Holua's Arcades

not worth $4.99. it's crap! all the games are too difficult and glitchy and worst of all there are no save points in any of them. it's 2023. there should atleast be a way to save your place in games. capcom arcade has the save feature in games

This review is specifically for the "Don't Mess with Rick" Beat Em Up. Visual Shock (Graphics: 4/5) Pros: - The levels are bright and colorful but most importantly the characters stand out and are easy to see. - The animation is smooth and well done, attacks are easy to read which is extremely important in a game requiring usage of defense mechanics. - The character designs are decent and stand out well enough albeit not as memorable as the classics. Cons: - The only downside is that some levels aren't as interesting to look at but, since there's only 4 levels this isn't too bothersome. Speed Shock (Gameplay 3/5) Pros: - The game has an assortment of Punches, Kicks and Special moves that look flashy and feel satisfying to pull off. - Defense mechanics like the parry and roll are well done during combat and make the game a little more interesting despite it being very simplistic. - Enemies are tough and challenge you to utilize your defense mechanics, which also contributes to the combat. Even the Bosses are well designed. Cons: - Enemies can interrupt your combo string, while this wouldn't be an issue if only to combat button mashing, it can happen even after following u…

Worst jump system in a beat 'em up game ever. They know this and made a level about platforming

I'm mostly in agreement with everything said by Brawlers Avenue, only playing Don't Mess With Rick. I would give graphics 5/5. I've played a lot of beat-'em-ups with not too many enemies, and I've never seen this many frames of animation before. The fluid enemy movement helps you know when it's safe to attack or when you should parry/roll. This translates to a more skill-oriented game that rewards good reflexes and anticipation. Tip for controller users: I had an issue where both jump and kick were bound to my Stadia controller's B key. This caused unpredictable behavior when I tried to jump, a mixture of jump kicks and jump dash. More importantly, it made the platforming sections impossible. Make sure your buttons all work when you start the game, because you can't rebind the keys in game. I fixed it by moving jump to a shoulder button. On downsides, I agree the roll mechanic is too sensitive. I accidentally did it in combat, often resulting in getting hit, and died to it many times in platforming. I would probably like the option to bind it to a key. Enemies interrupting your combos after fully parrying their combo seems unfair. Also, in my opinion, it's easy to get stunlocked …

Kinda silly collection of arcade games that are ok enough to have fun with. Also has more than the arcade games in it

This collection has some charm on the surface, but bad controls and clunky mechanics land this squarely in “you don’t need to play this” territory.
