Neon Abyss is a rogue-like dungeon style shooter. The game is filled with unlimited items and dungeon evolving system. Players take control of a gunman, who fights a horde of enemies from the underworld. You can play the way you want and choose upgrades and paths within the dungeon. Players can unlock new rooms, fight bosses and endings. Just like a visual novel genre also special rules. You can change them depending on the choice you make. Each items have passive effects and you can apply them whatever you want. Neon Abyss have massive content with over 400 items, multiple playable characters and costume change. Find pets by hatching eggs with special skills and abilities. Mini-Games are available such as Fight Clubs, Dance Competitions and Piano Performances. Challenge gods such Bitcoins, Video and Power to challenge their rule. Hit that bar after each death.

Remember your goal is to find a cure of Immortality, My overall experience with Neon Abyss is vibrant and fun game. The soundtrack is techno-ish and crispy graphics. Although, it’s a beta version but it’s look amazing with lighting fast action. The weapons design is humorous and down-right rocking. I can see this game have replay value due to routes. Neon Abyss gives players control of their playstyle. I am hoping to see more of this game. It kind of reminds me of Enter the Gungeon for some reason. Support Veewo Games and play the demo.

SpiritSphere and Meme Machine | Ping-Ping Blocks Indie Hands-on

What is SpiritSphere?

Hello readers it’s been a while since I did a indie game hands on post. We will explore two games SpiritSphere and Meme Machine. These games play very causal and fans will love these titles. SpiritSphere is a ping-pong Windjammers indie game developed by Eendhoorn Games. The game draws inspiration from Legend of Zelda due to top-down camera angle. Spiritsphere plays like air-hockey with local multiplayer. I wish there was online in this game. There is different game modes such play against cpu. Earn coins to get new spheres and Squash mode. Squash mode is each player has a turn to hit the wall. Although if it’s not your turn, the other player scores. Players can choose up to 4 players for team match. If you don’t want to play with a partner. Go head to head with your friend.

The main goal of SpiritSphere is to get the sphere on the other player side. Simple enough right but wait there is more. There are different items and powerup to give player a edge. SpiritSphere features a small roster of characters but more will come. The game graphic is NES 8-bit style with eccentric soundtrack. The game is easy to pick for newcomers and veterans. Each character have unique abilities for knocking spheres. My thoughts on SpiritSphere as a whole. The game is very fun arcade-ish with retro value. NES fans will feel right at home with this. Grab a buddy and talk trash with this indie game. Make sure you get SpiritSphere on Steam and Nintendo Switch.

Lets start with Down Ward, is a indie that follow Gabe. Gabe is a little owl that’s tasked with relighting four wilds towers. Players could gather feathers to light up wards and complete levels. Move camera angel to look for feathers. Down Ward was inspired with classic Game Boy graphics. The enemies stand out for the background. Player have a choice to use the gamepad or keyboard.

Haymakers and Worst Dating Sim – Indie Games Hands-on

Two indies Worst Dating sim and Haymakers

Here are two indie games I have tried out. Some of the demos are short. I have wrote about all three game Haymakers and Worst Dating Sim. These two game were fun to play and made me laugh. I wrote a post about other hands-on games if you want to check them out. This is more like a review and my overall opinion about each game. First, let get on with the discussing all Haymaker.

Haymakers

Haymaker is a fun 2D platormer about a scarecrow looking for adventure. During my playthough, we meet Lottie and Bobby who looking for a way out. Bobby is amazed at Lotties ability to use Hitch-folk. In Haymakers, platforming is so much enjoyable with excellent mechanics. Lottie can zipline from stump, enemies and many others. She can break though blocks by zipline. I can see a speed-runner completing this game. In my opinion, this is one of the best looking platformers I ever seen. Visuals standout with detail designs of levels and characters. I am hoping to see more of Haymakers. If you want a light-hearted 2d platformer support Alexander Rosetti and play the demo.
