Aegis Defenders

Aegis Defenders (2018) A unique type of game that combines platforming and tower defense. I appreciate the idea, but I feel it would be better if some of the levels were platforming and some were tower defending. You are also forced to switch between characters a lot to complete the platforming part of the game, something that would be a lot better with people in co-op. The game does have split screen co-op so it's much better if you can find somebody to play with, its pretty miserable on your own. When you have to set defenses for waves of enemies you have a time limit and limited resources (normal for tower defense games). I wish you could zoom out and see the entire map and better enemy pathing to see how they run towards their objectives. The story is interesting and the characters are nice. It's alright for what it is, but I prefer one over the other when it comes to two different game modes combined into one. 7/10

I usually don't write reviews, heck, writing a review completely in english feels even weirder, taking into account how most of y'all will probably dismiss mine due to a few ESL slips. But still, taking into account how under the radar this game has been after all those years, it felt necessary to at least express my thoughts in a manner that would reach the largest amount of peps possible I gotta say, this is one of the games that made me wish steam had a "neutral" or a "ranking" system. It has lots of issues, as expect by a low budget, first-entry indie game, but at the same time, it has tons of soul into it, in this day and age, passion projects like this are quite rare, however, that doesn't excuse some of the flaws this game has. [h1] The Good [/h1] It's quite a novel concept, a hybrid between a plataformer and a tower defense game, with a colorful cast, lovely spritework, and an alright setting with a few interesting concepts sprinkled here and there. Could be better, could be worse. For me, the real selling point of this game is: Coach Co-op, it has tons of supports for two players sharing the same screen, heck, taking into account how most of the puzzles and defense seg…

Aegis Defenders is a surprisingly fun mix of Metroidvania exploration and tower defense that keeps both genres feeling fresh. The pixel art is beautiful, the characters each have unique abilities, and the defense sections are challenging without becoming frustrating. Whether you're playing solo or with a friend, it's an enjoyable experience with satisfying progression and plenty of charm. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different.

aprocura de um game díferente do meu gosto. Encontro esse game, que no começo achei frustrante e monotono até dps de umas 1h e meia, comacei a tomar gosto pelo game, dai pra frente o monotono era disafiador, gostei muito, mesmo sendo um genero diferente do meu gosto. Ali pro final do game tive que colocar no eazy, jogo dificil do krl....

You can decide on which difficulty you'd like to play. It is kind of a tower defense game, once you find something worth protecting. You got two characters and must combine their abilities to proceed further. Either as a singleplayer or in Coop. It's not my kind of game, but you find your way in quite easily. The ressource management is quite easy, at least in easy mode they respawn endlessly, so you cannot get stuck by placing your builds in the wrong place. It's likelevels you complete so you won't have to run back and forth endlessly, it's very straight foreward. If you like this kind of games, it might be worth a try.

I've seen a lot of negative reviews regarding the balance of this game. I don't know. I'm early game still, but I've really enjoyed playing through the levels, and even replaying them once I learn enemy/wave patterns to properly set up defenses at the end of the levels to unlock everything. I really enjoy playing this co-op, but I don't think it's necessary. Maybe I will change my opinion later in the game, but so far through act 2, the art, music, story, and gameplay have all been a joy!
