Pumpkin Death Garden

Went into this thinking it'd be an obvious negative review due to the mediocre visuals, but honestly it's not that bad and it's free. The beginning can be quite tedious - I think making the upgrade that speeds up the game unlocked at the start of the game would remedy this. There are few balance issues - the wasp has a bit too much health and the shotgun is hands down the best weapon. Overall was a decent way to kill a little bit of time.

The most amazing life changing game ive ever played. You see I live in a pumpkin patch but recently its been more of just a _______ patch. No pumpkins, you know? Dang bugs keep takin' em'! This game has given me years worth of professional training in just 1 and a half hours. I know just how to doge an ant, weave out of the way ot a wasp. Ive tangoed with termites, flown with flies, and shimmied with slugs. But no longer. These bugs will no longer dance on me. Oh no, this is different. I can fight back.... Im the dance king now. As i go up on the stage to give my speech i look in the crowd... I see them all, all the bugs that ive stepped on to get here, everyone that bugged me, all my competition, all the very same wasps that used to laugh at me and shove me down... But I don't laugh, i don't point no, for im the better man. Instead I thank everyone who helped me get this achievement. I reach out and shake hands with a giant ant. A single tear rolls down his exoskeleton of a face. He breaks down in tears and I console him, I tell him its okay. He mans up and we walk out of this place together as something new. Not enemies, no... we've grown close. We. Are. The. "Pumpkin Death Party…

I grabbed this because I thought it would be a quick and easy game to 100%. I was wrong, its a great game but it takes a little bit of skill and a good chunk of time to get all the achievements.

«Pumpkin Death Garden» — атмосферный хоррор с уникальным геймплеем. Погружение в мир мистических тыкв и смертельной опасности оправдано захватывающей атмосферой. Графика стильная, но с лёгкой примитивностью, что добавляет игре мрачной эстетики. Основная идея — выживание в лабиринте, где каждая тыква скрывает ловушку или врага. Плюс — оригинальная механика и напряжённые моменты. Минус — короткий сюжет и ограниченное количество уровней. Подойдёт фанатам жанра, ценящим атмосферу больше, чем глубину сюжета.

I think this has the same arcade appeal as flash games of yore. Everything works as it should. Plenty of upgrades for meta progression. In another universe with better art and music and an autofire option this could have been vampire survivors a few years earlier.
