i really tried brother. but your game is broken. its very very broken. i dont care that its free, im genunely asking: why are you keeping this on the store? for what purpose? do you hate yourself and like getting these reviews or something? dude the game is unbeatable and im pretty sure i broke the sequencing without even trying, i ended up having to redo certain sections multiple times in a row on a single life, as if the game was a record full of scratches skipping back to earlier tracks. jesus dude take this off the store! LOL

A surrealist art game depicting the horrors of game development.

Yea, even for a free game with "Mostly Negative" as its review numbers this was, to say the least, terrible. It took me all of 9 minutes of playtime to get compleatly stuck, find a whole room with broken light and textures and get hit with 1 really bad "jumpscare" Gameplay : 1/10 Horror Aspects : 0/10 Story : 0/10 I really have nothing else to say Overall : 0/10

Игра Dayscream - это яркий и хаотичный экшен-платформер, который сразу же подкупает своей пиксельной графикой и безумным темпом. Управление довольно простое, но требует точности, ведь окружение постоянно меняется, подбрасывая новые испытания и врагов. Сюжет, хотя и не является сильной стороной игры, неплохо справляется с ролью связующего звена между динамичными уровнями. Главная фишка - это скорость и непрерывность. Здесь нельзя останавливаться ни на секунду! Нужно постоянно двигаться, прыгать, стрелять и адаптироваться к обстановке. Саундтрек отлично дополняет этот бешеный ритм, добавляя адреналина. Игра может показаться сложной поначалу, и умирать придётся часто. Но именно это и затягивает – с каждой попыткой ты учишься, становишься быстрее и начинаешь предвидеть опасности. Это игра, которая вознаграждает за настойчивость и реакцию. В целом, Dayscream – это отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет быстрый, динамичный и хардкорный платформер с пиксельной графикой и забойным саундтреком. Если вы любите сложные игры, где нужно быстро реагировать и точно прыгать, то Dayscream вам точно понравится. Не ждите глубокого сюжета, здесь главное - адреналин и бесконечный экшен.

Sekiro cheap: what our price record shows, and what to avoid

Search Sekiro cheap and the results are keyshop listings, not a store discount. Our three-month price record explains the gap, and why so few live offers changes the advice.
