Valiant Attempt

That walking sound is atrocious. The settings menu doesn't even work, and the game is just one level.

Is this even a real game? I was done in less than 5 minutes... Went through it 3 times to make sure I wasn't missing something, clearly I wasn't and it was just a waste of time.

A valiant attempt to create a game was made, haha^^ The reason why the review count is so low is time. - the time it takes to notice that the game is not good is kinda 10 seconds - the time it takes to beat the game is 5 minutes - the time it takes to be able to review is 10 minutes So i had to keep the game open for a few more minutes to write this. And i did it for you, to make an informed decision to spend zero dollars or not. Very unpolished, very janky. And btw. mr creator, the reason why i gave it a chance is that at least it is not Ai slop.

One level, no respawning and a broken settings menu. What else can you ask for in a steam game. I feel like not even the developer play tested it. 1/10 would recommend!

Prompted to use a controller when starting the game, immediately shown the letter E to interact. I actually like the top down low poly concept that's going on here, but this isn't even a demo. The settings button doesn't actually work, the controls are not the greatest, and its about 7 1/2min worth of "content" I think if this had a proper half-year of TLC it could be a decent game. I do not recommend picking this up, but I'm hoping that with a positive review that I instill inspiration and dedication to the dev(s).

Valiant Attempt is a small free action RPG that caught my attention because it is trying to mix real time combat with a party of companions that actually react to what I am doing. I play as a displaced noble who has ended up working as a mercenary in a world that has been torn apart by war. The game is set in a low poly fantasy world, and I spend my time travelling through the remains of different nations, fighting enemies, talking to people and trying to work out what is really going on. It is important to mention that this is only a demo, so I am judging what is actually available rather than treating it like a complete RPG. The combat is the part I found most interesting. I can use melee attacks, blocks, spells and projectiles, and positioning matters because the fighting uses physical collisions rather than just turning everything into simple number exchanges. My companions are also supposed to react to what is happening around them, while enemies can work together instead of always running straight at me. I like the idea because it gives the fights a more active feeling, although the combat still feels like something that could use more refinement. There are moments where I c…
