Pretty solid game for the price. It would be nice like to see some controller support for the game knowing there is a layout for Xbox that works well. I managed to get a layout to somewhat work on my Steam deck for the time being but in the end mouse and keyboard was easier. Overall enjoyed it and managed to 100% the game in a decent amount of time.

"We’re going to build a wall, and Mexico is going to pay for it." Or something. Anyway, I enjoyed Pixel Gladiator a lot. It’s a nice 2D mix of an arena shooter and a tower defense game. This little hidden gem reminds me of a game called Bet on Soldier that I played a while ago. You get money by killing hostiles, but you only earn the money if you kill them in specific areas where cameras stream your fight to some folks. The premise of the game is to defend a reactor core that you can buy weapons and gear from. You can build walls and turrets around your reactor and do whatever you can to defend it from the spooky eldritch horrors that come in giant hordes—crawling, walking, FLYING, DROPPING OUT OF THE SKY, AND CRAWLING OUT OF THE GROUND TO GET YOUR LITTLE FUTURISTIC ASS. And oh man, it’s beautiful. You’ve got three arenas, each with 10 waves and a boss. There’s also a survival mode, which is infinite. In survival mode, I managed to NOT spill my organs out until wave 52. At such a wave, you start to turn into the money you’re making itself and think, "Why can’t I just build walls out of such insane amounts of dosh?" The weapons are nice—the flamethrower and grenade launcher are bleedin beasts. You can also unlock a mech (only in survival mode), and that thing turns into a killer with the right upgrades. The combat is fun; enemies turn into bloody pixels and gibs, explosions are loud and devastating, and the Gladiator fella? WHY IS HE SO SMOL?! But yeah, Pixel Gladiator is a fine game that I had lots of fun with. 9/10.

Plays like a browser flash game, not a bad way to spend an hour but you could do a lot better.

I found this to be a funny little game that's simple in nature but can take some practice/planning to get good at. My advice for survival mode is just use the alternate fire (Right click) with the pistol until you can afford a grenade launcher, then use the alternate fire (also right click) to carry you through the game with easy. Pick up the double health and rocket boots upgrades also. Hopefully you enjoy this little gem for an easy 100% completion.
