  Well, it's fun when you first play it, but once the unlocks start happening and random weapons get thrown into the mix; it sucks all fun out of it. The Subway level is awful, it's more narrow because of the random train and the onslaught of enemies gets boosted to the previous level that makes it a complete trial and error level. As for gameplay, it's just a case of spamming bullets and dodging them back. No real challenge and if you're lucky with the spam, you get to the end and face the bosses. The bosses; their patterns are easy to figure out and are much easier to beat than the standard levels. Don't make sense to me. I bought this on sale (thankfully) but I still think a little more effort could've went into it.

  A pretty simple scrolling arcade shooter. Miami Vice seems to be a big influence on the main characters and some of the backgrounds in the game. It's obviously a nice little tribute to 80's action films an television. From fighting roving bands of ninja's in China-Town, to mohawk an machine gun wielding punk gangs in the subway system. All those great 80's action cliches are represented. It also contains some more bizarre things like a giant pile of green slime an super sized angry Alien Donut! The games sense of humor is certainly one thing that makes it stand out. Most notably on the final stage where you discover aliens did indeed kidnap Elvis and he's being kept alive! The pixel art is well done, creative, an colorful. Really gives off the feeling of playing mid 80's early computer games quite well. The background detail is pretty good an far from bland. Each area looks unique an stands out pretty well. I especially like the graffiti covered subway that comes scrolling by on the subway tunnel stage. The main characters almost remind me of Leisure Suit Larry from their outfits. While the game in itself is short (having taken me about an hour to finish on my first attempt) it does offer some replayability by offering a Boss Rush mode once you complete the game on any difficulty setting. Although I will say the bosses in this game are probably the easiest part. It takes me just barely about a minute to complete boss rush. The main stages are much more difficult. But you also have the option of trying to collect all 10 unlockable weapons which you have to collect badges dropped by enemies to obtain. Everything from Bazookas, Laser guns, and even a fairly useless but funny freezing ray gun. The concept is simple but quite fun. All you're really trying to do is dodge bullets an lay waste to enemies, while hopefully avoiding shooting the occasional civilian that comes across your path. You're given grenades, a starting pistol an as you progress extra weapons, armor, donuts for extra health, power ups that super charge your weapon and sometimes exploding barrels you can use to kill groups of enemies. The sound effects are pretty well done. The music is also pretty good and fits well with each stage. Movement controls are very smooth an responsive using a controller. Haven't tried it out with only keyboard. Difficulty wise I found the game fairly easy to complete even on the highest setting. But I'm also the type of person that can 1cc Cave shmups and tend to be pretty decent at difficult shooters. I would say for the average player this game is in the middle of the road difficulty wise on normal setting. Not impossible but requires some good reactions to dodge bullets. Even if you're not that great at this kind of game, on the "Thumbsucker" setting I think most people could complete it after a few tries. Once you complete a particular stage the game saves your progress so you can continue back from the stage you left off at if you exit the game. Fairly short but sweet budget indie game. No online coop but the game supports local 2 player mode. I feel like the only downside to Donuts 'N Justice is just the fact it's so short. For the low price I'd say it's worth buying. Especially if you're craving a quick dose of some run an gun action that is pretty easy to dive into.

  This game is really fun! This is one of those games where you can feel that every pixel had great love put into it. Despite its basic appeal, this game really does separate itself from others like it. With its low price tag, Donuts 'n Justice is easily worth a buy!

  "Donuts'n'Justice" Review: -Gameplay: Difficult in every mode possible, confusing bullets, way too many things in one monitor, but in that way, it`s even more fun! -Design: Amazing design, it has the exact same "Aesthetic" as those games you always see in a arcade machine, not many games get what they want to make them look, but this one, this one is just brilliant -Menu: Simple, it has everything you need -Soundtrack: Nothing special to say about it, each level and even the menu is just a 1 minute beat looped It`s sometimes annoying to find a new weapon when you`re using one already, and i was thinking that this game would be totally ideal if it was multiplayer, but playing with friends online, not in "Co-op local", just like Portal 2. (Really short game, just 5 levels?!) Other than that, great game, gives you a lot of nostalgia -7/10

  We just beat this game in about an hour and while the price might be ok for an hour of fun, this was mostly an hour of tedium and spam. What annoys me the most is that this game just feels really lazy. The bosses are not balanced at all. The first one might have been a challenge to some but all the bosses after that don't even really have a pattern. Just shoot them until they are dead. The last couple bosses didn't even hit us once even though we were not good at the game. We had to repeat levels constantly and I ran in front of the stupid train at least 6 times. The controls don't feel all there, the drops are too random and too frequent to care about, the grenades are more bother than anything. Some of the random weapons are just really useless and all the money you pick up can only ever be used to buy one out of about 15-20 uninspired hats. The hat thing really drives home the feeling of how robots probably designed this game on an assembly line of uninspired games. "It needs hats for the sake of it. Hoomans love hats." This one don't. I wish I hadn't bought the game not because it was a huge waste of money but rather because I supported lazy game design and fell for it just because it has local coop.

  Despite the quite big health bar, you will die a lot here, idk how it happens to me every time, but i end up with a *sudden* game over screen very often lol. About the game itself - +Visually good, reminds good old SNES games. +Okay soundwork, guns and misc sounds. +Gameplay - pretty simple, you only have 2 options - to shoot left and to shoot right (+grenades which feel like unlimited because of the number of ammo boxes), local multi. -Controls - my problem is that there is no buttons remap feature (for now), i don't like the default controls +Steam achievements +Steam cards Got the game on sale and cards basically covered 100% of the price - free small game before the new year i guess. By the way, looking at the game's poster, isn't the black guy supposed to have a bigger gun? Or just white guy compensating?

  These developers have no business charging $5 for this POS. Seriously, unless this game is on sale for $.50 or it's part of a cheap bundle, just ignore it. Everything about this title feels lazy and half baked - almost like it's a demo released as a full title. Ridiculously short play time coupled with crummy controls... yeah, I could go on but I think I've made my point. There are plenty of other titles on Steam that are more worthy of your time and money than this garbage; steer clear.
