    I just released Gothic Survival, a reverse bullet hell and my first game!

    Posted: 30 Apr 2022 01:31 AM PDT

    Gothic Survival is a fast, intense reverse bullet hell in a dark fantasy setting.

    Here's the Play Store link:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.misha.gothic_survival

    And a little YouTube gameplay trailer I made:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4m962tKJsM

    The last few months I've really enjoyed playing Magic Survival (Android) and Vampire Survivors (Steam). Both are superb games, but I wanted something a little more fast-paced that I could still play on the train to work. Gothic Survival is my attempt at a mash-up.

    There isn't a whole lot of content and progression yet, but I'd be honored to have some folks try it out.

    It's my first game, and I definitely underestimated how much hard it is to balance a game to be fun yet challenging. I apologize if things are too easy or too difficulty, but the more people play, the faster I can figure out how to improve things.

    The game is built using Flutter and the Flame game engine, which means there's an iOS version too. Note that the iOS app is currently in review and will get updated to match Android soon.

    Feel free to ask any questions (technical ones as well), leave feedback, or suggest changes!

    Edit: A free-to-move joystick option will be in beta promptly, and released in the next day. Thank you to everyone who mentioned how important it was. Please keep the feedback coming!

    Sorry for the crappy link but I can't figure out how to do it on mobile. This is the only Android game I've truly enjoyed in years. It's puzzle and RPG and story all wrapped in one, it's unique, it's no ads once you buy it and it's SO worth the money. And I've played it 10 times now. I wish there was something similar. Can you recommend something?

    (Seriously play the game. It's great.)

    What is a reliable source to learn about the best Android games?

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 08:14 PM PDT

    Sorry if this kind of post isn't allowed. But what is the most reliable list or source of information to learn about the best Android games? I couldn't find anything on Metacritic and searching Google turns up a lot of junk. Is there a trusted source? I don't want to sort through all the bad games to find the few high quality ones. Thanks.

    Is there a website that has a full list of games with filters?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2022 10:20 AM PDT

    Trying to find something new to play is hard for me because I'm a fussy bastard when it comes to games. So I was wondering if there's a website that let's you search for games based on certain filters?

    For example, list all RPGs that are offline, no in app purchases, fantasy setting and are free. That sort of thing

    Update on my Exagear archive collection

    Posted: 30 Apr 2022 04:57 AM PDT

    I have uploaded a decent amount of builds to my google drive. It isn't complete yet, but here is a list of builds I have:

    1. Exagear RPG
    2. Exagear Strategies
    3. Exagear with Wine 3.10
    4. Exagear with Wine 6.10
    5. Exagear with Wine 6.14
    6. Exagear with Wine 6.15
    7. All of Coreland's VirtIO+Turnip+Zink builds
    8. Akbarri's Exagear-SU builds with his various versions of the OBB file, plus his Exagear-Clone apks.

    I will have to either span this over multiple google drives, try again with archive.org, or use other file storage providers. I have my eyes on a few more builds, so this archive will expand further.

    [Request] recommend games that require a controller

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 10:26 PM PDT

    Hello android gaming.

    I was considering buying a controller (gamesir x2) for my phone (galaxy s22 ultra). I was trying to figure out what games I might realistically play on it to decide if the controller is worth the purchase.

    I am terrible with virtual buttons, so anything with a d pad or virtual joystick and a few buttons for different attacks I pretty much just dismiss out of hand. I feel like there have been countless games in the last year or so that looked cool but I didn't get because I get frustrated with the face buttons. now I can't remember any of them.

    Please recommend games that benefit from controller. I like platformers, I like Zelda type games. Fps could be okay, but I would want to play single player rather than multi player, will want to play some times with no signal/ blocked on wifi (lunch at work). Plus I suck at fps so competitive won't be fun.

    Paid games are preferred. Free games could be okay, but excessive forced ads or micro transactions i'd rather avoid

    Thanks in advance

    5 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 216)

    Posted: 29 Apr 2022 05:21 AM PDT

    Good news, everyone (dang, I miss Futurama...)! It is time for another round of mobile game recommendations based on the most interesting games I played and that were covered on MiniReview this week. I hope you'll enjoy the read.

