Deadly Escape

Rather interesting in many ways. Game takes some new approaches and doesn't charge very much. Pixel-graphic cutscenes, defined weapon range, lot of graphical touches, and lot of in-game notes. You can tell this developer put his heart into it. I would recommend this game, only if you are wanting to try something a little experimental. It is still buggy, but that's almost not unexpected here. My main concern is the lack of save feature, except after the first chapter. That first chapter has a lot of gotcha moments, and it has a lot of unskippable cutscenes. It looks like the developer moved onto other projects, so it is what it is, folks. Experimental but also inexpensive. I played this game on ubuntu linux, with radeon mesa graphic drivers. I have not gotten past the first chapter, yet, but I enjoy adventure style games and twin-stick shooters. This game surprisingly does not have gamepad controller support, so try using the Steam Controller tool to map controls to your keypad. The ga...

TLDR at bottom! For a game that is $0.99 and was only released 1 day ago for me at the time of writing this, I thought I would jump in with unbias towards the other products made by Ominous Entertainment as their other games were 'alright'. First things first: The Story: You are a security guard who wakes up after sustaining an injury amidst a zombie outbreak in an ominous laboratory. As you progress you find out that some serious shit was going down and then that same serious shit went south as most everyone in this facility is infected. You make your way through this facility killing zombies left and right while also finding bits of lore along the way which really arent that interesting as it is just another, "something went w rong in testing" zombie outbreak, nothing too unique or interesting. You eventually confront a silent scientist who injects a dead body with something that turns him into a raging giant of rotting flesh. After killing this goliath, you follow after the doctor...

6/10 It makes me sad not to recommend Deadly Escape. I enjoyed my experience with this top-down, pixelated, Resident Evil-esque title. I was absolutely in the mood to play a game like this, with the impending release of the Resident Evil 2 remake. I found myself rationing ammo, searching for keycards, luring zombies into explosive barrels, etc. After playing for about 30 min, locating red and yellow keycards and finding replacement fuses for a generator, I stumbled into a boss fight. I pulled out a rifle and attempted to figure out it's maximum range, while the boss then immediately threw two explosive barrels at me and killed me. I then realized that there were no save points in the game at all. This is a problem, especially since success seems to require such slow and methodical gameplay for the majority of the level. I'm not interested in slowly and painstakingly playing the first 30 min of the game just for another attempt on that boss. Perhaps some players are willing to make th...

Deadly Escape is simply a game I happened to be looking at after the most recent Summer sale ended. Despite my reservations with budget/bundle titles, this looked pretty cool and was positively rated overall, so I thought I'd give it a go. [h1]Story[/h1] Classic zombie virus breakout story. You are a security guard (I think) trapped in a science facility where a zombie virus break out has occurred. You wake up not really knowing what's going on other than you and others had taken up sanctuary in a sealed chamber that has since become unsealed. Your only real goal (at least at this time) is to escape the facility. 7/10 [h1]Gameplay[/h1] The gameplay in Deadly Escape is actually a lot of fun. The controls are all keyboard and pretty simple. Arrow keys to move, E to interact, F for your flashlight, and an interesting auto aim/manual shoot mechanic using the X and C keys. Holding down the X key shows your attack radius, which varies depending on the weapon you are using. C fires. Ther...

Cool small game, feels like a small tribute to biohazard. Got the game for less than a dollar, a well done purchase. Now a quick review. Pros. -Classic survival horror gameplay. -Super cheap. -Value will increase over time due to new chapters and other stuff to be added like leaderboards -Biohazard vibe Cons -Like with any recently launched game, it has a few bugs here and there, nothing that hinders the gameplay. -Simple gameplay, which could be a pro for casual players. -Only one chapter right now Conclusion A fun game for survival horror players, extremelly good value for the money spent.

JUST FIX BUGS PLS, a to pizde....

I like this type of game, and I do actually like this game. BUT... It's clunky, VERY short, frustrating due to poor animations and glitches and I think it's been abandoned. Glitches and issues for me included a zombie attacking me and me not being able to move or attack (this happened a couple of times) and the gun glitching on the third shot - happened consistently for one play through. As this is a permadeath game, both of this were VERY frustrating! - I actually quite like permadeath games, especially if they're shorter, but you can't have glitches in them. This makes it broken rather than just a challenge. As it's a cheap game, I can forgive a lot of the points I've made, but at a glance it doesn't look like anything has been done on this game for about a year now so I think it's abandoned, which is a shame. I think if issues had been ironed out, more chapters had been released, more achievements included and a few additional game modes, this game would have been fantastic! If...

Survivial horror returns to its roots. I got a strong resident evil vibe when playing it when I encountered the first undead. A pretty great game to say the least. However there are a few negative things i would like to point out. The character can get stuck in corners quite often and i died quite a few times as a result. The next thing is that the character just suddenly stopped in his tracks while running and won't move (kinda like RE). The final issue i have is that there are no checkpoints in the game so whenever you die you're gonna have to do the same things over again just to get back to where you were. I reached the first boss and got rekted the moment i went in and was quite pissed to find out that i had to play through the entire game again just to get back to fight him. So including a checkpoint system or a save system would help greatly.

I love getting 30 minutes into a game with no save points or checkpoints and not being able to progress because the game glitches out and won't open a door

It's A Great Game. There are a few gitches here and there, but the devs can fix them. 10/10 would get this game.
