WACKY INFLATABLE FLAMING ARM FLAMING TUBE MAN Sadly, this game just isn't very good. I had assumed that this would be one of those "fun for 5 minutes once and a while" kind of games, but it didn't even make it that far with me. You have simple objectives to do in each level, but there is a timer, and unless I am just missing something, that timer is WAY too short. I wasn't even able to finish the first stage. The game is very simple, it's just wasd into things until they explode, but it just wasn't satisfying (plus the timer ruined it for me). Another small gripe is that on the main menu, neither the options or the credits work, both are just greyed out. No settings for you. I hate to leave a negative review here, but this one didn't do it for me. The premise is funny, and it [i]could[/i] have been a more fun game, but it just kind of fell flat. edit: on second glance, I see that the store page says "controller recommended". Mine wouldn't register for some reason, and the store page *also* doesn't list controller support... so I'm at a loss here. I guess I was missing other controls that probably would have made this game much better... but now I'm good. This could be a "me" thi…

INFLAMED is such a ridiculous little game that I found myself smiling almost immediately. I play as a giant inflatable character taking part in protests against the people exploiting inflatables, and the whole premise is basically an excuse to cause as much goofy destruction as possible. I really like games that are willing to be silly without taking themselves too seriously, and this one absolutely commits to the idea. The controls are built around moving my inflatable character around while using my oversized flailing arms to interact with the environment. I can pick things up, throw them around and generally make a mess of whatever is nearby. I liked how physical everything feels because even simple interactions can turn into complete chaos. The controls take a little getting used to, but once I understand the movement, knocking things around becomes surprisingly satisfying. The campaign is structured around different protests, with each location giving me objectives that contribute to the larger inflatable revolution. I enjoyed this because the levels are not simply about reaching an exit. I have to cause enough disruption and complete the symbolic goals to make the protest s…

"INFLAMED" is a weird and poorly made third person action game where you control an inflatable arm waving marketing sign thing and go on a rampage. Consider this an incredibly weak knockoff of Untitled Goose Game only worse in all respects. I'm not sure if this was put up on Steam as a joke (dumb way to waste $100 if you ask me) or if the developer seriously thought this is a product people would want (it isn't, see below), but it was treated as one. What do you do in the game? It's a consolesque top down action/brawler type of deal, only it sucks. The game is really simple and unambitious in terms of implementation, more of a tech demo or one of those cases where an amateur developer spends $100 to publish something on Steam Direct to see if it's possible. Yes, obviously it's possible. A proof of concept, tech demo, or something that's less than a little blip on the radar isn't offering anything truly valuable to gamers. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D graphics which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice…
