April 2025
Totally surprised me in the most positive way possible. One of the best games I've played over the last several years, period. Gameplay is fantastic, story is amazing, graphics hit just the right place, sound design is one of the most satisfying I've ever seen. This game is pure gold.

Really short and to the point type of game. Gameplay felt a bit lacking, but not too bad. Mobs and even bosses diversity is close to 0, you will fight everything in the same manner. Also, never felt the need to use all the ammo types, especially when your primary ammo is the best and infinite. Wish there were more types of encounters that required you to use different strategies, not just one mob Also, a bit too much backtracking. You won't necessarily get lost, but would have been way better if the game had a map or a mini-map of sorts to help guide you. Story is by far the most intriguing aspect. Not the most theatrically written masterpiece, but it is really good. I like the "gibberish" voice acting, highly prefer it to having mute NPCs. Loved the dialogue and interactions with different characters, it was rather charming. They managed to fit in quite a lot of lore, story telling and character development in the swift amount of time you have passing through the world. Overall, it is a really concise and engaging game. I recommend you play it if you enjoy side-scrollers. 7.5/10

First off, watch the tags. They have it displaying Anime (not even close), Metroidvania (nope), and action roguelike... there's no roguelike gameplay what-so-ever here. However... What you do have is a fun action platformer, and I loved it. Great controls, fun combat, likable characters, unique boss battles, interesting music, and fantastic artwork. Sadly, there aren't a lot of secrets or additional paths, and the game is kinda short, so there isn't much replayability here. However, if you want a fun one-and-done kind of game, I highly recommend this.

It has an idea, and potential to be a great game. It's such a shame it's not. World/map design is pretty bad, there are a few secrets which is not enough aaand it's pretty boring. If the setting seems interesting, it might be worth buying on a sale. Ultimately, I'll give it a good rating as it's not a bad game, but a mediocre and lacking one.

I really enjoyed this game, but there are a couple of caveats that might turn off certain players. Firstly, this has a simply told, but fairly meaningful and surprisingly dark story that ends in a way I did not see coming. It does a good job at conveying a lot of meaning without needing a ton of words to do it. The titular Gunbrella is also an awesome combination of multiweapon and traversal tool, giving your character a way to move around that I've never seen in another game, but which also feels fantastic and is easy to master. You will travel around the world, unraveling the story and completing optional quests for people you'll meet along the way. Don't sit on them too long though as there are several you can miss if you progress too far before completing them. At certain points, you can go back and forth between areas, but this is pretty linear overall. The two things that I didn't mind, but that I think some might is that Gunbrella is both very short and VERY easy. My playthrough where I did most of the side quests, but missed a couple only took me about 5 hours, though How Long to Beat says 100%-ing it can take up to 10. I also died maybe a half dozen times in the entire game and half of those were on the final boss, who I thought might be a challenge until I discovered something quickly that made him trivial. Unless you have bad aim or bad reflexes, you won't find this challenging at all. I didn't mind either of these things as I prefer shorter games these days and sometimes, I just enjoy a fun adventure that isn't a skill test, but some players will find the lack of challenge boring. That's fair if you're that type of player, so you should know that. I had a good time with this and I hope Doinksoft makes more stuff like it.
