SKULL CHAINZ is a game which has been extensively praised for its unique concept, which is essentially [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/41100/Hammerfight/]Hammerfight[/url]-but-in-hell. But, actually not, because while the trailer shows mouse movement, I whole-heartedly recommend against it. Instead, grab a controller and get rotating those analog sticks! This game is not for the weak-thumbed. You use your thumb to move your skull around, typically making circular motions so that your skull friend orbits around you. You use any other finger to throw your skull friend, damaging enemies at a range. The game pulls you in with its sleek 3D model-to-pixel look (which kind of reminded me of [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/600130/Valfaris/)]Valfaris[/url], and makes you stay with the interesting gimmick. But is the moment to moment stuff worth it? Probably not. There are a few issues here that hamper the overall experience: Each level has an interesting gimmick. These range from enemies powering up from eating their friends’ remains to grow stronger, to them having their own skullz, to enemies incubating eggs, which in turn spawn more enemies. BUT… each level takes way…

I love physics combat games, too bad they are so rare, but SKULL CHAINZ is definitely a good one! Roguelike flair is fun, although some combinations are brutally broken (as expected from roguelikes). Didn't used the Throw that much either, love me some swing and bonk. Bosses and levels are varied enough to be entertaining. The artstyle is also great! I noticed the dev is an artist, and his art kicks ass, As for the game, the art here did not disappoint, the enemies look like clay models, and I am all up for it! It's a short game, but for the asking price, this is an easy recommendation. Make more games pls :) If you like this one, you should definitely try Sigma Impact and also the olde Hammerfight.

Great physics skill based game, helpful power ups and a classic difficulty curve (get good at it or leave). Final boss is awesome. Visual aesthetics are amazing and sound has great style.
