[Old Edition] Croixleur Sigma

I bought this game on a whim when it was on sale because I'm a gigantic weeaboo fagget [i]My penor was pleased.[/i] [h1]Skipping straight to the story:[/h1] You start as Lucrezia Visconti, who has a typical anime character design except her twintails seem to be gradient coloured and she's not a tsundere (HOLY SHIET!), in some weird ass tower that I forgot the name of (if it ever had one) that she has to complete to become the strongest knight or something. THE CLOCK IS TICKING AND YOU MUST REACH THE TOP OF THE TOWER TO BECOME THE VERY BEST. How do you do that? Of course you kill goblins, flying eyes, huge demons, paladins and DRAGONS a la fast paced Hack 'n' Slash gameplay with your multitude of weapons that you acquire from progressing in said tower. [h1]Jokes on you, the story doesn't matter at all in this game, it's the gameplay.[/h1] Just like any other hack and slash game you must whack mobs as fast as you can (or as stylishly possible if you think you're in Devil May Cry) and r...

[i]Croixleur Sigma[/i] is an arcade hack n slash featuring two adorable main characters named [b]Lucrezia[/b] and [b]Francesca[/b]. [b]I would strongly recommend a controller for this game[/b]. And locking the game to 60 fps in the configuration tool to avoid breaking the game completely.(Very high fps speeds the game up, making it impossible to play.) Although the game is very short it has a ton of replay value with all the different game modes, which are: [b]Story Mode[/b], [b]Arcade Mode[/b], [b]Score Attack[/b], [b]Survival[/b], 30 different challenges and an extra [b]Bonus Mode[/b] that unlocks after you complete the Story Mode under a certain time with each character. The main focus of this game is to kill every enemy in each of the levels until you advance to the next level, while doing it as fast and efficiently as possible to get the best time possible. Every level also increases the difficulty slightly with tougher monsters, and every 5 levels they throw a boss creature in...

The question we must ask when buying a game like this is how much value are we getting for our money? The answer to that is, a 10 minute Story mode. It will than take about 3 minutes to complete all the "challenges" and than another 3 minutes to do a run through Score Attack mode. After that all there is to do is play Survival Mode over and over again and there really isn't much fun in that. There is hardly much of a game here and for the full price of $8 this is pretty pathetic. You can experience the game in it's entirety in less than 20 minutes. About 3 standard enemy types and 3 boss types, all of which can be killed individually in less than 5 seconds. This is probably the easiest arena fighter i've played before. Oh and one more thing, Local Co-op? I don't think so. The current steam version does not contain the required Setup.exe to set the controls for Player 2, so without that you cannot play Co-op. If you manage to track down that file (which I did) you can experience Survi...

PLOT: Lucrezia wants to take a bath with Francesca. Franny is all "NO WAY IN HELL" and runs off to a massive tower(paging Dr. Freud). Luc has to fight through a dozen or so floors of goblins, flying eyeballs, knights in shining armor, and huge beasts to drag Fran's sorry butt into the tub. Okay I forgot the actual plot to this game. I assure you all that there is one and it's kinda-sorta-quasi-serious. But who cares about that nonsense? This is a supplemental-arcade-arena-slashemup. If you have less than 15 minutes to spare you can complete a play-through of this game. Yes, this game is a short one, but it's pretty sweet. There are no crazy mission designs, no escorting, no stealth, nothing but just slashing through hundreds of generic foes and grabbing coins. Before the game starts you decide on your arsenal. There are 10 weapons per gal and they all have their own special moves. Basically you want a combination of weapons that suit your play-style. Special moves can be chained for...

+ Various modes of play to explore, though nothing particularly innovative + Includes a collection of challenges to complete, and bonuses to unlock + The system for unlocking weapons makes for great combos that are fun to use + Time attack and survival modes help to buff up replay value + Fluid, intuitive combat system - Unplayable without a controller; the controller setup, too, was an absolute nightmare (I spent over an hour on help forums to finally get the game to recognize my controller past the keybinding setup screen) - Even for an indie game, the graphics were very, very poor for a game in 2014 - Story mode is incredibly short (~10-15 minutes), placing heavy emphasis on the few other gamemodes for (somewhat) forced replayability - Plot was generic and uninspired; the game's narrative took a complete back-seat to the gameplay, and felt almost "painted on" [h1]LockeProposal's Big Day Out[/h1] [url=http://steamcommunity.com/groups/bigdayout#]Community Group[/url] [url=http://st...

Support for this version got dropped and they re-released it with DLC attached. No free upgrade or discount for owners of this original so you have to buy the game all over again to get a supported version. Trash dev + publisher don't support them.

7/10 - Recommend if you love mindless hack and slashing fun, with tight controls and unlockables. Plus a total of 4 different modes to play, steam achievements and cards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwCZmHGnqqA

Dropped support for the old version, wont give a free upgrade to new, old version hardly functions anymore

Croixleur Sigma is two things. It's a pretty neat and enjoyable, if shallow, arena action game that you'll probably burn out on if you spend too much time playing. It is also a game where you play as a gay sword magician girl with twin tails. The decision of whether or not to buy this game is in your hands, I am simply relaying the facts.

its a Hack & Slash, if you like them, and you like cute anime girls, its a win. <3 i beat the story pretty fast, but when i tried the survival mode, i maybe lasted 10 min. its so intense and fun!! it has a high replay value for the time attack mode, and survival... XD and the story is adorable between the two girls. def worth a grab on sale, or if you have the money snag it up not on sale. <3
