Manaya

Manaya is yet another of literally hundreds of lazy amateur 2D retro top-down shooters infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere. I say top down, but I guess you're seeing this from a side view, except there's no gravity, you just sort of hang in the air. The fact there's no functional difference is a damning enough indictment here. So it's a twin-stick style shooter, I'm pretty sure it's not an asset flip because, well, no asset creator would make such a bad game. The gimmick I guess is that your aim reticle is stuck to the bottom of the screen, I don't know if they thought it would make the game better or something, but I can assure you it doesn't. You shoot stuff and then there's a Slay the Spire type encounter chain where you move from level to level, punctuated by the occasional meaningless upgrade shop. This is bad, it's not fun to play, and it's riddled with technical defects. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolu…

This is a great game, however it seems unfinished. There are a few bugs, some of the bosses seem like they need a technical rework and or concept rework, and it overall feels a little bit unfinished. This has great potential though. The upgrades are great, each obstacle has its own merit and degree of challenge depending on the seed, and the sound design is satisfying. However if you want a complete game wait a bit. Although I want to, I can't recommend this game.

Lit. Can you please add quick restart and dlc Edit: ♥♥♥♥ monkey with no defensive mod. eat bullets is so op. make more options? balance

This game is great. It's short, simple, and fun. If you have $3, this is a great way to spend it.

dont bother, lazy cashgrab of a game, controlls are clunky and controller support is missing

A simple little game. I think I got all I could out of it in 30 minutes.
