About Buckler 2
BUCKLER 2, originally titled Rosefury: The Golden Plains, is an action-packed platformer with a few roguelike elements sprinkled in. You can play as a wide variety of unique characters, each with their own weapons, styles, and personalities. Travel across a brand new world, fight some baddies, dodge some hazards, and maybe make a few friends along the way. Shield-bash your way to victory and take back what's rightfully yours!
A group of unlikely heroes bands to together to embark on a journey across Sector Omega, the last thing standing between the Olives and victory. However, the Roses will make sure they take the last area of uncovered land for themselves and will do anything to ensure they are triumphant.
With an army of savage killers fighting against our heroes, they will have no choice but to use powerful weapons to wipe them out. Venice, our silent scarved protagonist, wields The Buckler, a mighty shield with offensive capability. Using The Buckler and a wide variety of unique weapons, Venice and his friends are ready to take on the Roses and seize Sector Omega once and for all!
What can you do in this game? Well, there's all sorts of stuff to do! You can:
...And so much more!
Long ago, somewhere in the Goodbar Galaxy, there was a planet called Regroja. On this planet dwelled Regrojans, a race designed to create love. However, due to their curiosity, they stumbled upon a sleeping god, awakening it from its slumber. This diety cursed the Regrojans with two plagues, each changing the mind and bodies of Regrojans, eventually splitting them into two factions. Rising tensions between the Regrojans lead to a worldwide race war, and the once united Regrojans turned their backs on one another and killed solely in the name of hate. This continued to about 1000 years, until the day they remembered their purpose.
Do you think you have what it takes to leave every square inch of this world untouched? What will you find on your adventures? How far will your luck take you? Who will live? Who will die? I leave that up to you.

This platformer is very good as far as the story, missions, characters, and map. It has 2 modes, an arcade game that works like a multiplayer, and a story mode. I think it is priced well for the content and is worth getting the game. Overall, I think it should be rated 8/10 overall for this game.3 found this helpful
I love the premise of this game and most projects that this developer has put out, but sadly, this game is too jank for a positive review. Go watch a playthrough on youtube and save those 4 dollars for another AploveStudio game2 found this helpful
This is an amazing game with a really cool design and color palette, the controls are kinda hard, but I'd definitely like to see more about this game, or new games from the same creator2 found this helpful
BUCKLER 2 is a compact yet surprisingly earnest indie action-platformer that blends retro design sensibilities with light roguelite structure and an understated narrative core. Developed and published by AploveStudio, the game clearly draws inspiration from classic 2D platformers, embracing pixel art visuals, straightforward controls, and a focus on skill-based movement and combat. Rather than chasing large-scale ambition, BUCKLER 2 positions itself as a focused experience built around repetition, mastery, and personality, offering players a modest but thoughtfully constructed journey through a strange and symbolic world. You take control of Venice, a quiet protagonist who carries a buckler that serves as both a defensive tool and an offensive weapon. This shield-centric design gives the game its identity, encouraging close-quarters encounters and careful positioning rather than long-range combat or flashy abilities. Enemies are designed to challenge timing and awareness, pushing players to learn patterns and react precisely rather than brute-force their way forward. Platforming plays an equally important role, with levels filled with hazards, vertical sections, and enemy placemen…
It has a cool idea but its super weird and unclear blah blah blah, theres also a bunch of crashes that make playing really annoying, if the creator made a sequel or something maybe it could be good, buckler 2 isnt good in its current state though
very fun game. There are a couple minor bugs but the only actual bad one is the game can sometimes crash if any of the miniboss roses deal contact damage which has screwed me out of the good end twice now. other than that, game is an absolute blast to play. simple and fun
