Destructivator 2

It's like an updated version of Secret Agent with lasers. There's a huge variety of enemies and the level design is mostly good. Solid game. A good challenge on the default difficulty level (Hard).

It's fine. Extremely simple, a little clunky, but good music and a lot of levels.

https://youtu.be/V9dYDEZc68c Sometimes it's nice to visit the classics in gaming, the titles that may have faded from popular memory but still hold a special place in your heart for the time that you had with them. In my case, its now obscure titles for the PC like Megarace, Halloween Harry, Under a Killing Moon or Air Wolf that all bring back memories of my formative years in gaming. And recently I happened across a game that seems to amalgamated alot of the spirit of those titles, and even meshes a few of the genres together. released on the 2nd April 2020 by Pug Fugly Game, Destructivator 2 is a platformer shooter that is unrelentingly 90s throwback in execution, available on Steam right now for £4.79. Action. Explposions. Gunfire. More explosions. Hordes of evil dudes and mega bosses vs a solo hero hell bent on saving the world. And lastly, EXPLOSIONS!!! If you have a hankering for the days of "shoot first, shoot more and if you have bullets left then you've not shot enough" then this game is right up your alley. But the question is when you do pull the pin on this grenade of a game, does it blow you away, or does it fizzle out worse than a Segal straight to DVD release. Let's find out. This is my review, of Destructivator 2.

Heard about this from the Run'n'Gun book. The mechanics are easy to pick up and the levels and visuals are reminiscent of old Amiga or DOS games. It's loads of jumping, dodging and shooting, a fun challenge that's rarely unfair. Some levels have spaceships to fly around in which adds a bit of variety. The real challenge is to do all the levels without getting hit. And what an amazing soundtrack, plenty of great fizzy synth riffs and chiptune/Amiga style.

For anyone who are looking for nostalgic games, you've come to the right place. Destructivator 2 offers pure nostalgia right off that bat with its retro graphics that reminds of the good old NES days. Its fairly challenging just like the games we've had before. The controls are very straight forward. Other than the usual directional movements, you only have a button for jumping and shooting. Its that simple. Finishing a level requires you to clear all the enemies found in the stage. Your score will only vary depending on how much health you have at the end. There are a total six missions and each missions has multiple stages in it and a boss level at the end. You can also choose from three difficulties: Normal, Hard and Brutal. I highly recommend that you go for the Hard difficulty to fully experience retro gaming, where hand-holding is not allowed and you are thrown right in the middle of the mess. Just like the good old times. There are only a couple of things that I didn't like about the game. One is that there could be instances that you may have to backtrack because apparently you forgot one enemy to clear the stage. Or sometimes when there are only few enemies remaining, you are left wondering where the hell did went and what what area did you forgot to clear. So I kind of hoped that we get an indicator for the enemy locations once they are few in numbers. Next is the level designs, I find them too similar in my opinion. While the structures feels like it blend to much with each other, The game is fits well if you're looking for short bursts of fun since the level are pretty short to finish. This is a good change from the usual releases we get nowadays. Its a great throwback to the retro games. Plus, its reasonably cheap, I'm sure you will get money's worth. They also offer a demo version of the game just incase you are still unsure whether to grab this game or not.

ENGLISH: ’ve been waiting for quite a while now for a continuation of this masterpiece of gameplay. The game seems amazing to me, with its miniaturized style, minimalist graphics, and accessibility options that let you adjust the background to suit each player’s preferences. I love games with this kind of concept, and I find this one really enjoyable. But time passes, and I see no sign of a third installment, which I’m truly waiting for with all my heart. I understand that hardcore players might prefer ultra-realistic graphics, but I assure you, this game, along with its superb soundtrack, feels like a breath of fresh air in the Steam catalog—a gem I’ve definitely added to my favorites. I really hope more indie developers choose this kind of formula, which takes me back to my MSX days or even to my Nintendo NES era. Thank you so much, folks, for allowing me to enjoy this true jewel. I wish you the best of luck with your future projects. SPANISH: Ya llevo bastante tiempo esperando una continuación de esta obra maestra de la jugabilidad. El juego me parece estupendo, con ese estilo miniaturizado, esos gráficos minimalistas y esas opciones de accesibilidad que permiten ajustar el fondo según lo que más le convenga al jugador. Me encantan los juegos con este tipo de propuesta, y este me parece muy divertido. Pero el tiempo pasa y no veo por ninguna parte la llegada de una tercera parte, y de verdad la espero con todo mi corazón. Entiendo que a los jugadores más hardcore les gusten los gráficos ultrarrealistas, pero te aseguro que este juego, junto con su estupenda banda sonora, me parece un suspiro de aire fresco en el catálogo de Steam, una propuesta que, por supuesto, tengo en mis favoritos. Ojalá más desarrolladores indie opten por este tipo de fórmulas que me remontan a mis tiempos del MSX o incluso a los de mi Nintendo NES. Muchas gracias, chicos, por permitirme disfrutar de esta verdadera joya. Les deseo mucha suerte en sus futuros proyectos.

Pure action-fueled 90's style platformer. The characters are tiny, which is really cool as it gives a larger picture of what's going on. Starts fast but it's easy to play, with simple and easy controls and good maps that don't overcomplicate.
