Liveza: Death of the Earth

Just a terrible platformer. Far better ones you can get on steam than this.

[h1] Lemme tell you this... the game sucks. [/h1]

2D indie platformer where you explore ruined locations, fight enemies, and unlock new abilities to progress ✅Good soundtrack ✅Infinite lives (respawn at the beginning of the level) ✅Ability to continue from the last unlocked level after restarting the game ❌No options (e.g., windowed mode) ❌Poorly done retro graphics ❌Low enemy variety ❌Dangerous obstacles appear as background elements ❌The gun barrel counts towards the character's collision radius ❌"SUPERHOT Mode" deletes game progress ❌The game's price is too high ❌❌ Verdict: [b] Terrible [/b], [strike] Bad [/strike], [strike] Mediocre [/strike], [strike] Decent [/strike], [strike] Good [/strike], [strike] Very Good [/strike] (Rating scale for short games, retro indie simulator games, and similar) [quote]If you'd like to see more of my reviews, you can find them on my curator page: [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45994324/admin/reviews_manage/]CuratorKingViking[/url] and on my group: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/CuratorKingViking]GroupKingViking[/url] If you have any questions about my reviews, feel free to ask.I'm happy to answer them.
