"A Hidden Gem for Retro Platformer Fans!" Broken Armor is a small but mighty game that feels like a love letter to the challenging platformers of the past. While it might not be on everyone’s radar in 2024, it’s proof that minimalist design and tight gameplay can still deliver a ton of fun for those willing to give it a shot. Gameplay: You play as a fragile knight whose armor breaks right at the start, leaving you vulnerable to every threat. The game’s charm lies in its simplicity—jump, dodge, and survive. The controls are tight, and the levels are designed to test your precision and patience. Each stage is packed with hazards, and the satisfaction of clearing a tough section is unmatched. It’s tough, but it never feels unfair. Graphics and Sound: The pixel-art visuals are simple yet effective, giving off a classic retro vibe. The music and sound effects fit perfectly, immersing you in the game’s nostalgic feel. It’s not about flashy graphics—it’s about creating a focused and engaging experience. Pros: Tight and responsive controls. Challenging but rewarding gameplay. Retro aesthetic that captures the essence of old-school platformers. Perfect for quick play sessions. Cons: The difficulty might deter casual players. Very short; could leave you wanting more. Conclusion: Broken Armor isn’t trying to compete with modern AAA titles—it’s a game for players who appreciate the simplicity and challenge of classic platformers. While most gamers today might overlook it, those who enjoy tough, retro-style games will find it a hidden gem. It’s a short but satisfying journey that reminded me why I love indie games in the first place.

Ignoring the money making bug, this game is incredible. Very addicting and difficult. Found myself sitting down for 3 hours playing this game.

Between the coupon and the cards, I made money on this game, and got all the achievements at just under 90 minutes (the hardest one being dying 25 times). Ultimately reminds me of something you'd find on Kongregate back in the day; a light little flash-style game.

A hidden gem. This game does exactly what it set out to do. It's fun and addicting for at least a couple of hours. Sadly not many people like this type of game and the developer doesn't get the recognition he deseves. I only found out about it because I got a 75% off coupon by leveling up. Score: 9/10
