I Can See the Future

This is a Russian 2D top down heavy action shooter, ripping off Hotline Miami in gameplay. It's difficult to say whether the game is intentionally a retro pixel game, or just looks bad, because the graphical quality here is very low. The game has punishingly high difficulty, which doesn't make playing it any fun at all. The deficiencies of fixed resolution and fixed controls go hand in hand with the bad gameplay and bad graphics here. People who like Hotline Miami should play Hotline Miami. People who don't like that kind of game will get nothing from this.

bad

I honestly don't remember purchasing this game. Which slightly softens the blow. This game tries to be too many things, and as a result drops the ball repeatedly. At first glance the whole "top down shooter" presentation, has you in mind of Hotline Miami or Nuclear throne. Which highlights the games issues from the tutorial alone. In the HM and NT they have distinct BUT clear art styles. I can tell whats cover, and whats decoration and whats lethal at a glance. Not the case here, the level had a mix of murky tones with varying things that could be cover. The enemies were also murky and obviously didn't have to worry about visibility. The tutorial doesn't actually tell you anything, it just throws you into things. The UI is spread out, which isn't a major sin, but looking off to figure how much targets you have to shoot will get you killed. Your character has a teleport ability, but the cool down isn't made obvious. Your gun ammo is shown, but it doesn't make clear reloading. Your knife can deflect bullets... but again the game doesn't teach you any of this. The bear traps are frustrating. In so far as the enemies are so lethal its hard to keep an eye on their aggress…

A very good, short time killer. Its at a nice balance of difficult but not impossible, though it can take some time to figure out what to do on some levels/achievements and there is not a single tutorial about this game due to how overlooked it is,

Despite how it looks, its surprisingly a very competently and well-made game here, worth a buy [spoiler] Honestly, would love to see Forsen playing this lidl game [/spoiler]

no, just no.
