looking game. This one level was a great taster, but I'm looking forward to seeing what the full game holds and how much richer it will be.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's all about big attitudes, big guns and big, enemies. The game takes a light-hearted look at the usually super serious genre of first-person shooters.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhile the game follows the classic first-person shooter genre, there is a third-person view which I ended up using most of the time due to the game mechanics. You assume the role of \"Serious\" Sam Stone who is, in Rome to find the holy grail. This plot point serves as the main storyline in the game. Along your journey, you encounter a rag-tag bunch of characters that will help you on your way and help to develop the story. Humour and fun are also central to Serious Sam and makes it stand out from other first-person shooters. The cast of characters helps drive plotline, slapstick comedy, jokes, and just general absurdity in the game. It does a good job incorporating this in the game and, it is constant.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_1\"$ \r\n\r\nHowever, the gameplay and mechanics are odd; the game has a clunky, heavy feel. Movement feels laboured, and aiming is also not smooth. It just doesn't feel that smooth; the feel a first-person should have. Enemies spawn randomly out of portals. I found it hard to figure out if they, are in front of me or behind. This is problematic in the first-person mode, so I switched to the third person; this does alleviate some of the issues of random enemies spawning and not knowing where they are.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_2\"$ \r\n\r\nIn the first level, I managed to activate the Christmas theme for the entire; level which consisted of Christmas themed songs as the background music. It was awful, and to compound things further, terrible sound effects of drones persisted through the level. The first level was frustrating and annoying. As I progressed through more levels, I did enjoy the new characters and enemies you encounter. The look and feel of the game did seem somewhat dated, though. In general, the game seems dated, though.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"serioussam4_3\"$ \r\n\r\nSerious Sam 4 is a not so serious first-person shooter that has lots of actions and some gorgeous monsters to kill. However, the gameplay is clunky and lacks smoothness. The sound effects and background music in certain levels were annoying. It's just a very mixed bag. I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected. It's mediocre and dated in general. The game lacks the level of polish and refinement I was expecting.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Serious Sam 4 Review","post_excerpt":"First-person shooter","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"serious-sam-4-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:26:55","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:26:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207383","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207336,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-17 14:32:07","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Dejima<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform<\/strong>:\u00a0PC<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Action<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Thunderful Publishing<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nFiregirl is a 2D platformer action roguelike game where you assume the role of a young firefighter. The firefighter has a pickaxe and a water hose to douse the immense fires. While putting out the fire, you will save the stranded people and cats too! As the game is a roguelike, the levels are procedurally generated using various environments as the backdrop to your heroic actions.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl1\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is 2D, but the mixture of the pixelated art style and the side-scrolling adventure gives a 3D feel to the game. Characters are bright and vibrant; the characters bob up and down too all the time. Your spawn point is the fire station. The fire station is where you purchase power-ups that are persisted throughout runs and allow you to tackle the bigger blazes. The roguelike elements come from the fact that you gain money and fans after each fire which help you upgrade your firefighter and their tools. At first, your water hose is weak, and you have little health, but after a few hours, this will increase. You gain cash for finishing missions and saving people; you will gain fans in the process who will also donate to aid you too. Cash can be used for power-ups; fans help you get donations.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl2\"$ \r\n\r\nI love the roguelike genre in general, and I love the novel approach that Firegirl takes. You hack through doors, jump over obstacles, and use your hose to put out fires and float around huge levels. I liked that you must be aware of enemies in platforms; that may be above or below you. It's a fast action-paced game that feels like an arcade game too. The sound, environment, voice-over, and story are all great. The game is polished.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"firegirl3\"$ \r\n\r\nI loved the pixelated art style of the game and was unsure how the roguelike elements of the game would work. However, after a few runs, it was clear that their roguelike elements made sense and made it more playable. It also increases the longevity of the game. The game does have a backstory, but I'm more about getting stuck in the game. It's an addictive hack and splash adventure. It melds a mix of platformer elements with lots of actions that reminds me of arcade games. It's tonnes of fun, plays fantastic and looks; awesome.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 8\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Firegirl: Hack 'n Splash Rescue Review","post_excerpt":"2D platformer","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"firegirl-hack-n-splash-rescue-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:29:32","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:29:32","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207336","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":207314,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_date_gmt":"2021-12-14 15:08:12","post_content":"Developer:<\/strong>\u00a0Elden Pixels<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatforms:<\/strong>\u00a0PC, PS4, PS5 (Reviewed), Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre:<\/strong>\u00a0Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:<\/strong> Elden Pixels, Clear River Games\r\n<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy is a modern update of the classic dungeon crawler games of the 90s. It's a mix of action, platformer, puzzles and tonnes of action too. It would fall into the Metroidvanias genre, a mixture of Metroid and Castlevania.

