✦ AI summary

Holodrive is a fast-paced 2D multiplayer shooter with energetic jetpack-based movement and arena combat that players consistently praise for its fun, chaotic gameplay and accessibility. However, the game suffers from a critically low player population, with multiple reviews noting that servers are essentially dead or populated only when playing with a pre-made group of friends, which significantly undermines the multiplayer experience.

Holodrive is an energetic 2D multiplayer shooter that combines arena combat with platforming-style mobility, weapon collecting, character customization, and a deliberately humorous presentation. Developed by BitCake Studio and published by Versus Evil, it revolves around customizable robots called Dummies that use jetpacks, firearms, explosives, and power-ups to tear through compact arenas. Its concept is straightforward, but the emphasis on movement and environmental interaction gives the action considerably more personality than a basic side-scrolling deathmatch game. Movement is arguably the most distinctive part of the experience. Every Dummy has a jetpack, allowing players to quickly reposition themselves, attack from unexpected angles, escape dangerous encounters, and move vertically through the stages. Ramps and strategically positioned power-ups add further opportunities for sudden changes in momentum. The arenas themselves are not merely decorative spaces either. Teleporters can throw players directly into another confrontation, while anti-bullet barriers provide temporary protection and can be exploited to surprise opponents. Consequently, learning a map becomes an impor…

Holodrive is a fast little multiplayer shooter that mixes 2D platforming with guns, jetpacks and a ridiculous amount of explosions. I am controlling a robot called a Dummy and running around arenas trying to blow up the other side while grabbing weapons and using the map to my advantage. The basic idea is very easy to understand, but the jetpack movement gives it a different feel from a normal 2D shooter. I can fly around, use ramps, move through different parts of the arena and get back into the action almost immediately after dying. It is simple, chaotic and very easy to jump into. The movement is probably what I like most. Every Dummy has a jetpack, so I am not stuck fighting entirely on the ground. I can quickly move around the arena and use the vertical space to get behind enemies or escape when things get too dangerous. There are also teleporters and barriers that can change how I approach a fight. I like having these extra movement options because they make the arenas feel more active than a basic run and gun game. When I get comfortable with the movement, I can start using the map itself as part of my strategy instead of just looking for somewhere to stand and shoot. The …

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
