Ice Demon

This game really brings out that feeling of sitting down and playing a game to the point where you master it! I've been playing (and enjoying) it since even before released on Steam and seeing it change and improve over time was a treat. That being said, though Steam says I only have like 2.5 hrs played as of writing this, I can assure you I probably have closer to like 20-30 hours due to playing a standalone download version of the game. The controls and game feel: I have to say, the controls feel tight, responsive and most importantly they aren't overly complex. This leads to the played being able to really latch onto moves they feel the most comfortable with, but mix things up with easily inputted alternate moves to compensate or adapt to different situations. It's not an easy game, but that's because the point is to see yourself grow even if you manage to defeat 5 more enemies than last time or last for one more minute! Sound and Visuals: It's meant to be an arcade experience and it delivers on that! Catchy music, distinct enemy designs and crunchy sound effects help make this game addicting to repeat and repeat. If you arcade style beat-em ups with a real feeling to maste…

Ice Demon is a 2D retro pixel platformer/brawler that's been slapped together with the godawful GameMaker Studio video game construction kit from Yoyogames. The game offers a very generic brawling experience with retro pixel "ice" theme because that's what's going to make retro pixel "art" appealing again... right? Nah. They chose to use obsolete retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. Resolution and controls are locked. These flaws push this game far below minimum acceptable standards for PC. The game is fairly slack with sloppy controls and a generally dissatisfying experience. GameMaker Studio is a very poor quality game construction kit, and unsurprisingly results in products that have little to no value as games, especially when compared to the work of professional developers who create genuine products for gamers. Using a video game construction kit requires little to no talent or skill as a game developer. Very often, GameMaker Studio is used to make shovelware and lazy cash grabs, although in this case the ga…

Игра "Ice Demon" — это аркадный экшн с элементами головоломок, где игрок борется с ледяным демоном, разрушая ледяные башни. Графика минималистичная, но яркая, а звуки добавляют напряжения. Управление интуитивное, но сложность растёт быстро. Плюсы — увлекательный геймплей и оригинальная идея, минусы — короткая кампания и ограниченные механики. Подойдёт фанатам быстрых аркад.

Great sprite animation! I really liked the effort you put in to creating a cool environment and unique enemies. This along with the versatile set of moves you get allow for intricate gameplay! the controls, however, were pretty tough to deal with. all in all, good game!
