Since I've been in an INTI CREATES mood, I would like to mention that most of their games are currently on sale.
If you like 2D classic games, either level based, or metroidvanias, there's not many teams around better than these guys.
And, they recently started investing seriously on Steam, with 5 titles released in 10 months, good ports, and a steady flow of updates and patches.
So, here are some quick comments about some of their titles:
I'm currently playing Blaster Master Zero (I'm yet to finish it because Dragon Marked For Death, another of their games, has been stealing my time
), and it's highly recommended for those who enjoy games done in an 8-bit style. I'm having a great time.
It's a metroidvania, but unlike some games in the genre the difficulty is very accessible.
The second game is supposed to be even better:
Then, we have the fun, and totally not-classic Castlevania (level based) in all but the name:
If you like later Mega Man games (Zero, ZX), you should have a lot of fun with Azure Striker Gunvolt.
Since I played it at launch, the game was updated with a 60fps mode, HD assets, and more.
Do note: the last boss will probably make you lose some hair (I know I did
)
And, there's a spin-off that's even better, their first title released on Steam day and date with other platforms:
If you prefer your Mega Man-likes in 8-bit, the Mighty Gunvolt spin-off series may be for you.
The first game is short, and relatively basic, but for the asking price it's well worth a look:
And the sequel is better in every sense, and a great buy for fans of the classic Mega Man series:
Last, but not least, if you are
lashman, you love your anime, and have VR hardware, this is the game for you:
