About This Game

Hello, my name is Wordsworth and I narrate this game.

This rogue-like is full of great, fast paced action strategy and horrible, stomach quivering smells. You might pee green for a while. You’ll start playing to see what can happen but you’ll keep coming back to hear me talk about it all.

The tale I have for you is of a heroic, although pungent lad who crash lands on a foreign planet while on a cargo mission through deep space. He needs your help to survive until his rescue ship arrives.

Finding food will be the simple part, because the stress of surviving alone manifests as hallucinations of deadly demons. You’ll need to help the lad deal with his past to overcome his demons and get home.



Features!

Combat will butt-slap you hard and fast (I heard you like that) with a huge variety of nasty demons to duel. I give each demon a nasty nickname, too.



Besides me, the sexiest part of the ordeal are suit and weapon upgrades. Upgrades unlock almost as fast as catching space diarrhea and each unlock is an exercise in choosing key strategy.



Randomly generated dungeons are fresh and clean every run, while also being dirty and dank as dungeons should be.



The Music is a kinky romance between retro ear sensations and dance tracks that only handsome people listen to. The best part is that each track is randomly generated and given a loving title by me.

Fun game, worth the 9 or 10 dollars IMO. Simple in concept with classic side-scrolling run and gun action. Simple in concept, but not so simple to master. Combat is a test of recognizing enemies on the fly and quickly reacting to the way they attack (jump over X enemy to avoid their grab, run under Y enemy's jump attack, then avoid Z enemy's projectile, then sneak in some damage of your own). To that end, there is a good variety of enemies. As you go, you'll collect upgrades, of which you can have 3 activated at once. This allows for variety of builds and play styles between playthroughs. Once you've collected some good upgrades and good consumables, then you challenge the final boss (you can fight the final boss right at the start, but you'll get stomped).

Alright, listen up peasants. You ever wanted to feel like a badass with a laser sword and swipe at hallucinations, while being trapped ALONE on a desolate planet with your only chance at getting back home is a dinky little ship, guarded by a massive molten rock amalgamation? Yeah, this game AIN'T IT, or is it? FIND OUT NOW AND PURCHASE [<---[i]italics, valve pls[/i]] instead of throwing your twitch prime sub away to Ninja's deceased and overpopulated channel. Look, I'm going to feed you some truths, so hang tight, alright? PROS: 1. Soundtrack is [strike]stupidly[/strike] awesome, randomly generated content with a record label being pumped out every few minutes Next. Quips from the robot fella are hilarious. Just plain golden what this creator has come up with. Has helped me through a deteriorating relationship with my left hand Third: Graphics are nostalgic, with gnarly spritework. Sound design is effective, but there are some st-st-stuttering issues if there's too much going on...

I enjoyed this game's arcade-style focus. While there is not a lot of variety, there is a lot of beauty in the art and design. Gameplay is easy to get used to - yet I encountered some framerate issues in fullscreen - and I had a great time! I tried the game with all three suits and found each one unique and fun, though I believe the saber is most powerful. The "juice crafting" mechanic is a fantastic new dish to bring to the table! I loved trying to mix the right amount of juice for the best-crafted smoothies in the galaxy. For its price tag, this game is an good and honest effort. Some bugs need to be cleaned up (nothing game-breaking), but I generally enjoyed the experience, and there's nothing like the feeling of getting your money's worth in the arcade machine after you put in the winning quarter. That's how I felt. This is a good game.
