Lichtspeer

[h1]Lichtspeer[/h1] A long awaiting game is here, finally! :) [h1]One simple rule[/h1] Get your lichtspeer and kill all incoming enemy waves over and over, across the levels. [h1]Gameplay[/h1] The one simple rule makes this game very repetitive, but not boring. This is just an essential of the game and works perfectly as designed. Fast pace of the game doesn't allow you to take deep breath. One mistake can cause your death and makes you to start level again and again. Hint 1: Find a pattern in the enemy waves. Hint 2: Aim for the head, always if you can. Pure adrenaline :) Very addictive gameplay :) [h1]Special abilities[/h1] Your character has 3 special abilities which can be developed during the progress in the game. It's worth to do that, because it can help you to pass through the level in critical moments. This also makes the gameplay more interesting and differential, ensure more hours to play. [h1]Graphics[/h1] Very nice, cartoon-like graphics, styled to ancient-german-what...

Lichtspeer starts off as a whole lot of fun. If you're willing to spend an hour, maybe an hour and a half, on it then buy it, play it, move on. You'll not regret it. To start you'll be a licht throwing god. Three, five, seven headhost combos. You'll be rattling off spears like lightning and feel like the god of thunder. It's a complete blast and chasing those high scores couldn't have been more fun. However if you play up to the Zoculus (I forget it's name) then things start turning sour. The number of you're-dead-if-you-miss situations multiply and the stages get longer. The gameplay becomes shallow and repetitive and replaying stages becomes a chore. And the controls are (intentionally?) broken. You aim with the mouse cursor but the cursor is invisible. Turning around consitently is a pain because you can't tell at what point the cursor will move over the character and cause them to flip. It's no longer skill-based hard, it's a random death slog. I think the same proble...

As a German, it goes without saying the we start practicing with das Lichtspeer on the day we are born and set free to fight our way out of the horror or das Gebährkanal. While scenes in the game might seem a bit weird, even foreign to the non-native eye, ja, I assure you over here in the land of das Kraut, das ist okay! Usually I don't feel das Bedürfnis to write ein Review, but there have been so much misconceptions about German culture and history and as this game is trying to broaden international understanding, we Übermenschen would be the last to not follow the Zeitgeist of Videospiels and educate all the Völker. Here mein Urteil: While it might be bland and boring, as the daily life simulation it is, it really does capture the feeling of ordinary monday in mid fall. 9/10

[h1]Achtung! Lichtspeer is a fancy looking game with some hipster attitude, but ultimately it just plays like one of those mediocre flash games you might remember from earlier times...[/h1] [b]Yes, it is funny and entertaining at first but it turns out to be repetitive and frustating very soon.[/b] You can upgrade your abilities between levels, which is a plus, but the game mechanics are still very limited (you can't even move your character around). Lichtspeer feels like a game that belongs in the mobile gaming sector, it just doesn't offer enough to be a full-fledged PC game to be released on Steam. Although it seems to be decently coded, there are still some flaws I'd like to mention. The thing that stressed me out most is that the trajectory indicators are white triangles with some darkish outlines, however, a big portion of the game is going on on very bright backgrounds, so the trajectory of your spear can be very hard to determine. The fact that you cannot disable screen shak...

Nice, but not worth the money. It would have been OK for 3-4 Euros. Ever visited "Jayisgames", there you find lots of free Indie and flash games as well as recommendations for non-free games. Over the years I played dozens of pretty funny and nice flash games with a pretty similiar gaming concept as "Lichtspeer"; killing Zombies, destroying Castles etc. Lichtspeer has interesting grafics, the humour is great etc. But the gameplay is (of course) very repetive and nothing special or innovative at all. It's a game you play here and then for some minutes. I've bought it and I won't ask for a refund, because it was pretty obvious, what I would get. I only expected to have more fun! The game just speeds up the enemies, who are pretty similiar most of the time, and that's what changes from level to level. You, standing there, expecting hordes of enemies that are getting faster. There would have been much room for many, many little gags and ideas that wasn't used. So you have the graphics tha...

An awesome little game good for some serious fun. Very difficult.

Excellent execution for what would one think a simple game. Lot's of humor and the ancient germanic future is AMAZING!

By the title I was expecting some dodgy porn site.

Nice music and graphics, but... uh... At the very least, the first few levels are just a repetitive slog. Doesn't really inspire. I was hoping for something engaging like Hotline Miami or Not A Hero, check out either of them if you want something simple and retro with a good soundtrack.

It's a fun arcade / flash game. amazing art/music. unique sense of humor. Just a spear-throwing sim, but it mixes things up a lot with inclines, different enemy times, and various cooldown balanced power ups.
