❂ Hexaluga ❂ Weapon and Shield ☯

terrible

Scummy game, used to be 10$ on sale for 2, is now 259$ on sale for 25$. Also it's pretty bad, there is no logic for how long you can fly and sometime your sword get stuck inside wood multiple time in a row.

Puts your Steam Calculator value up, but in fact, it's a piss game.

Making a lazy, barely functional piece-of-♥♥♥♥-not-really-a-game is one thing. Making something which requires clicking and dragging without bounding the cursor to the window and no option for a fullscreen is next level brain rot. And you get Windows, Linux and iOS version if you install it since dev couldn't even figure that out. Getting this at 99,9981% discount makes it almost worth the easy perfect game. Almost. But it is not challenging, it is not difficult, it just feels like the intention was not to engage with this software whatsover.

No game deserves the label of garbage more than this. The controls do not work, both controller and MaK. HUD layout is a mess and the cursor disappears constantly. Achievements do not work so attempt at your own peril. Not sure why it is valued so high, other than to pump numbers I guess.

Hexaluga Weapon and Shield is a small-scale indie experiment developed by Hede and Hexaluga mines and published by Hede that builds its identity around an unusual idea: what if a weapon and a shield became the heroes of their own fantasy adventure? Set after a climactic battle with a giant titan, the game follows two enchanted relics bound together by a magical chain as they attempt to find their way back to their master, the Father of War. It is a premise that immediately sparks curiosity, leaning into fantasy mythology while avoiding traditional protagonists in favor of a more abstract and mechanical approach to storytelling. Rather than focusing on combat or character progression, the game places nearly all of its emphasis on movement and environmental interaction. Players control either the weapon or the shield, each offering slightly different handling characteristics while remaining permanently connected. The chain between them becomes the centerpiece of the experience, introducing a layer of physics that influences every jump, swing, and obstacle. Traversing the world often feels like solving a puzzle in motion, as momentum and positioning are just as important as timing. T…
