Pixel Slayer

This game would've been nice if it had some originality to it, however it is the same thing as idle shapes, same interface, the only difference is, it swaps out shapes for "monsters" with hp so rather than just dragging the mouse across to collect you have to flail your mouse at it over and over depending on how many upgrades you get. Oh yes, to circumvent idle shapes quick gameplay issue this game added hp that increases with every upgrade so you really have to focus a lot of efforts on damage and gold boosts to avoid wrist injury while trying to progress through this. I'm not sure the game engine they're using for this but its the same one that offers fullscreen, windowed and borderless but no adjustment to actual resolution... got a feeling this will be the current phase for idle games... This game i do not recommend if you've played idle shapes... itll just give you a wrist ache trying to progress... if your determined to play through id recommend getting some mouse recording software to drag across the screen cause your wrist will get tired in about 5 minutes of gameplay.

Pixel Slayer isn't really a proper game, it's just a lazy 2D browser/Flash-tier "number incrementer" game where the object of the game is to increase the in-game currency by clicking, and sometimes buying things that increase the rate at which your currency/score goes up. It's an incredibly shallow game loop, to the point you might as well just run a program that does "i=i+1; print i" and watch the numbers go up automatically, and just watch it. You'd get the exact same outcome. If this sounds completely mindless, you're not wrong. This one has a little twist in that the clicking is largely replaced by swiping the mouse pointer over the various things you would otherwise be clicking on. And, as happens amazingly often when looking at amateur shovelware like this, just because it's a novel idea, doesn't mean it's a good one. Indeed, most of the reviews for this shovelware are from people who genuinely tried to play it (for which I feel bad for them) and as a result ended up with sore arms/hands (for which I also feel bad for them). So, it's pointless amateur number incrementer shovelware. How does it stack up in terms of technical delivery? Terrible! From a technical pers…

2/10 my hand hurts no multi buy of any kind need to swipe across the screen to kill things.... its a pain

Gave me wrist pains after 45 min. And for some reason they capped the level of enemies that can spawn - bet you can't have more than 100? 200? enemies on the screen at once b4 it staight up stops spawning enemies.

This game is a pathetic waste of 3 USD. For an Idle game, it is abysmally slow paced. it is a decent time waster... but in two hours i wasn't able to upgrade my damage at all. I was doing 1 point of damage the entire time. it isn't so bad since the tier 1 monsters could be pumped up to drop more resources... except each time you upgrade the loot drop, the new monster spawns have an increased HP pool. a slim that too five mouse swings now takes ten... then thirty. The wasted time adds up fast. that's okay, you can just buy the auto attack function... except it doesn't exist... or if it did i couldn't get it in 2 hours of play time and by then i was already feeilng my wrist wearing out and i was board and a little miffed. with the time spent on this trash, i would have already had a decent automation loop in any other idle game. do yourself a favor and don't buy this waste of space.
