Panzer Paladin

Muy buen juego aunque el horseman es demasiado irritante, lo unico malo es que no hay sexo entre robots

Pretty fun, short game. Would have liked to see some form of other upgrades to the mech. I feel the difficulty between bosses is done a bit strangely. Hardest boss (read: most annoying) is the first of the stretch. None before or after come even close in terms of tedium. Also had some weird stutters during the two levels before the end, but maybe that's something on my end, the rest runs completely fine.

A slightly creative take on the 8-bit Megaman formula. Sadly I purchased it to play on my Retroid pocket 5 and never managed to get it running. But it plays great on my potato PC at work, so that's the upside for you. I've enjoyed it so far, but you may wanna get it on sell since it extremely derivative from a bunch of other games you've already enjoyed and the little new features it brings to the table aren't particularly good or fun. I know this is a very luke warm review. Just not a good game for people with a dedicated gaming PC, I trully just got it to play it on GameHub and it didn't work so I'm stuck with it hahaha

単調なステージ構成　つまらないアクション ファミコン風と思わせてファミコンでそんな音鳴らんやろ！なチップチューン（笑） こういう魂の抜けたファミコン風（笑）なゲームが多すぎる！！！ どんなにそれっぽい感じを演出しようが、その時代を生きてきた人間の目は誤魔化せません！（笑） まさに失笑！もう何年前のインターネットだって感じで（笑）が止まりません！（爆）

норм

A 2D action platformer that bored me. Played it 100% on Steam Deck. Giving a positive review in the end but for me it was just OK. (+) Runs flawlessly on Steam deck. (+) Great visuals (+) Stage bosses were quite challenging and engaging (+) Interesting weapon mechanic (quite like BotW) that irked me at the beginning but I ended up thinking it brought some variety to the game (-) Fighting the same miniboss over and over was tiresome (-) Stage layout was very bland and didn't feel interesting to play through (-) Sparse checkpoints made it worse (-) The final gauntlet of stages were ok but when I tried to put it down and came back later I had to go through all of them again.

I love this game. It's an all time fave for me. Every song is a banger. I saw complaints about the controls. I love the controls. There's a bit of dash cancelling you can do and the dashes in the air are cool because you can use them to shift your momentum in the air. Attacking is pretty basic. You can pogo, attack in front of you, above or below. You shield some attacks that are in front of you. There are also sections that require you ejecting from your mech for a little bit. The later levels are kind of difficult, but I've played a lot of kaizo Mario so I didn't personally mind. The one thing I'll say though is that on my first playthrough, I never learned how to use the weapon abilities. So, would've been nice if the game was more explicit with stuff like that. Anyway, if you love retro games, great music, and Mega Man, I highly recommend you play this game. It's awesome.

I've tried to start playing this game multiple times, and the same thing kills my interest every time. The checkpointing system in this game is straight up bad. These are some sizable levels and there are only three checkpoints in each level: one at the very start, one in the middle, and one before the boss. Plus, you have to sacrifice one of your weapons to even activate it for some reason. I really hate this kind of punishment because you could do something as simple as fall into a pit by accident, likely from one of the various grapple section over bottomless pits they want you to do, and be sent really far back into the level. Oh, and there's a lives system on top of that as well, so you get booted from the level if you make too many mistakes as well. I work long hours, come back tired, and I don't have time want to bother with games that have time-wasting mechanics like these anymore. It's a shame because I love the presentation, and there are so few mech games which make the pilot playable to give you that sense of scale and power that a mech provides. However, I don't think I can finish this one, at least not now.

Remembered being excited for this game, starting it, and then not finishing it, so I revisited it to see what my problems were. I played through on Hard, both the standard mode and the "Remix" mode. The main problem is that while the weapon gimmick is fun on paper it feels like the rest of the game is being held prisoner by it to make it make sense, and it usually results in completely lopsided levels of challenge depending on what it's asking of you. You have an enormous health bar in this game, likely to warrant the usefulness of healing abilities and buffs, but because you can stockpile these healing and buff abilities it means damage is basically never what killed me past the first 2 stages or so. The average enemy attack will do anywhere from 5% to 10% of your total health and random weapon drops from enemies will often have healing effects that recover much more than that, or attack and defense buffs which are easily pocketed to make tough enemies a joke. This makes any level design setup involving only enemies (including every boss fight, EVEN THE FINAL BOSS) to fall completely flat. They attempt to remedy this by putting enemies near instant-death traps so they can catch you mid-jump and knock you in, but because taking damage doesn't knock you around and the damage itself is so meager the correct choice is always to just allow yourself to be hit in a safe spot and take the threat out a range instead of risking the fall. If you ever wondered why you go flying backwards dramatically when an enemy hits you in Megaman, Ninja Gaiden, Castlevania, etc., this is why. As others have mentioned the stages are quite long and the checkpoints are very far apart. Getting got by a pit or one of the many spikes with the world's most dishonest hitbox will often set you back several minutes of progress, which feels like an eternity with a game like this. Individual stages also have very little in terms of unique gimmicks and as a result they mostly all blend together: in each and every stage you'll encounter the same slow-moving footmen, insects, bats, rolling-ball-launchers, magic circle traps, moving platforms, bomb blocks, bats, what-have-you, often in the same arrangements and especially in the Remix mode where there's even more borrowing. Somehow in spite of all this boring design they decided their game should have 16 twenty-minute-long stages, making this a genuine death march of a game. People not used to old-school difficulty will be frustrated by the instant death traps, long checkpoints, and lives system, but people who like old-school difficulty will be disappointed by the unbalanced weapon system and weak level design. I genuinely don't know who this is for.
