A unique spin on the Vampire Survivors formula, mixing just enough of genre expectations with new things to make a fresh fun thing. The fact that you have clear goals every time (and time pressure to achieve them) is a welcome addition to the sometimes aimless wandering of Vampire Survivors. The fact that weapons are characters is a fun twist that makes things feel more fun and personal. The driving feels very nice though I think some vehicles are too extreme in their niches. For instance the Norrlander is extremely tanky but is both slow and turns poorly which makes it very hard to use, because it's almost impossible to avoid enemies, so you end up dying faster. But I would expect things like that to be tightened up in future patches. Overall it's a lot of fun, highly recommended.

I love it when puzzle games have very simple mechanics but do a lot with it. Out of the gate this game tells you "think before you move" and it's right! if you go for a trial and error approach it can get frustrating, but if you actually stop and plan your moves, it's a very satisfying game. Music and art are well thought out and executed, there is a coherence between the two which is nice to see from a small indie title like this. Overall this game could be a little bit of a hidden gem, I hope more people find it!

If I could wish for an improvement it would be more easier levels in the beginning to smooth out the learning curve a little bit, to allow players some time to practice how to think in this game. Give a level or two to practice thinking with each mechanic before we have to learn a new one!

Yay finally more nonogram games on Steam!

Pixross has a lot of options to tailor to your play style, and a good variety of puzzles! There is even a random generator for 5x5, 10x10 or 20x20 puzzles introduced in the most recent update, which is great for people like me who appreciate nonograms for the process of figuring them out rather than the aesthetic payoff at the end result. So while other nonogram games tend to run out of content for me very quickly, I think I'll be playing this one for a long time!

Also Kenney the developer is very open to feedback and has included a lot of player-suggested feature in his updates, which is always a big plus!
