I bought this game around like 2017 or 2018 I think, but only commited to a full playthrough now. Probably for the better since the game is out of early access nowadays. This is one of those games that I feel like was made specifically for me. It's simply, completely, unapologetically self indulgent in every aspect. Firstly, it's a top-down sprite based horror game, one that is very similar aesthetically to something you'd see on the RPG maker engine. If you have fond memories of stuff like Misao, Mad Father, or Corpse Party, this game will take you right back, even though it is on a completely different engine, and has gameplay that is much different from those other titles. Like those other games, it carries the same ultra edgy violence happening to adorable anime (or furry in this case) characters. And I just love that, I love any piece of horror media that mixes it's horror with extreme cuteness, as I feel it makes it more effective for a weeb/furry such as myself. The fact that the characters are so adorable to me puts a lot more pressure on me to make sure they come out okay in the end. Second, the combat takes palpable influence from oldschool shooters (hell, I even recognize several of the sounds from Quake and it's expansions!) You even get one spell early on that lets you teleport to a little ball you toss around like in the final boss of Quake, and yes you can telefrag monsters with it! There's also a BFG type spell that just nukes groups of creatures and gibs them instantly. It borrows the Quad damage power up aswell lol Lastly, as is probably the first thing most people will notice, this game's art style leans heavily on My Little Pony. Naturally, it's meant to appeal to the bronies, which might turn several people off. But listen, dear reader, i understand. I was a hater back when the show was new. But I was like 16, and the show has been done for like 5 years now. It's time to mellow out, kill the part of yourself that cringes, and let yourself enjoy some adorable technicolor horses. Or well, not that colorful in this game. Most of them will be covered in blood and slime. Some of them will be missing body parts. But I digress. This game is more than just an amalgamation of it's influences however. It also adds many more of it's own little tricks to the mix. Other than a regular health bar, you also have a toxin meter and a sanity meter, and picking up certain items might decrease one type of damage but increase the other. That means you have to keep up with a balancing act of keeping all your meters down, and prioritize which is more important at a given moment. It's neat! Though I gotta say, the penalty you get for losing your sanity is... not my favorite lol. You are basically teleported to "your personal hell", and you have to grab shards of sanity before returning to the normal stage. It's an interesting idea, but the personal hell gameplay is not as interesting as the regular stage, and takes a bit too long for my liking. Unrelated to the sanity mechanic (mostly) is the maniac state. If you go on a rampage your character will become psychotic, and start enjoying the carnage a bit too much. On top of giving you a passive increase to insanity, it also affects the ending you get so... be warned. The only way to cure the maniac state is by saving the spirits of fallen enemies through a limited use spell. Really, this game just has a lot of weird little mechanics like that. I'd say they're hit or miss, but honestly, I appreciate that. It's willing to experiment, it's willing to be completely self indulgent, and weird. It's not playing it safe to please anyone, it's brazenly doing whatever the fuck it wants, and pulling it off for the most part! I respect that immensely, more game devs need to be this hedonistic when creating video games. Hell, more artists in general need to be more self indulgent when creating anything!

D'LIRIUM is a top-down horror shooter where you enjoy a nice NewYears party with your pony friends. Beat it in 2.6 hours using a keyboard and mouse. Difficulty can be set in game. Content Warning: Pixel guts and gore, disembowelment. This is one of those games where you get it cheap and keep it in your library closet for years thinking it's something completely different than what you thought it was. It's not a slow RPGMaker jrpg game. This is more of a fast-paced oldschool Diablo shooter with Doom aesthetic, and the player happens to be a death pony. Mouse clicks shoot/teleport, Shift runs, Space picks things up (you have to click space repeatedly to pick anything up), 1-4 chooses weapons, tab opens map when you get it, and ` is the command key. There are also different modes, like an arcade mode. For as niche as this game looks, it's pretty freaking good for a hell shooter. The replay value is there and there are a ton of achievements that are not easy to get, encouraging you to be creative on your future playthroughs. That also means it's an achievement hunter's worst nightmare. You can probably find other games like this on steam, but you wont find one where you can beat a dead horse for thrills. Friendship is magic. *** Epilepsy Warning: This game has an overload of white, black, and red erratically flashing and strobeing lights. Would stay away if you have photo-sensitive epilepsy.

Oh my fluffy tails! So, I, like, totally got distracted and left the game open while doing fox stuff, you know? And then, whoa! I had to press pause on my favorite foxy Spotify playlist because the soundtrack of this game was just too paw-some! It's like, worth more than a basket of berries, seriously. The creators must've poured all their time and love into it. Super excited to support their future projects—I'm already bouncing with excitement! And seriously, take a moment to appreciate how sleek and refined everything is. I was legit surprised right from the first save point. This game, like, gives you that tingly feeling, making everything so magically uncertain. I Go Through Games So YOU Don't Have to: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/Curlyxxx TL;DR - Even if you're not into foxes, you're totally missing out on some seriously fantastic stuff! 🦊💖 This game is in a completely different category on it's own. Everything about this game screams that it was made with care. I LOVE Horror but this Game takes me through a completely different journey! Might even pick up the soundtrack because it's genuinely good.. Update: The magic...
