Hop into the cockpit of your fighter and take down a virtual network that has evolved a little too much for its own good in this shoot ‘em up from Bikkuri Software. It offers non-stop action and a bullet grazing mechanic that forces you to risk life and limb to boost your score while unleashing devastating attacks. The 16-bit style of the visuals and audio offers a nice blast from the past for fans of the genre, but even newcomers can ease into the action thanks to a practice mode and selectable difficulty settings. The game is a little short for our liking and the style might not appeal to everyone, but if you enjoy a good shoot ‘em up you can do far worse than this one.Gameplay: Being forced to skirt dangerously close to bullets instead of simply avoiding them makes for a frantic experience.Graphics: The 16-bit visual style is charming, but might not appeal to those who didn’t grow up with the genre.Sound: The soundtrack is good, but the sound effects lack a little punch.
When humanity discovers a way to convert human consciousness into data, it opens up whole new avenues for communication. It’s not long before people start using this technology to create a virtual network for entertainment purposes. Unfortunately, at some point in the 23rd century, this virtual network, which is known as “EDEN,” locks out its administrator and takes the 2.4 million civilians connected to it hostage. In order to free the hostage, a secret government organization is tasked with sending their elite fighters to take down the evolved network. This can only be done by reaching the central “Tower” of the system, but in order to do so, they must first fight their way through the four zones of EDEN.Graze Counter is a retro-style shoot ‘em up with a couple of tricks up its sleeve to entice fans of the genre. True to its name, the central mechanic of the game is your ability to graze enemy bullets and fill up your graze counter. To accomplish this, you need to get as close as possible to enemy bullets without actually taking a hit.
Doing this is not just good for your score, but also allows you to unleash a devastating attack once you’ve filled the gauge. In addition to making mincemeat of your enemies, this counterattack also has the added benefit of turning their bullets into golden stars. These stars are definitely worth collecting as they fill up your “Break” gauge. Once fully charged, the Break Gauge can be emptied for an even more powerful attack along with a shower of score boosting red stars. These gauges, along with the fact that your score multiplier rapidly decreases when you are not actively grazing bullets, results in a game where you are constantly putting yourself in harm’s way.
It is a constant cycle of risk and reward that is as addictive as it is exhilarating and definitely an experience that even jaded fans of the genre will enjoy.Despite how intense Graze Counter might look, it is actually also quite an accessible title for newcomers to the genre. There are three difficulty levels to choose from and all the techniques that you need to succeed are drilled into you thanks to a handy mission mode. The inclusion of a “Practice” mode also allows you to hone your skills before going for the real deal. Unfortunately, with only five levels, Graze Counter might just be a little too easy for some. Even with a couple of big bosses standing in your way, it won’t take too long to see the ending credits scroll past. Thankfully, there are a couple of things that the developers included to increase the longevity of the game.
These include six additional ships that can be unlocked to supplement the choice of two that you start with. These ships are not just new skins either, but bring their own pros and cons to the table, so mastering each of them is a new experience. Then there’s the “Omake” mode where you’ll find some additional challenges, such as a boss rush mode that throws you into a gauntlet of formidable foes to beat in succession. Visually, it’s clear that the developers of Graze Counter have a fondness for the 16-bit era. Although the graphics probably won’t impress players who are not fans of shoot ‘em ups from the nineties, they certainly capture the look and feel of the era.
Each level has it’s own theme, but backgrounds are kept simple on purpose to ensure that you have a better view of all the bullets heading in your direction. Enemy designs are also quite good and consists of the usual tanks and spaceships typically favored by the genre. The bosses aren’t too bad either, but you won’t encounter anything as memorable as what is found in games like R-Type or Darius. Due to the nature and style of the visuals they are not in high resolution or full-screen, but instead feature large borders on the sides. Just like the visuals, the soundtrack is a nostalgic throwback to the 16-bit era and complements the action nicely. We would have liked to hear sound effects with a little more impact, but what’s on offer sounds good enough and never becomes annoying.Shoot ‘em ups definitely plays better with a good controller, so it’s good to see that Graze Counter supports gamepads and allow you to change the key configuration. We were unfortunately not able to bind any of the actions to the trigger or shoulder buttons of our Xbox 360 controller, but everything worked well enough using the face buttons.
In addition to your primary fire button, you also have a button to activate your counter attack and another for the break attack. A separate button to enable slowdown can also be used, but switching the control scheme to “novice” mode combines this button with your shot button. This makes it easier to graze bullets and hit enemies while shooting, but veteran players will probably want to separate the two in order to make the game a little more challenging. While each ship has their own shooting style, the game doesn’t feature any weapon upgrades.
