  Quite a lame game ngl. Setting is interesting, but it kind of overstays its welcome due to slow, clunky and repetitive gameplay that hardly lives up to its core inspiration.

  Arm, Point and Shout. Its a simple, fun and kind of hilarious game that you would like to play on and on. A game you can finish within 2 hours top with some persistence. The hat achievement was the hardest for me.

  FUN GAME. I was a little worn out from my CS:GO regime and decided to switch things up. This game literally came out today so I thought hey why not. PROS: deceptively challenging. It looks easy, however I definitely got frustrated at a few spots. Cool soundtrack, it is a bit repetitive after awhile but still enjoyable. Story line is.. weird? But in a good way. Multiple guns as well as reload mechanics make for some tricky engagements. Fun game. Also found a bug and they patched it within a couple hours. CONS: Short :/ I read mid-high skill levels would be 4-6 hours and I beat it in 2. Perhaps I'm a badass? Granted I didn't kick over every single stone.. But I shot every guy that I saw and read the subtitles. Summary: Was it worth $9? Yeah. Will I play it again? Probably not. I was hoping to have a HARD difficulty unlocked once I beat it on medium but that was not the case. I like to think some indie guys made this game and this supports them in making more awesome games, and for all the money I waste on big titles it was a nice change of pace. They're right.. 12 is better than 6.

  12 is Better Than 6 is a top-down shooter in the vein of Hotline Miami if they had decided to channel Westerns such as Dead Man and The Wild Bunch instead of Cocaine Cowboys. It is an admirable, but ultimately flawed attempt at trying to translate the top-down shooter to the Wild West. It is uncomitted to anything more than the base mechanic of reloading, which while interesting and potentially nailbiting once you get the hang of it, isn't enough to get you excited for what in store. The game itself has many interesting ideas throughout, such as reloading and priming your weapon manualy as opposed to just slamming down on LMB. While this makes some firefights pretty tense, more often than not, it makes ducking in a corner and waiting all too viable of an option. Stealth is also flawed at times, given that you default knife has the "potential" to not kill enemies in one hit once alerted. Melee, while limited to one or two section in the game, is also, a bit of a gamble, with you hoping to hit your opponent before he retaliates. Thankfully, your survivability is a tad higher here than in HM (Even more so with an upgrade.) and like said game, continues are unlimited, but the time between resets is so disconnecting that it can be a little disorienting. Combos exist, but the only reward for getting them is hearing the main character spout the same lines over and over. There's literally no motivation for slaughtering multiple enemies barring your desire to read an obscuring text bubble over and over. The story is also borderline nonsensical, with you taking control of a Mexican with a bad attitude in search of his lost memories. What starts out as as a stereotypical introduction turns into a jumbled mess of plots, where you fight no less than five factions due to your actions. Motivations are never established and unlike, "you know what", the underlying gameplay and is lacking that pizzaz and allure that would carry the convoluted story through to the end. Also of note, various flavor dialog is untranslated, minor spelling and gramatical erros abound. I normally wouldn't be so peevish if everything else was well executed, but as you could assume, it isn't. The art at times, while an interesting stylistic choice, fails to convey much of what your doing while in action and often looks like you stumbled upon an eight grader's Western fan-fic. Despite this, the it's probably the games biggest strength due to the immediate contrast a la "Madworld". I admire the developers for being so adamant and dilligent with fixing various game breaking bugs, especially running this on a Linux system. I sincerely hope that the developers are able to refine their craft in the future, because 12 is Better Than 6 definately has something about it that screams wanting to be good and at ever fleeting moments, achieves it. Nevertheless, at ten dollars with little to no replay value, I can't recommend it without some serious caveats or discounts. There are worse games out there for sure, and it's not a malignantly bad title, but at the current price point, it is nothing more than a mildly interesting curio.

