Every update brings me back!

10/10

Love it! Has a real Junji Ito vibe.

Can't wait to see what is added next!

Super Bernie World is a very short 2D platformer based on the original Super Mario Bros with a political slant. Controls are not as tight as the source material, but nothing game breaking. Music is pretty repetitive, but since the game is so short (4 worlds with 3 levels each,) it never gets overly grating.

Everything I could have asked for in an Igavania/Metroidvania game.

A true love letter to Castlevania fans.

Possibly the best Dragon Quest since V and VIII. Amazing story, beautiful graphics and classic Dragon Quest game play.

Whoa. Don't read the reviews or watch videos! Just play!

With the help of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch, this game still holds to the test of time.

So I have to admit that the ending made up for the stock RPG Maker sprites/tiles and odd design choices. I went in blind and came out thinking of all the past games I've played and the memories they hold. Nice job!

PROS:

• Classic 2D platforming
• Visuals are not bad and have a nice 16-bit vibe to them
• Ninjas are cool

CONS:

• Controls are a bit slippery.
• Touching a wall during a fall or mid jump makes Akane grab the wall and slide down. The issue with this is 1) you cannot just jump up the wall a la Megaman X and 2) it is the slowest wall slide in the history of video games.
• The sound quality in the game is pretty bad. All of the sounds appear to be from stock sound effect sites or game maker kits.
• The music is not very good

PRO from CON:

• Very short and easy to breeze through!

So Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Super Ghouls & Ghosts had a secret love child. Seriously. This game combines the difficulty of Ghouls & Ghosts with the candle breaking, castle exploration of modern 2D Castlevania games into one crazy rogue-like!

A nice twist involves your character. Each time you die, you enter the castle as one of the previous character's heirs. Each heir has traits, some good and some bad. For instance, you die in the castle and are given three choices of your heir. One of the choices may be a barbarian giant who is color blind. This would make your character strong, your sprite larger and everything on screen grayscale. That character dies and the next heir may be a hypochondriac dwarf who displays exaggerated damage numbers when hit and is half the size of the normal character.

Graphics: The art of Rogue Legacy is on par with late 16-bit / early 32-bit 2D platformers. Colorful palette with well animated pixel art is abundant here.

Sound: Great sound track keeps the player engaged and fits the tone of the castle. No complaints with the sound effects, though you will most likely hear the first castle music and the death screams quite a bit starting out!

Control: Tight and well executed. I played using an Xbox 360 wireless controller and found the controls precise and smooth.
