Hellbrella

+Semi OK movement/gameplay; does something uniqueish -Visually unclear -Non-standard resolutions available, but not e.g. 4k. Why would you even offer 2560x1080? -Levels felt grindy, repeat the same thing. Scoot on enemies. After the fifth similar room with nothing changing, I was already bored. = Disappointed. I would not recommend the game for myself, so I won't do it to you either.

Game can feel repetitive and a bit boring at times, I gave it my best shot but I just couldn't get interested. Good concept but could use some work.

If this game is like $1-3 on sale, sure maybe try it. It's OK, but far from perfect. The gameplay design feels kind of flawed. You attack enemies by dashing at them, shooting at them (with limited ammo that refills by killing enemies), or you can float down on an enemy while pointing your umbrella at them. The dash attack feels sloppy. It's super easy to dash at a enemies and get hurt at the end of the dash. Maybe you started too soon and didn't go all the way through them. Or as you flew through the group of enemies you shifted them around enough that you didn't clear them and get hurt. It just doesn't feel clean. Since it's really your primary attack you're gonna suicide all the time. You can position yourself above enemies and use gravity to pogo on them to kill them. So if you fly at the bottom of the screen you'll teleport to the top. Go through the right of the screen you'll end up on the left. And vice versa for both. But if you pogo on an enemy close to the top of the screen, you'll pogo and pop up on the bottom of the screen for a second, making the enemies start to move to the bottom. Then fall back through the bottom, teleporting you back to the top. So you kinda …

I've loved hellbrella it was a amazing game one thing is it needs more content I got all the umbrellas quite quickly

Um jogo bom e satisfatório, não é um de se jogar mais de 10 horas, a não ser que no modo infinito, ou vá desbloquear tudo (que precisa matar o boss final com todas as armas).

Unique game. Unusual, fast, and fluent movement, fighting, and vibe. But it was too short. I didn't expect only a single stage, and it ended rather abruptly. There are 5 unique umbrellas with specific in-run upgrades. Each one requires unique gameplay, but I mostly played only the first one you need to unlock - gun umbrella. The second (bubbles) felt too slow and hard to master. The third one unlocked with my first successful run - and I don't feel any drive to continue playing. At least for the gun umbrella, there seems to be only one proper path of choosing in-run upgrades. Nothing else came out worth it. And the end game seems just too chaotic - so I always just spammed maximized area attacks while trying to avoid damage. No way I could move properly in that chaos - I am not saying that wasn't satisfying, though. All the umbrellas/meta upgrades/in-run vendor/upgrades suggest a much longer run and progress to try and master them all. And a bit of story or lore would be fine too; there isn't a single line of it. I guess you are supposed to repeat the runs with new umbrellas and hone your skills after you have finished the game, but without any rewarding in-game progress. I reall…
