QUICK TEQUILA - @QUICKTEQUILA |
written by Ois |
It looks so cute and stylish. And after I installed and played through a couple of levels, I began to realise I was betrayed.
Horribly, horribly betrayed.
I hate this game.
There is one nice thing about it. The music to it is wonderfully charming and fun. If you don't like twitch but want to support the developers, I'd suggest buying the OST to the game as Calum Bowen has done a really nice job with it.
And I suppose the game is brightly coloured and nice to look at.
Unfortunately the levels feel quickly cobbled together in order to get a game out. This might be due to the deliberate way it encourages you to replay and learn the layouts by making you constantly fail if you can't react at the speed of a squirrel who has drunken over a hundred cups of super caffeinated coffee.
But it is just horrible to play. I fucking H-A-T-E this type of game.
A speedrun masochistic first person shooter puzzler. Make one mistake and you start the whole level again.
Slowly, ever so slowly, refining your run until you get it right.
And the reward is to do a new level that is slightly harder.
I'll never understand how this is meant to be fun and just what you get out of bragging rights for making the leaderboards.
People like it. I do not. I simply don't have the reflexes or patience to deal with this sort of crap anymore. And I doubt I did when I was younger too. I was getting better at it by the end, and managed to 3-star world 1 for the achievements. Then world 2 decided to kick my teeth to the curb for thinking I was any good at it.
With all the positive reviews on it, take it as a game tareted specifically at a certain type of individual.
My Final Thoughts: FUCK THIS GAME WITH A RUSTY IRON PIKE.
