Funny top down shooter. I need to put more time into this. Grab this game when it goes on sale. The entire Serious Sam franchise goes on sale pretty frequently.

Nov. 2024

A pretty fun and interesting take on the Serious Sam franchise, with really good music and fun gameplay! I personally didn't find it as difficult as other people here have pointed out (even on higher difficulties), and I enjoyed it a lot!

I love this game bro, one of the better Serious Sam indies, the art and music is just amazing and it's pretty dang fun to play, especially with friends.

May 2024

This game is quite difficult when played solo, which is largely due to the limited lives it gives you per level and the amount of enemies it throws at the screen all at once. Works fine on Steam Deck, but fails to close when you exit out so you have to force close it by restarting the console. It is an otherwise fun twinstick shooter with a charming high-bit pixel artstyle. Needs a better logo, though, because this basic italic san-serif typeface isn't doing it for me. SAM/10 would Serious Sam again.
