While I can appreciate that 'Arobynn: The First Adventure' was knocked up in a bedroom with "scraps" what I can't appreciate is just how unplayable the game is. It doesn't tell you the controls, it took me ages to even work out how to get the gun out and the UI is nothing more than text blocks. I can look past the super basic graphics and lack of animation given the small asking price, but it does have to at least be playable which this is not. It should have been a simple little shooter with a high-score, but it doesn't even manage that. It really needed a lot more work before it was launched and for now, I really can't recommend it. And yes, it is only playable standing (not wheelchair friendly), I had to prop myself up on my table just to get a gun out! You can check out my gameplay video here, but there really isn't a lot to see at all - https://youtu.be/n-FBjtMl4hs

About This Game
Full disclosure: the levels are a little too big and the game doesn't have that much content, but the guns feel really good and wandering around shooting things can be pretty fun IF you enjoy dodging the occasional missile and have good enough aim to shoot the frustratingly small and fast drones that are constantly hunting you down.
Backstory: Most of the living word and the surface has been destroyed during the Geocubic wars of the past. A devastating technology that crystalizes structures was weaponized and used heavily during the wars which attributes to the barren wastes you will explore. You are in search of a rare herb that has begun to grow in the wastes as it is your best hope of saving your ailing grandfather. Despite the dangers that still inhabit the wastes, you head out armed with your sidearm, searching the once inhabited surface.
Note: The campaign is really just you going out and shooting the things that hunt you. You are the only character and the backstory is flavor text. My next game will have more depth, but for now, feel free to go shoot stuff. Especially those drones because they are evil...
