Pretty simple twin-stick shooter. Nice theme, good music. Not much more to say now that the game is no longer available. I only stayed to get those shiny achievements, which were simply stupid amounts of grinding.

This game would have been exceptional is the maps were more than just wallpapers. I know that the motif of enemies spawning from every direction is part of the games difficultly schtick, but almost every death I had came from an unseen enemy at the edge of a map. Apart from that, a great little time waster, simple twin stick survival shooter. Nice aesthetics. Funny characters. Excellent music. Witch is my Waifu, but they are all funny. Solid controller support, likely very low resources needed. Be Evil. Kill other evil stuff. Unlock a tank. 8/10

I love it. Where else can you play as Death Granny or Death Kitty? Good power ups, generic death metal music, and decent graphics. Pick it up on a sale.

A pretty standard twin stick top down shooter. What sets it apart is the glorious metal sound track. If you are a fan of metal, you'll love this.

RELEASE THE CRACKHEADS!!! Death Goat is a hard-core wave based twin-stick shooter where you play as a Satanic goat (or maybe someone else if you prefer, like a death metal granny in a wheel chair) shooting down hordes of demons in a wasteland of your choice. It doesn't really matter who you choose though because all the characters seem to function the same - although the tank does seem pretty difficult to monitor the protection aura level. Death Goat also has a lot going for it music wise. If you like metal, you're going to like this. You can select what you want to listen to, or just go for shuffle track on death which is the best way to go really until you've heard it all and picked your favourite tracks in the game. In terms of actual game play you move about on a fairly empty wasteland - there aren't any environmental obstacles like mountains; it's just you and tonnes of demons (though being in early access maybe some environmentals will be added later). The worst of all the demons you will encounter is the tiny skull spider, and although they are the easiest thing to kill, there's lots of them, and they move fast. Your character is surrounded by an aura and each time a demon touches it (regardless of its size) the aura degrades a level and that demon dies. Once the aura is gone you're ready to be eaten by the next demon you come into contact with unless you find an aura refill. If you're eaten you lose one of your three lives, and explode killing everything before respawning. I found it not uncommon to run into a couple of small spider skulls at the same time and suddenly lose all my aura. The aura could probably do with having a brief moment of invulnerability when you get touched to make the game a little fairer, but then Death Goat isn't really about being fair. As well as the aura pick-up there's also nuke style pentagrams (of which you can hold three) and various power-ups for your weapon. Weapon power-ups are timer based and do not stack which made me a bit sad when I realised I couldn't combine effects. My favourite power-up so far is what I would describe as a psychic chainsaw, though most attacks are variants on your base projectile style weapon. Death Goat is made in Unity, and it works pretty well. It automatically detected my ideal resolution, and I haven't found any bugs or anything that makes it difficult to play. My Xbox 360 controller worked really well with Death Goat - you use the analogue sticks and the triggers only, so you never have to shift the position of your fingers. One stick to move, the other stick to shoot in a given direction, one trigger to run, and the other to pentagram (nuke). Death Goat is just pure twitch: dodge and shoot twin stick badassery. Being in early access Death Goat shows a lot of promise, and the dev seems to be very active in the community, and the current price of $2.99USD is pretty fair. The fact that the game appears to be bug free at this point means that development is going to focus on adding new features as asked for by the community, which is pretty exciting. I'm particularly looking forward to the possibility of multiplayer modes being added. 7 out of 10 would RELEASE MORE CRACKHEADS \m/