    Support these posts (and YouTube content + development of MiniReview) on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NimbleThor <3

    This episode includes a brutal bullet-hell card game (yes, you read that right, haha), a tower defense game with real-time co-op, an adventure game played in total darkness, a fun deck-building dungeon-crawler, and a vehicular combat PvP action game.

    Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below.

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 216 weeks ago here.

    Let's get to the games:

    Heck Deck [Game Size: 92 MB] ($3.49)

    Genre: Card / Bullet Hell - Offline

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by Yousef:

    Heck Deck is a minimalistic but brutal bullet-hell card game where time only moves when we move, and all enemy bullets are represented as cards.

    The game has us control a small blob that we freely move around small one-screen playing-fields to avoid enemy bullets. When we release our finger from the screen, time freezes, allowing us to strategically aim cards from our hand to launch our own attacks. As soon as we start moving again, the chaos then continues.

    Starting off, we are provided a rather limited deck of cards, but if we deliberately take a hit from an enemy, that exact bullet gets added to our deck. Despite losing a life or two in the process, this is the primary way to gain new cards.

    Each of the game's five challenging levels ends with a fight against a boss with unique movement patterns. Thankfully, defeating a boss leads us to a shop where we can acquire a few free cards and pay lives to get more before we then continue.

    The game successfully manages to combine card-based and bullet-hell gameplay - two seemingly incompatible mechanics that somehow work in perfect harmony in Heck Deck. This, and the clear visual cues, make for a satisfying gameplay experience.

    The game's biggest downside is its hardcore arcade-like structure, which means the checkpoints that allow us to start at one of the later levels don't activate before all levels leading up to it has been completed in one run. This might cause some frustration for casual players.

    Heck Deck is a premium game without ads or iAPs that costs $3.49, and lurking behind its cutesy hand-drawn animations and art-style is a difficult yet enjoyable experience for everyone who doesn't mind the checkpoint system.

    33RD: Random Defense [Total Game Size: 207 MB] (Free)

    Genre: Tower Defense / PvP / Co-op / "Random"-defense - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    33RD is a fun strategy tower defense game with both single-player, real-time co-op, and PvP that expands on and improves the RNG-based gameplay popularized by Random Dice.

    Matches take place on a 3x3 board surrounded by a single lane that monsters enter and walk around. To defeat these monsters, we spend gems to spawn random towers, which are represented as cute weapon-wielding animals, at random squares on the board.

    Interestingly, instead of leaving the map, monsters simply continue walking around the board, and if we don't keep the number of total enemies alive below 33, we start losing our ten lives and quickly die.

    While RNG defines which tower spawns where, we still need to be strategic about when to merge units, which units to add to our deck, if or when to randomly relocate all towers, and when to spawn new units. Not to mention the many other systems, such as equipment crafting, a main hero we use to trigger skills, a guild system, animal fusing, and so on.

    New towers are unlocked through a gacha system using gold or premium currency, and they each have unique weapons and stats that fit various playstyles. We can play five co-op and five PvP matches before having to wait an hour to regain tickets but can always continue with the PvE content.

    33RD monetizes through iAPs for a premium currency spent on map skins, gacha pulls, and a subscription that provide benefits such as more PvP tickets and better login rewards. The monetization isn't perfect, but the free-to-play experience remains great, and there are plenty of free gacha pulls.

    While some might not like the level of RNG, I found it to create a fun and unpredictable experience where we're forced to strategize on the fly. If you enjoyed Random Dice, you'll most likely love 33RD.

    Dark Echo [Game Size: 53 MB] ($1.99)

    Genre: Adventure / Horror - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    Dark Echo is a thrilling adventure game set in the total darkness of an underground cave, which forces us to navigate using soundwaves that are visualized on the screen.

    Every sound created as we walk around the cave generates soundwaves that get represented as lines of different colors. These waves obey the real laws of physics by bouncing off of surfaces, which means although we cannot see the actual objects and obstacles that are all around us, we can perceive our surroundings by analyzing the echo created by these waves as we move forward in search of an exit.

