Let me begin off this write-up with a scolding: Builders, make trailers to your video games! Trojuhelnicky is a brand new sport from developer Inputwish, who you could know from their glorious Go Rally, and it type of feels like this was the eagerness facet undertaking of certainly one of their programmers. However gosh darn it, I do know there’s a very particular viewers on the market who would see this sport in motion, and listen to its bleeps and bloops, and determine they have been immediately bought. However sadly you’ll simply have to take a look at these screenshots and play bleep and bloop sounds in your head to think about what Trojuhelnicky is like. It’s well worth the effort although, belief me.
Trojuhelnicky concurrently jogs my memory of a few of the very early sorts of video games we bought again with the iPhone was new, in addition to an Atari 2600 sport if the Atari 2600 was fed a gentle weight loss plan of hyperbolic steroids and LSD. At its most elementary it’s an object avoidance sport, the place you progress your little character on the backside of the display screen forwards and backwards making an attempt to keep away from the stuff falling from the highest of the display screen. Huge “first yr of iPhone video games” power. A twist is that you simply wish to acquire any object that’s yellow, as these offer you factors or power-ups, after which shoot just about the whole lot else you see. Besides purple issues, that are impervious to your photographs, and should merely be prevented solely.
That considerably fundamental algorithm blends right into a high-score chasing masterpiece. The motion of your character, who’s only a easy triangle, is quick and exact, and the motion occurring onscreen between the objects falling, your bullets being shot, and enemies being hit by these bullets and exploding right into a bathe of particles is each chaotic and simply recognizable. Trojuhelnicky is a scorching mess, a scorching wonderful mess, however one way or the other it’s completely manageable. I by no means as soon as felt like I died as a result of the motion wasn’t clear, each demise has been solely my fault. And I’ve died A LOT.
The fundamental construction of Trojuhelnicky is that you simply’ll play for a bit, a meter fills up, and then you definitely transfer onto the subsequent degree. The degrees can apparently go on eternally, and your final purpose is to finish up with a rating that may land you on the worldwide leaderboards. There’s not likely rather more to it than that. This can be a quite simple sport, executed very properly on a elementary degree. Perhaps some additional modes or choices or options would possibly add to the expertise, and I type of suppose you would take out the entire “transferring to the subsequent degree” half and make it only one steady countless degree. But when a pure arcade sport is one thing you’ll be able to recognize, particularly one which is really easy to choose up and have be instantly fulfilling, Trojuhelnicky is fairly robust to beat.
