About SUBS: Sharks And Submarines


SUBMARINES ARE FALLING OUT OF THE SKY


Leap from the water, collect ammo and smash helicopters out of the air while front-flipping at 200 RPM. Purchase and equip unique and dangerous upgrades from the shop, and send your enemies some torpedoes (or lasers). Subs are falling from the sky and it’s up to you to destroy them. Put your reflexes to the test, using tight yet simple controls to dodge missiles, collect ammo and rack up kills. Verse a range of enemies and bosses and aim for highscore greatness.

UPGRADES AND UNLOCKS GALORE


Fit your sub with powerful upgrades, causing chaos in the water and sky. With 22+ stackable items to purchase, turn your sub into the ultimate killing machine. Satisfy your grinding needs with 25 levels of unlockable content, featuring plenty of varied submarines, game modes, upgrades, and color palettes.

CHUNKY EXPLOSIONS AND GROOVY JAMS


The rhythm and visual/audio feedback have been a major focus. Each explosion packs a bunch of particles and bits flying everywhere, the menus pop and each element on the game feels alive in a way. The original soundtrack dynamically changes between menus and gameplay situations, adding to each quick and rewarding run.

2 PLAYER CO-OP ACTION


Grab a controller and put your teamwork to the test. With the entire game playable with a friend in drop-in, drop-out co-op, work together to level up and make debris of the enemy. Twice the players, twice the chance of being completely lost in all the carnage.

ALL THE THINGS:

  • 23 distinctive and stackable upgrades from the shop to purchase and equip throughout your run
  • 26 unlockable color palettes
  • 6 unlockable and playable subs, each offering a different play-style
  • 5 modes (regular, hard, support only, combo rush, and frenzy)
  • 3 Randomized bosses, all really big and really angry
  • Controller support (Player 1 only)
  • Local drop-in co-op to test all relationships
  • Frequent content updates
  • Bunch of achievements for the nerds
  • An original groovy retro soundtrack
  • UFOs?
  • Murder Noah on his Ark
  • An acceptable framerate
  • Mad flips
  • Graphics that will push your system to its limits

Well, what to say. This is definitely worth the 5€ it asks you. The gameplay is just inventive, and it will asks you to get every brain cell to focus on what's happening. There's a lot of really cool mechanics, the shop is great, the humor is great, everything is. This is definitely a 11/10, plus the game is sure promising for the local multiplayer. Bravo!

2 Major problems. #1 Once you "start" the game there is no options menu, or even any way to quit the game other than alt+f4? I don't know, maybe I'm completely blind. Considering the otherwise polished and high quality game I don't understand how this is possible. #2 The game starts off WAAAAAAAY too slow and easy. Everytime you die and start a new run the first 5-10 minutes are mind numbingly boring and easy with no way to speed things up while you are waiting for enemys and things to spawn. This might be resolved once you unlock further modes, but after an hour I still only have the first mode unlocked and I have no idea how much further in the progression I will unlock the rest, but I can't force myself to be bored for potentially another hour+ ------------------------ Aside from these 2 extremely major problems. The game looks, sounds, and plays great.

Although the basic game content is Ok and price is cheap, still give negative review here. This game is buggy, some attack could kill player in one hit (do multiple hit at once), crash issue, graphic issue etc. The start up is very slow, and player have to deal it in every run. Player have to farm huge scraps to unlock contents, it's very boring.
