Tooth and Tail is a unique RTS game. The game seems to take a lot of inspiration from the novel "Animal Farm" by George Orwell. The most unique mechanic of the game is that instead of getting an overview of the battlefield, able to fly around it with a floating camera. Instead, you take control of a commander, leading your army from the front lines. While this mechanic is interesting, it can also result in moments in which you are not able to get to areas in time. The issue is not really with not being there, it is not being able to get units there in time. The game's main way of balancing you not being able to instantly see wherever on the map is the 'Burrow Home' mechanic. By holding a button, you are able to burrow back to any of your controlled bases. On the subject of bases, there are two types, windmills and campfires. Both types cost 60 food to build, and produce more food. Campfires, when built, give you a steady income of food. Windmills, however, do not produce food by themselves. Each windmill is surrounded by farmland, which cost 60 food each. Because of this, windmills are a larger investment, but they pay out 8x (I think) more. The game has 4 factions, the Longcoats, Commonfolk, KSR, and Civilized. Each of factions are interesting in their own right, and each have intriuging backstories. To sum each of them up real quick, the Longcoats are revolutionaries; the Commonfolk are the common animals, and they live underneath an old train station; the KSR are communists who want order; finally, the Civilized, they feed others to their own, but mask it as a religious ceremony. I have not messed around with multiplayer much, so I don't know the differences between the factions. From what I can tell, the KSR deploy units individually, while other factions build warrens. Other than that I have not messed around with much else, but look forward to messing around with the game mechanics. All in all, I would personally recommend this game on sale if you are skeptical, I bought the game on sale for 9 dollars instead of the 20. If you are willing to pay the full 20 I recommend the game, its one of the games that when I sit down and play it, I don't stop until hours later.

I remember playing the demo for this game on xbox 360 over and over when I was younger. The game was only $10 so I was eventually able to get my hands on it, and I played it for hours. I ended up beating the game fairly easily. Looking back on the game, its really not as great as I remember, but I still love it. The game has a 2 player battle mode which I played with my friends for hours on end. The level design is a bit weird but the game is still amazing.

Game feels a bit clunky, however it has a good bit to do with me only getting 20 fps on low settings, even though I have the minimum requirements. The game looks fun, I just can't recommend it with the current level of optimization, and I doubt that this will be fixed. I am disappointed and wish I could have played it with at least 30-40 fps.

Early Access Review
Door Kickers Action Squad has fun gameplay along with an amazing soundtrack! The mechanics flow together well and the game is coop so you can play it with your friends. The gameplay is simple but addicting and makes you strive to get three stars on every level. The combat is fast paced and different depending on which class you play. There are four different classes as of writing this review. One gets an assault rifle, one gets a shotgun, one gets a shield, and the last one gets a pistol. Overall, I am having fun with the game and am excited to see it grow.

Gunpoint is a great game with a great soundtrack. It deserves a sequel. My only complaint is that the game is really short. Another issue which I fixed after 15 minutes was the resolution. It does not really work for 1920x1080 unless (for Windows 10) you go to settings, search for display, change display settings, and then there should be an option to change font, app sizes, and everything. The default is 125%, change it to 100% and enjoy your 1920x1080! Now we should get more into the gameplay. The game is first and foremost a STEALTH experience, hence the stealth tag on the store page. The game has a few ways to assist you with stealth such as a red cursor if a guard can see that location. One of the games most critical mechanics is the rewiring. It is a simple mechanic but it works, it allows you to rewire the level and helps provide a bit of freedom. You can use the rewiring to open doors when you flip a lightswitch, or you can use it to zap guards. You can even get really in depth with this, for example you can chain things. You flip one switch and rewire it to turn off all of the lights in the level. Now that we have figured out how to rewire the level, what about any guards? The guards will shoot as soon as they see you, however you can sneak past them using your ultra-cool trousers that allow you to jump super high. You can use this to stick to walls and ceilings, or do an action jump through a window to escape a guard! The game also has no fall damage, however if you fall from high enough you make noise that can alert the guards. A minor problem I had with the game is that there really is not a punishment to being caught on camera, in fact some levels require you to rewire cameras so when they spot you they open doors. Once you beat the level, you get shown a rating system. This is one of my favorite parts of the game, as it feels like something to aim for. It is divided into seperate catagories. A few examples are violence, noise, and witnesses. It is difficult to make it through the level with non-lethal violence and no witnesses, as when you tackle a guard, you can punch them once to knock them out. However, just knocking them out leaves a witness. If you punch them over and over, they eventually die which results in the violence going up. This may sound like a bad thing, however I like it. The reason for this is because each contractor has a certain catagory that they favor more. An example of this is that one of the contractors says to leave no living witnesses, doing this results in a bonus and higher grade. Other contractors prefer you not to kill everyone. There is a way to have no witnesses without killing anyone, however this is quite tricky! It requires you to get through the level without being spotted and also without hurting any guards. This is the 'gentleman' rank (shows up in violence) and the 'ghost rank' (shows up in witnesses). The game has some great writing in my opinion and even though it is short and fairly basic, a great story. I will not get into the story but I will say that choices matter, and many achievements are given depending on which dialog option you pick. This game really makes me feel like Conway, the main character. Sneaking into a facility in a trench coat and fedora, but something is missing... smooth jazz. The soundtrack delivers and you can get it with the 'Special Edition' of the game (extra $10). The game also has a level editor and steam workshop, however I personally feel that most of the custom levels fall short (I have played 5 or 6 so far). I sit down to play this game for a few levels and end up beating it. This could either be because it is short, or because of how fun it is. If I were to give this game a number rating I would give it a 9/10. I would definatly recommend this fun little indie game!

Ego Booster 6, the game is pretty boring in my opinion, the achievements are nice I guess, but too many of them. I would not recommend this game.

Metro 2033 is a single-player story game with a great atmosphere to go with the setting. You really feel like you are in Artyom's (The main character) shoes. The game is first and foremost a stealth game in my opinion, however you can go loud on lower difficulties. The Redux version also allows you to play 'Spartan' mode which makes ammo and filters abundant. I would recommend this for a first playthrough. It is for the people who mostly want the story, however if you want the full atmosphere then switch to survival. In survival, resources are about as plentiful as they would actually be after a nuclear war. Either way, the game is great with updated graphics and enhanced performance.
