I actually really like this game. I realize this game is for a specific type of gamer. I've only just put a bit of time in but the game is solid. Definitely an unusual artistic style, simplistic, but I think it fits the game. Play this game on fantastic, and it looks pretty great on a 1080p screen. I like how the screen kind of rotates to give a more 3d I think the art style emphasizes solid clear lines, and a lot of white, because fighting outside can be pretty hectic. Having a white/grey background really helps enemies stand out. Game play wise is where I think this game shines. The combat is responsive, and I haven't played a game where you can hover with a shield and use it to block bullets. It is definitely unique, and the developer has nailed a good feeling with it. The whole resource system is pretty neat, with you starting with few resources at the beginning. How well you fight the initial monsters sets the tone for how well you'll do. It can be pretty easy for the generators...

Edited review: I still can't recommend this game for 5$ in its current state, but it has potential and I commend the developer for listening to the community and continuing to improve the game.
Downpour is a very interesting game. It's a bit unpolished, but overall I think it's a decent game. I personally recommend it, but if you want a taste of the gameplay, you can check out this Youtube video about it. It isn't the greatest review, but it gives you a pretty good idea about how this game plays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5FJK_O1YAE
I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could pla...
Wow~ Nice game.
This is fun game
This is most definitely not a game. It is a scene with some crappy objects flying to you and making stupid noises. The "developer" made sure that it is not possible to progress to any other level within the game as you just die without reason after a certain amount of time passed. There is nothing to achieve within the game. There is no point to this and definitely not worth buying, even for $1.