It does have a classic retro feel too.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy1\"$ \r\n\r\nFirst impressions of the game were a bright and mystical world full of secrets. The main character has no idea where they are or what's going. The story starts from a point where you must figure out why Alwa is here and you; begin your journey. You must explore numerous dungeons to figure out your place in the world. As you move through each level, you find new characters, powerups, spells, and the story unravels. It's an adventure that isn't linear and will require you to traverse, teleport and find secrets in every nook and cranny. As new areas become unlocked, there is some retracing of your steps. I loved the interconnectivity of the world and how there are multiple ways to access different; areas in a deep rich map.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy2\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy gets a lot of things right from gameplay, visuals, sound, level design, and just that it's a fun game. Like any action-adventure game, there is, levelling and finding new powers along your journey. It does a great job of being flexible, and you can power up as you see fit. I enjoyed the variety between action, platform and puzzle mechanics in the game. I never got bored; the story, while nothing helps push forward your existence in the world. World and level design are superb the world; consists of a maze of interconnected dungeons with new creatures in new areas of the world. The retro pixelated style gives the game a real glossy and nostalgic feel. It's a superbly developed game that gets all the game mechanics just right and feels great to play.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"alwaslegacy3\"$ \r\n\r\nAlwa's Legacy was partly funded by a Kickstarter too.

<\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is the wonderfully bright platform\/action game from indie developers Sonzai games. It's inspired; by a host of '80s and '90s platform games.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll lands somewhere in between Marble Madness and Super Monkey Ball from a game mechanics perspective. You take the form of a ball that rolls through wonderfully rendered 3D worlds; each section has its theme from deserts to pyramids and a frozen world. I have to say the 3D worlds remind me of Super Mario 64, it's very reminiscent to me, but that's due to the 3D nature of the world full of bright colours and wonderful characters. The map reminds me of Super Mario 3, while the music and splash screens of the levels remind me of Sonic. The gameplay's a mix of Super Monkey Ball and Marble Madness. You guide your character through lush areas to finish the levels and face the boss. Pixel art helps to get across this picturesque world.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll1\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Each section map area has multiple levels where you will have to use your wits and skills to navigate. Game mechanics are introduced; slowly as you progress through levels to allow for some mastery before the; introduction of the next game mechanic. Game mechanics are roll, rob, jump, and grab items. The levels consist of a mix of speed runs and accuracy where you must be precise as opposed to quick; this is layered with platform pieces too. It's a healthy mix of platformer, fast action puzzler, and frantic speed runs. The difficulty can be; changed to cater for how much of a challenge you want.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"ersamiroll2\"$ <\/p>\r\n
While the game is inspired; by a host of platformers and action games, there is plenty in the game that makes it unique. With the numerous game mechanics and the use of various environments, while reminiscent of a host of classic games. There are plenty of unique elements that make it stand on its own feet. You will get annoyed at the odd camera position where your; platform is obstructed by; your camera. It does have a camera issue, like most 3D platformers. The camera angles in 3D platformers have never been perfect and; this is no exception, but this is the only minor teething issue. The soundtrack, level design and sound effects all work well; it has that chaotic sense of fun.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
$\"supersamiroll3\"$ <\/p>\r\n