    To navigate the cave and avoid threats, we can run, sneak to stay as quiet as possible, clap to generate a lot of waves at the same time, or throw stones to cause audial distractions. The latter becomes especially important in later levels where there are hungry monsters lurking in the dark that can only hunt their prey if they can hear it.

    As we progress through 80 levels, more and more mechanics are added, such as deadly pits, locked doors, moving walls, collapsing passages, water basins, and much more. Some levels require that we run for our life, some demand that we stay quiet and unnoticeable, and others can be solved using whichever approach we deem most suitable. This constant introduction of new mechanics ensures that we're kept occupied till the very end, creating a great gameplay experience.

    Dark Echo is a $1.99 game without ads or iAPs. It is one of those truly unique and surreal experiences everyone should try, especially while sitting in a dark room with headphones on.

    Dungeon Raiders [Game Size: 31 MB] ($3.99)

    Genre: Deck-building / Dungeon Crawler - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    Dungeon Raiders is a unique mix of deckbuilding, roguelike dungeon-crawling, and shop management, in which we equip a team of brave heroes and venture on dangerous missions across the lands in search of valuable loot that we can then sell at our shop.

    Starting with only one hero, our goal is to finish 30 randomly generated dungeons that consist of rooms with monsters, traps, locked doors, and loot chests. Our stats are defined by the equipment we wear, and as we recruit new troops for our cause, their attack, block, health, and mana values are added up, allowing the entire party to deal more damage and sustain more hits.

    During combat, we get to play one card from our deck on each turn, whose effects get fully resolved before the enemy's turn. This simple system gets much more interesting later, when we expand our deck with new powerful cards that allow us to focus on melee, magic, or defense builds, or combine cards however we like to create our own unique playstyle.

    What sets the game apart from regular dungeon crawlers is the trading aspect, where all excess loot we have collected needs to be sold at our shop. While at the shop, our heroes temporarily change their specialization from warriors to shop workers, servicing the counters, hauling goods, keeping our merchandise safe from thieves, and playing music to entertain the customers. We can even upgrade the shop with new rooms, stands, and decorations that can be placed however we see fit.

    Dungeon Raiders is a $3.99 premium game without ads or iAPs. Despite its simplistic graphics and grindy gameplay, it's great for everyone who likes constant progression and enjoys playing in short intervals here and there.

    Crossout Mobile (Game Size: 1.3 GB] (Free)

    Genre: Racing / Action / Shooter - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    Crossout Mobile is a post-apocalyptic vehicular combat PvP action game where we design our own over-the-top armored vehicle and use it to destroy other players in various online game modes.

    The primary 6v6 mode has us fight 6 opponents over the control of an area of interest near the middle of some decently large maps, with clan wars and other modes unlocking as we level up.

    By playing both PvE and real-time PvP matches, we progress through a trophy road that rewards us with blueprints for new vehicle weapons and parts, such as guns, humongous knives, wheels, plates etc., which we then craft using scrap metals acquired through gameplay.

    During combat, attempting to target specific parts of the opponent's vehicle, such as destroying its wheels so it can't move, or its guns so it's no longer a threat, is a big part of what makes the game fun. Meanwhile, the vehicle customization is incredibly in-depth, which allows us to experiment with some truly strange vehicle builds – something I quickly found myself spending a lot of time on.

    The post-apocalyptic theme is neat, there's a large variety of fun weapon designs, and the maps are even decently well-designed. Unfortunately, the textures aren't very detailed, and there's a lot of rubberbanding caused either by janky animations or server latency.

    The controls aren't bad, and there are lots of settings to enable or disable various quality of life features, such as auto-shooting, but the game overall lacks some polish to be able to truly compete with its PC and console sibling.

    Crossout Mobile monetizes through a battle pass, incentivized ads, and multiple iAPs that allow paying players to progress faster. As long as you play the game at a casual level, it provides a decent core gameplay experience that I think many will enjoy.
