Casey Scheld's Reviews
Space Digger turns the Asteroids concept on its head, but some of the changes made are questionable. It's not a bad game, but it changes the formula in a way some might not agree with.
Bears, Vodka, Balalaika! is proof positive that a single joke cannot carry a game. Between the poor AI, awkward controls, and lack of content, this is one title that is not worth the brief laugh.
Between its meandering writing and poor art, A Nightmare's Trip lacks the polish needed to stand out in the crowded visual novel space.
The concept of meme icons fighting one another will no doubt turn some heads, but this joke is just not taken far enough. The engine powering this bout for the ages is simply not built for the task, hampering its appeal.
Not for Broadcast: Prologue provides a fresh experience that pairs original gameplay with a great sense of humor. Though there is a bit of hand-holding, this taste of things to come has got us eager for the final release.
Type Knight successfully combines typing mechanics with gripping gameplay, but its small scale prevents it from it having long term appeal.
The horror stylings found in Haunted Gas Station are strictly by the books. It does not do anything horribly wrong, but players will know what to expect from this title with a mere glance of the Steam page.
stikir provides a refreshing jaunt through the mind of a creator, but the obtuse logic and quirky humor leads to an experience that is best suited for a select audience.
The aesthetics of Under What? make for an interesting showpiece, but the downtempo beats and solid art can't hide its poor story and lack of direction.
Karate Cat is simplistic by design, but this also takes away from the overall package. Its incredibly cheap price point reflects this, but it does not offer enough to encourage players to pursue it for the long term.
Terrawurm is a structurally sound arcade-like title, but its overly simplistic design hampers its replayability. It's fun for what it is, but don't expect to be engaged in the long term.
When the Past Was Around – Prologue might be a demo of things to come, but its obtuse story and busywork gameplay fail to establish a foundation for the full game.
Climb With Wheelbarrow has an interesting premise, but the controls and camera are simply not up to the task. Expect a healthy dose of frustration should you want to make the climb.
Total Party Kill is a short but sweet puzzle platformer with a unique concept. Though stages begin to bleed together after a while, the planning that goes into each level is worth experiencing at least once.
Spring Falls provides a relaxing experience that offers up challenging puzzle gameplay without ever being unfair. Though this is a one and done type of title, its trek to nature is worth it for those looking to get away from it all.
Treading new ground in the visual novel genre, Arcadia's fusion of technology and jazz provides an incredibly fresh experience that leaves a lasting impression.
All those hoping to get a taste of Timmy's Cooking Show will leave with a bad taste in their mouth. The food is bad, the pacing is poor, and the gameplay is nonexistent.
From Head to Toe does a fair job at setting up an intimate atmosphere, but the lack of context in its script and unpolished design somewhat take away from the title.
Gorytale might not be a polished affair, but it does offer mindless shooting entertainment. Those that don't mind turning their brain off can enjoy a shooter than trades aesthetics for sheer mayhem.
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD has a novel concept, but the incredibly fidgety camera puts a ghastly stain on the overall package.
