Stabby Machine

"Stabby Machine" is a simple "I can't believe it's not Adobe Flash" tier arcade action game slapped together with the blight on gaming that is GameMaker Studio (responsible for an immense amount of amateur shovelware and zero smash hit games). All you do in this game is flail about attacking various spheres. There's only one mildly interesting mechanism, you need to balance the number of enemies you can take... too few and you run out of batteries then the game ends. Which, unfortunately, is the best thing that can happen to you, because then it's over. The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?). Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs to pretend they're mobile phones or Commodore 64s. It's free... now, but it wasn't before. The developer was charging $2 USD for this. Price barriers, especially on low quality products, can be a direct cause of failure. It's a nice gesture for the game to be given away for free, but it also tells us that the game wasn't good enough to succeed as a paid product. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam…

"Stabby Machine" — простая, но агрессивно-веселая игра, где игрок превращается в машину, прокалывающую всё на своем пути. Графика минимальная, управление элементарное, но захватывающая механика и сатирический подход к "врагам" (всё, что попадает в поле зрения) делают её забавной. Однако повторяемость сценариев и отсутствие глубины быстро надоедают. Подойдет для коротких сессий и любителей нестандартного юмора. Не рекомендую для претензий к качеству.

[b]Stabby Machine[/b] is a nice Indie Arcade game that is fast paced. It features 4 different modes. You can collect coins by killing bosses and buying cosmetics and power-ups. The big downside for me is that two achievements are broken- "Illumination" and "I am Glorious". I haven't tested the "Quadra King" achievement. It's a free game so try it.
