This game is perfect for making small games between buddies, not taking a head, simple to understand, it's niquel! One can even personalize its parts on full of aspects, which leaves a huge margin of openness for completely supervolted parts! Like putting enemies faster, slowing down the speed of the characters or vice versa.
In short, an unmissable given its price!

Product received for free it was a pizza party, it's over in the retro evening.
While we were 5 to discuss arcade games, period synth music and to wander on Google, we stumbled upon this little nugget.
During this evening, salt was born, tears flowed but above all a ritual was created. A ladder has emerged, stories go around.
Anyway, we played gravity wars and we don't intend to stop there.

Well then, what about gravity wars?
First of all, I have had this game for some time now. Seeing it happen on steam is something cool, because the small Studio behind this game is slowly developing, and it's a big step for them. Being able to finally get out of the games on steam is a big step, so well played to them!
First of all, you will have understood, I know a little about the Studio, but I will try to be as objective as possible.
Gravity wars is one of the first black potion games. This is a small game in a very year 90 design, on Arcade Terminal. We really find this aspect, with the screen that jumps, a lot of distortion of the screen, and above all a graphic and audio universe reminiscent of that of Tron.
Let us be very clear, this game is not a game to play solo. It's not a multiplayer online game either. No No, this game is trying to reproduce something that we, players, have lost over time. This is a game made to play locally at home, with friends. The gameplay is also very well suited to play the gamepad, which I recommend if you want to play it.
So now what is the purpose of this game?
Well, it's very simple. "Spawn" will drop over a portion of the color particles. If you touch these particles, you'll die. Nothing very complicated, if only you have a power to bump the particles on your enemies in order to kill them.
In General, the parts are fast enough, between 30s and 1 minute, but quite intense, and it's pretty good. This is indeed a game here to play with friends of the shot, just story to relax and enjoy a bit. It's really cool besides when you get to 4 on, for already having done the test with mates:-)
For all those who like me like to spend time between buddies, and who like games that can be found on browser quite often, that comes close to this type of gameplay, so do not hesitate. In addition to being able to spend a good evening on a game whose price is reasonable, you allow a small French Studio to develop. (Ask yourself, the Studio is definitely worth a look at their other creations).
