Early Access Review
What drew me to this game was the Diablo-2-esque graphics, but as I play more it becomes apparent that this game is more in-depth and somewhat more difficult than a game like Vampire Survivors or Bounty of One.

Definitely would recommend, if you like games akin to aforementioned Vampire Survivors or Bounty of One.

This game sucked absolutely every modicum of soul that NFS:MW once had. If you brush up against certain objects, you get incredibly annoying crash animations. The cops act like they're in Forza 4 and can slingshot at 200MPH at you just to keep up. Additionally, the game doesn't have any progression like the original NFS:MW had, you just win a few races and bam, you have the best parts in the game for the car you want (the majority of cars are free in this game, you don't even have the threat of a rival taking your car.) There's no money, no real progression, no soul. And the "characters" in this game are excessively shallow, their voice lines sound like they were recorded while drunk in a back alley.
Bad Rats has a better story than NFS:MW 2012.

I'm so sad Criterion had to make this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game.

Early Access Review
Here's my first impression of this game, after playing it for two hours or so:

It's amazing.

The animations are buttery smooth, and features beautiful, colorful graphics.

The combat is fair, yet challenging, and thought must be put into every swing of your sword and every roll you make, because that could mean taking half your health in damage. (Especially when wielding something that has a "Take 2x damage, but deal 2x damage," buff on it.)

The weapon variety is impeccable, offering all sorts of items and skills for anyone's playstyle.

Dead Cells is a great game, despite being in Early Access. I regret not buying it sooner.

This game is a ten-outta-ten work of art, and I personally look forward to tacking on many hours in it.

Early Access Review
I absolutely love this game. Twin-stick style shooters are among my favorites and CRYPTARK is a game I can absolutely get behind.

PROS
  • Excellent, responsive controls that are configured wonderfully on both mouse/keyboard and controller
  • Top-notch voice acting (Jerma985 is in CRYPTARK, and voices the Engineer!)
  • Large variety of weapons to suit any play style
  • Increasingly difficult, rewarding level system
  • EXCELLENT soundtrack!
  • Large variety of enemies and different stages of increasingly difficult enemies as the game progresses
CONS
  • Several graphical bugs (However it's understandable, as the game is in early access and not yet completed)
  • Issue where explosives will cause you to be disoriented and may cost you the level you're on
  • Some bonus objectives in missions are arbitrary when another bonus of the same category is active
  • Levels become increasingly unfair rather than difficult, depending on the type of level
