It's good simple game, but it's a little deeper than you may think. There is no tutorial (big omission), so first of all I want to talk briefly about gameplay. You can walk, jump, cling the wall, do a walljump and shoot and dash in any direction.[spoiler]A little tip, if you stay on the ground, you can cancel shot charging by pointing your scope down.[/spoiler] Dash is not only movement option, but also defensive, because if you dash through a flying arrow, you take it into your quiver. And in addition you can steal an arrow from the opponents quiver if you dash through him. It all makes playing at close-range a lot more interesting than just "who shot first" and generally makes gameplay more solid. Now let's talk a bit about the bad. Stages are few, only three sets of 5-6 pieces each, while they are not shining a lot of variety and you can't even choose a specific stage for some reason. You can play only locally with one friend, although matches for several people (and online matches) would be very appropriate. [spoiler]But remote play, in a sense, fixes part of this problem.[/spoiler] The bonuses that you can get from chests are only five options: two different arrows, bounc…5 found this helpful
[quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/b] "Archery Showdown" is one of literally thousands of creatively bankrupt asset flips infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere.[/quote] This is a basic Digital Homicide asset flip, the developer ripped off a bunch of assets (example: https://eduardscarpato.itch.io/archer-animations-pixel-art-2d is the archer character, likewise all the tilesets etc were also ripped off) and slapped them on a basic GameMaker Studio platformer game template. The only weird thing is he forgot to charge money for this. You can't get paid for someone else's work unless you remember the price tag, but who am I to tell creatively and morally bankrupt asset flippers how to run their scams? So, "Archery Showdown" is partially or completely made up of stock assets, "borrowed" from asset stores and free asset websites. Little, if anything in this game is the creation of the "developer". This is a solid reason not to bother with this garbage. While there's no up front price for this asset flip, the other problem with asset flips is that when developers aren't capable of doing their…2 found this helpful
This game it's fine: simple, straightforward, and designed to be enjoyed locally with a friend. However, there’s one thing that could greatly enhance the game: an online multiplayer mode. This would eliminate the need to rely solely on local play or Remote Play Together, which isn’t always the most convenient option. Being able to connect directly with someone from anywhere would add tremendous value to the game. That said, it’s not bad. It does its job, it’s an acceptable option for spending some time.