Super Sami Roll is a bright and fun platformer action game that draws from the past but is, updated for modern gaming. It's chaotic fun with lots of ups and downs. The game has a learning curve that will require you to put in the time, which means it will be challenging but, the addition of varying difficulty means you can cater it; to your needs. I loved playing something; that isn't novel in modern games while being a homage to some classic games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The game runs at 60 FPS on the Switch. It's currently priced; at $14.99<\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's a prequel to Camp Sunshine which was a cult hit. The game is a mix of dungeon crawler and story-driven RPG. This review is for the PC Steam version which, is available to purchase now; the console versions will be released in 2022.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor1\"$ \r\n\r\nSunshine Manor is a real throwback to the classic 8-bit dungeon RPG. At first, the bright and wonderfully detailed game looks fantastic and does the 8-bit genre justice. The game does have a spooky and eerie underlying theme that is ubiquitous. It's a heavily story-driven narrative that gives context to the Sunshine Manor and why you are there. You have that classic gameplay as you shift through numerous levels of the mansion. The top-down view with fantastically rendered levels gives me a sense of nostalgia but is used by many indie games still. The dungeons are detailed, and each dungeon has its theme. You play as Ada, and you have to go through a series of dungeons with clues to find out what happened in this mansion. Every dungeon, every character and every clue helps to uncover the mystery of the manor.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor2\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game has a timeless retro quality that is easy to pick up and play but has enough to keep you entertained for the duration of the game. It's dark and lots of fun; I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"sunshinemanor3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe game is a fantastic 8-bit horror RPG that has all the great elements of a 2D game. The storyline is intriguing and adds wonderfully scary and horror themes during the game. Level design is superb and the transition between ordinary and horror levels changes the tone of the game. I loved the unexpected jump scares throughout. The dialogue is superb, and the mix of game mechanics from general dungeon crawling to boss battles adds many variations in gameplay. I love how dark and full of horror the game is. The game executes every element with fantastic detail. I also love the general retro feel of the game.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong>\u00a08\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Sunshine Manor Review","post_excerpt":"8-bit retro horror ","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sunshine-manor-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:41:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:41:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207132","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206994,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-10-08 15:00:05","post_date_gmt":"2021-10-08 14:00:05","post_content":"Developer:\u00a0<\/strong>Cathuria Games<\/span>\r\n\r\nPlatform: <\/strong>\u00a0PC, Early Access\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nGenre: <\/strong>Action, Adventure<\/span>\r\n\r\nPublisher:\u00a0<\/strong>Raw Fury<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nDream Cycle is a 3D adventure game from the creator of Tomb Raider, Toby Gard. The game centres around Morgan Carter and the journey through Dreamlands to get her essence back. Morgan's essence was stolen; by her great-great-grand-uncle, Randolph Carter, who is trying to enslave the Dreamlands for his purposes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle1\"$ \r\n\r\nDream Cycle can be played in several perspectives first-person, third-person or hybrid of both (dynamic camera angle chooses what it sees as fit). The option to switch modes is in the menu. Once you decide what view to take, you are on your merry way to explore this labyrinth of levels. Dream Cycle is a mix of a platformer, shooter and stealth game with some magic thrown in for good measure. For the player, this means you can adapt and play the game as suits you. You can go gung-ho or take a stealthy approach. I ended up playing a mix of both to get a feel of your weapons and game mechanics. I found the controls straightforward and intuitive. I liked the mixture of magic and guns. It was jarring at first but grew on me fairly quickly! As you progress through the levels, you gain more magic spells to help you battle the creatures at each dark corner.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe mix of platform elements, fighting, and shooting constitute the core of the game. There are climbing elements, astral projection, and teleportation to help you navigate through the adventures. The adventures (levels) are short and impactful. You take the approach that best suits the game style you want to use. I loved the exploration and discovery of levels. Levels do have lots of weapons and power-ups to find. I enjoyed the choice of a bow, handgun or machine gun as your choice of ranged weapons, unexpected but fun.