You won’t encounter many power-ups either and instead a choice between a shield, boost multiplier or gauge refill occasionally appear.The limited amount of levels and ease with which the game can be completed certainly counts against it, as does the lack of a two-player mode. However, it is an entertaining shooter with a reasonable price-tag and has plenty to offer fans of the genre. If you have fond memories of feeding quarters into an arcade machine during the nineties or blasting enemies out of the skies on your 16-bit console then Graze Counter will be a great addition to your library. For those who are not so sure, there is a free demo available that might be able to help you make up your mind.
Overall, we enjoyed our time with the game and while it falls a little short of being a classic, it definitely doesn’t fail to entertain. Super Comboman contains some great ideas, but is let down by less than stellar gameplay. Games such as Guacamelee! And Aces Wild have already demonstrated how great titles in the platform brawling genre can be, but Super Comboman doesn't quite live up to expectations. The controls are the biggest source of frustration and the steep difficulty curve also feels more like a punishment than a challenge.Gameplay: Lots of potential, but let down by frustrating controls and a steep difficulty curve.Graphics: The sticker style visuals is an interesting and unique choice.Sound: Not bad, but a little repetitive. Dead End Job is a twin-stick shooter where players take control of Hector Plasm, a ghost exterminator on a mission to save his mentor’s soul. To accomplish this Hector will need a lot of cash, but luckily there is no shortage of people willing to pay him to shoot ghosts with his plasma blaster before sucking up the pesky spirits in a vacuum pack.
The procedurally generated levels in this game span several distinct districts and the game is a lot of fun. Dying means losing all your perks, which sucks and the co-op is a bit of a letdown due to the limitations of the secondary character, but overall Dead End Job has a lot to offer.Gameplay: Shoot ghosts to stun them, then suck them up in a vacuum pack.Graphics: Very colorful and there’s a wide range of different ghosts types to encounter.Sound: The soundtrack fits the style of the game perfectly and there’s even a neat intro theme song. In Sakura Shrine Girls you step into the shoes of Toru, a young priest-in-training, who gets more than he bargained for when following in the footsteps of his grandfather. Toru has always been a skeptic, but when he encounters two guardian sprits at the shrines he is supposed to maintain his whole world is turned upside down. Sakura Shrine Girls features decent art, but the story is fairly predictable and the characters not that memorable.
It is still an entertaining read and you can pick which one the girls Toru ends up with, but don’t expect to be blown away by anything.Gameplay: Not bad, but unfortunately quite predictable.Graphics: The artwork is lovely, but sprites and CGs are limited to only two characters.Sounds: No voice acting, but the soundtrack is quite good. The storyline in Loren the Amazon Princess really sucked me in and the cast of memorable characters kept me hooked.
The turn based combat also turned out to be surprisingly fun and the game has a ton of replay value. Hopefully with the Steam release the game will receive the attention that it deserves and open the flood gates for more Winter Wolves titles.Gameplay: A very nice fusion of visual novel and role playing.Graphics: Although there is no animation the artwork is beautiful.Sound: Good sound effects and some very memorable tunes. Crime Secrets: Crimson Lily is a hidden object game with some interesting clue hunting scenes and a story that, for once, isn’t steeped in the paranormal.
It is however also a very short game and can be completed with ease by anyone familiar with the genre. Provided you don’t mind the lack of challenge there is still fun to be had with the game, but unfortunately there is nothing really remarkable about it.Gameplay: Hunting for clues and not just hidden objects is a nice feature.Graphics: The locations are detailed, but a little limited.Sound: Average music and the voice acting could also have been better in spots.
Warhammer: Chaosbane is an isometric action role playing game that is set in the Warhammer Fantasy Battles Universe. It offers four diverse characters to play with and also allows players to join up three other friends either locally or online. The game is really enjoyable, but a bit rough in places, especially in terms of variety and loot. It is fun while it lasts, but currently the amount of end-game content that is available is not as good as it could have been. Hopefully future updates to the game will continue to build on its solid base, but until then it is bound to disappoint some players who expected more depth as well as variety.Gameplay: Great selection of characters and plenty of skills to use on hordes of enemies.Graphics: Very detailed, but it doesn't take long to see everything the game has to offer.Sound: Decent music, but some of the voices could have been much better.
