About Cliff Hanger

○Story

A ruby was discovered at an ancient ruin. Compared to other stones excavated at dig sites across the empire this gem appeared to house a far greater power, and with that power, an important role to play.

Chain (player character) sensed the ruby's purpose, and decided to embark on a quest to return it to its original place in the ruins. Her now former allies, however, pursue her to take it back.

○Command the Chains!

The player character (Chain) uses whipping techniques to control chains as her weapon. She has a variety of attacks including not only side slashing, but also a "rising slash" attack and a "slam" attack to damage downed enemies! Her attacks can also be charged by holding the attack button expanding her arsenal of techniques!

○The Background Creates a Thrilling Sensation of Speed

The background graphics are constantly moving forward giving players a thrilling sensation of speed. Enemies are relentless and will keep the player on edge.

○An Expansive Cast of Enemies

As the player progresses through the game, they will encounter a diverse cast of enemies to defeat! Some enemies will fly through the air or perform other special moves pushing the player's skills to the limit! And to turn things up a notch, bosses will enter the fray at the end of each stage! They plan on bringing the pain.

The backgrounds up the tempo and players are well equipped with a plethora of attacks! Test your mettle against a horde of enemies!
Difficulty settings are available to adjust the game for both players that are new to action games and players that want a challenge.

To speak to the other English review I didn't experience performance issues, I'm on a very bad laptop and I was also streaming the game and it ran fine. The game detected my Xbox 360 pad with only the analog stick for movement; it was easy enough to set the dpad to directional keys with Joy2Key. The game isn't very good though. It's basically a clone of a single type of stage from the arcade game Edward Randy. Every level in Cliff Hanger is riding on planes, defeating waves and waves of soldiers. The character moves and attacks very slowly. To compound that, the enemies take too many hits to defeat. Very little variety and just doesn't feel great to play on a basic level.

To be fair the screen shots show off the game perfectly.... thats just all there is to the game. Pretty boring, slow, and it's just the same thing over and over again. the vertical movement isn't high enough half the time and the horizonal movement is practicly nonexistant.

Cliff Hanger, developed and published by syuuyuusya, is a 2D side-scrolling action game that seeks to evoke the nostalgia of classic beat-'em-up titles while delivering a fast-paced, combat-focused experience. The game casts players as Chain, a young warrior tasked with returning a powerful and mysterious ruby to its rightful place, all while being pursued by former allies who seek to claim the gem for themselves. While the story is relatively straightforward, it sets the stage for a game centered on action and skill-based combat rather than narrative depth, offering players a clear motivation for progressing through its stages. The core gameplay of Cliff Hanger revolves around Chain’s chain weapon, which can be swung, thrown, or used to execute a variety of combos and charged attacks. This combat system provides a degree of flexibility and strategy, allowing players to chain together moves for maximum effect or approach encounters with a more methodical style. Despite these mechanics, the execution can feel uneven at times. Animations occasionally lack smoothness, and controls can feel slightly unresponsive, making some encounters feel more frustrating than exciting. However, mas…

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…

We all reach that moment in our lives where we each think to ourselves: "Gee, I really liked the penultimate level of Cliffhanger: Edward Randy, but it would be SOOO much better with ♥♥♥♥ graphics, worse gameplay, and a couple of anime girls!" Well brothers and sisters, our dreams have finally been fulfilled. Now you to, can play a game that rips off a single level from a 1990 arcade game, only THIS TIME it looks like it was made in Flash, and without any of the things that made it impressive or fun three decades ago!