<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"dreamcycle2\"$ \r\n\r\nIt is an early access game with the latest patch of 1.1.6 at the time of this preview. I didn't encounter any bugs or issues on my playthroughs. The world and the cel-shaded art style mixed with magic elements provides a wonderful; canvas for Morgan to explore. The game has tons of adventures and levels to navigate. I loved the mix of climbing and traversing terrain while using spells such as astral projection to navigate parts of the level to find the best way to scale huge castles. The environments and graphics are magical and intriguing. I did find the similar enemies a bit repetitive at times. I would have liked a bit more of a story-driven narrative to levels instead of just choosing them from the map. In totality, I enjoyed the game mechanics, the levels and the world. I am looking forward to seeing future updates in this game and what the game will ultimately become.<\/span>","post_title":"Dream Cycle Preview","post_excerpt":"3D adventure game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"dream-cycle-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:43:46","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:43:46","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206994","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206954,"post_author":"3","post_date":"2021-09-30 22:29:28","post_date_gmt":"2021-09-30 21:29:28","post_content":"Starring:<\/strong> Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux, Lahana Lynch, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear<\/span>\r\n\r\nDirector:<\/strong> Cary Joji Fukunaga<\/span>\r\n\r\nRelease date:<\/strong> 30th September 2021<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nA young girl witnesses her mothers murder by a masked assailant, and runs for her life.

Originally just called Bond 25, \u2018No Time To Die\u2019 is pretty much everything we all wanted it to be. Running at 2hrs 43mins, it\u2019s an epic and long old movie but you needn\u2019t worry about losing interest in the story at any point. Everything that happens happens for a reason and it all adds up at the end to an epic finale.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDefinitely go and see this on a big screen (IMAX if you feel like pushing the boat out) but just make sure you have a wee beforehand.

The assailant immediately admits to his crime and asks to be arrested and taken to the nearest police station. It is the runaway driver and he seems desperate to be taken away.

Toby Huss is spectacularly creepy and scary as one of the guys who comes into the police station to add to the drama which is already unfolding and add his own unique stamp on proceedings.

The game is a top-down action game in the mould of the classic GTA games. You fight, kill, rob cars and go on missions in this dark and gloomy world filled with gangs and enemies.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk1\"$ \r\n\r\nIf you have played the original GTA games, that will give a good sense of what you will get. The game's mechanics are 2D top-down action-based mayhem where you guide your player around the dark and dystopian city. You can collect new guns, powerups and missions as you navigate the city. You can hijack cars and do as you please! A decent storyline and good dialogue help to bring some colour to the world.<\/span>\r\n\r\nGlitchpunk allows the player to build relationships with other gangs\/factions that can be friendly or adversarial. It means you can be in a hostile world where you are enemy number one, not just with law enforcement.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk2\"$ \r\n\r\nI have to say I enjoyed the twin-stick shooter elements and walking around the world completing missions. However, it should be noted that it is an early access game, and it has some issues. The driving mechanics in the vehicles are clunky and annoying; to say the least, it needs a bit of tweaking. I encountered various issues with the frame rate with a whole host of different graphical settings that also made the game frustrating. Whilst doing missions, you can get a cop rating of between 1 - 5 that indicates your wanted level, I found that police just randomly being everywhere and that the two stars wanted level; that it didn't make a whole lot of sense. The save game feature isn't spelt out. If the developers were to do this, it would have made my first few attempts at the game less annoying. It turned into a rogue-like until I figured out where the safe house was.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n $\"glitchpunk3\"$ \r\n\r\nThe combination of these issues does impact the game. It is a clever concept that has been well thought out but needs some bug fixes to reach its potential; I'm looking forward to the next update where Glitchpunk isn't as glitchy.<\/span>","post_title":"Glitchpunk Preview","post_excerpt":"Cyberpunk game","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"glitchpunk-preview","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:45:23","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:45:23","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=206821","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":32},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};
