"The Bug Butcher"
"The Bug Butcher"
In the Bug Butcher you are a exterminator named Harry, whose job is to clear the alien bugs from a research facility. You do this by shooting your blaster straight up towards the ceiling. Enemies crawl across the ceiling, as well as bounce high above you. As you kill them they drop loot on the floor which you pick up by walking over it. You can pick up coins to purchase upgrades, as well as health and different power ups. You do not keep these after your current play through. Also some of the things you unlock you don't get right away either. It is one of those challenging games that you must tackle in one play sort of like The Binding Of Issac. That really is no problem, because it can be beat in just a few hours.
Another fun thing about it is you can play with a friend in coop mode if you wish. There are also difficulty settings in case your struggling. Could happen easy, because it is definitely a challenge.
Everything plays well, experienced no glitches. The controls are really spot on. The level design is done really well to make you work hard to beat each one all 30 of them. They are also very bright and colorful. All of the enemies are really original , and fun. The game reminds me a lot of Super Mutant Alien Assault or the classic Xenophobe. I kind of wish these guys made it more like that where you didn't just shoot straight up, because it can get really one dimensional, and repetitive Still a blast with friend, and fun to come back to time to time. So the replay value is there, especially for a indie arcade title.
If your into arcade space shooters "space Invaders" and "Galaga" style you will really enjoy this one. These guys did a really nice job modernizing that type of gameplay.
