Bloody Paws Unleashed

Really nicely done remake. The game feel is still 8-bit home computer side scroller, but the mechanics feel way better and there is much less jank and clunk. Nice challenging gameplay

controls are janky and don't respond correctly when pressed 45% of the time. MANY times that I have pressed the attack button only for the character to do absolutely NOTHING walking off the edge of a platform also prevents you from attacking apparently, why can't I just use a normal air attack if I walk off a platform? I got to the forest and gave up. the hitboxes are bad, the controls are bad and I have no patience left to go through the rest of the game to find out if it gets any better. But based on my experience, I doubt it.

This game seriously needs an easy mode. You get weaker attacks when hit and have to redo progress when you die, unlike most beat 'em ups. Good luck getting past the first level as there are random balls that roll into you while you attack as well.

Holy crap this game is bad and that's mainly cause of the movement. It you you want to do a 2D action platformer then your character has to be able to move smoothly not janky as all hell. You get so much crap thrown at you at the later levels and your suppose to have a fast response but you cant not with these movements. every death I got felt cheap not fair. It sucks because everything else about the game I like.

A much better game than the developer's first attempt. It remakes an obscure and pretty lame Spanish ZX Spectrum game (any videos I found have it completed in less than 10 minutes) whose only memorable element is the opening picture of a bird-flipping werewolf*. But it does what a good remake does: every detail of the original seems to have been carefully studied to update it for the better. It's not the cleanest pixel art around but it's a great update of the original graphics (some sprites seem to actually be the original ones edited), like an Amiga version that never was. A little detail I like is how Bloody folds his ears when crouching. The little story the game has is conveyed through pretty good comic-style illustrations in place of the scant text of the original. By the way, to my surprise even the plot has been kept the same, ending included! There's a reason all bosses except the final one are statues brought to life: they simply are statues originally, background elements that stand out more than others. That alone says a lot about how much the stages have been expanded. A lot of standing scenery objects (poles, trees) can even be knocked down onto enemies. About those…

Definitely a fun remake! It add so much that it's pretty much it's own beast, pun intended. This is a slow an methodic brawler, and works well as one. Everything in thos game scream of the nineties in a fun way, your moveset is limited but the levels and ennemies are designed accordlingly, and it remains satisfying to throw witches at each others or to slash away at mob and bosses! It's not a long game but do a good job from beginning to end. I recommend! Also, pretty much check out all that this developper did, commercial or otherwise, I've only seen winners in it all so far!