  [h1]Teal Deer[/h1] [list] [*][b]Developers:[/b] Ink Stain Games [*][b]Publishers:[/b] PinkApp [*][b]Initial release:[/b] Oct 2015 [*][b]Genre:[/b] Top Down/Twin Stick Shooter, Action, Western [*][b]#Worth/NotWorth:[/b] #Worth [/list] [h1]Exposition, Concurrence and Summation[/h1] 12 is better than 6 is a interesting take on the well established “twin stick shooter” genre. Take Hotline Miami, stick it in a western and give it some stylized art direction. What makes 12 is better than 6 unique aside from its visuals is the mechanics of each weapon. There are 5 in total and each handle rather differently. The revolver requires you to fan the hammer. The rifle requires re-cocking after each shot. You must also reload each bullet for all weapon types including the shotgun and the bow. There is also dynamite for when things get too hectic. The visuals create a stark contrast between the environment drawn with purple lines on paper aesthetic from the vibrant red blood strewn about from your bloodlust. The campaign is roughly 4-ish hours and has a decent story with some satirical elements. There is also an arena mode that is quite enjoyable. The campaign features some purchasable upgrades should you acquire enough money to buy them such as attaching dynamite to rats and having them seek out enemies. There are also some side missions that I personally found quite challenging to earn some extra bucks. Another thing that makes the game mechanically more interesting is the light stealth mechanics. You can knife people silently or use the bow. Obviously having someone see you or have the dead body be found sets off an alert, not an alarm, but a search is started near your last seen location or near the body. The game is very fast paced, death comes in one hit or a couple of grazes, respawns are fast, sometimes so fast I ended up clicking too much, winding up firing at the start and alerting everyone to my location. But the respawns are fast it was no matter in the end. [b]THE GIST: Really nice twin stick shooter with a unique twist.

  [h1]The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Goes Hotline Miami[/h1] Alright, 12 Is Better Than 6 is done and dusted. It’s hard to know for sure because of IM, but I’d say my total play time was around 6 or 7 hours. Initially, I died a lot, but as you go on, get upgrades, and especially as you get dual wield pistols (the 12 in the title), you pretty much become an unstoppable force. [h1]Story[/h1] The story was pretty silly overall, and yet you still want to see it through to the end. Basically, you are a Mexican ex gang leader seeking revenge and trying to find your lost memories. In fact, you are known simply as “The Mexican.” You have no love for the white man, Indians, or even other Mexicans! Basically, you are just angry at the world. However, you do have a sense of humor still (and that comes out nicely in the dialogue), and despite basically having no good intent, you still manage to do some good as you wander around Texas. I feel the story merits an 8 out of 10 overall. Although a bit sparse and heavy handed, it is also compelling and effective. [h1]Graphics[/h1] The art style was awesome: nice black and white world with red highlights (basically, any blood spilled). It was very cool looking, especially for a top down game. I will mention this a few times, but 12 Is Better Than 6 pulls from the obvious blend of Hotline Miami and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly influences to craft a stunning world The graphics get a solid 10 out of 10.They could not be more perfect for this one. [h1]Gameplay[/h1] So, it is similar to Hotline Miami in a lot of ways, but far more forgiving. You can hide from aggro’d enemies with more certainty of success and, as long as you keep moving, enemies will miss with their weapons more often. It’s still twin stick shooter goodness though. You can use the environment to your advantage in both the applications of stealth and of violence. The gameplay itself was seamless. I encountered zero issues throughout; no clipping, no weird physics, no stuttering or freezes or crashes. In every way, it performed immaculately. I give the gameplay 9 out of 10. It is fluid and nearly perfect. [h1]Sounds[/h1] The music was awesome. So much so that I bought the OST today. Really was perfect for the game, and generally awesome anyway. You could jam to this with no regrets while driving or running or whatever you choose to do. Not to keep bringing up Hotline Miami, but the soundtrack for this game is to Westerns what HM’s soundtrack was to…well…Miami (Vice era). The soundtrack is an easy 10 out of 10. Some good stuff there. [h1]Verdict[/h1] I think overall, I would give this game 9.3 bullets whizzing by your head as you drink tequila and plot your revenge out of 10 possible. By the way, there is an endless mode after you finish 12 Is Better Than 6 (you can probably play this before, but I didn’t) called Purgatorium Mode, where you have been condemned to a hellish undead existence and must kill all the other sinners. Check it out if you can. [code]If you found this review helpful and would be interested in supporting my Curator group, it would be appreciated.
