The guns are magical...

But the magic is a bit of a dud... Hence 4/5. I saw this game on RockPaperShotgun and had to have it. Simple fast paced FPS games are my sort of thing. The chunky pixel art and filters that can be applied help with the retro appeal if that is your thing. Personally, I prefer to focus on the game play - I have worked my way through the first 2 episodes and about a a quarter of the way through the 3rd. Perhaps it is unfair of me to slam the spells in the game as I haven't played it all the way to the end, yet. However, as of yet, I have not felt the need to spend upgrade points on the spells. I felt these points were better spent on the guns - which are mighty fun and satisfying. I guess the game might ramp up as it progresses and maybe then the spells start to come into their own. We'll see. The axe is a brutal and fun weapon. With the right character build it seems entirely possible to mostly use this weapon through most of the game. I know I've certainly used it a lot and I've tried to keep my character flexible. Now, I say character build as if the RPG element is quite built up... it isn't. But then again, I am happy it isn't. It's just enough to not distract from the action but also enough to make it enjoyable rather than a throw away bolt on that many small games seem to do. On a sidenote, the music in the game is a bit of a mixed bag. More often than not, I find myself enjoying the music. From time to time, I find myself trying to get past the level in hope that the music changes in the next level. With a a retro shooter, the music tends to be in your face. But having said that, some of the tracks have been really good. I know, turn down the music volume... but I really don't think that is how this game is meant to be played. In summary, this game is well worth the money if you enjoy this type of FPS. That is to say one that is heavy on the shooting and retro appeal and light on story and RPG mechanics.

Great Throwback

Great throwback to old times - as is the case with most of these kind of throwback games they've added a few tweaks - few customisation skills, lives, but it doesnt really detract from the overall experience of that glorious shooty shooty bang bang. It's hard to critique this - it's not a perfect game - but they've clearly put a lot of work into this and for the effort invested, and the experience of the final product, it's well worth a purchase.

Absolutely incredible!

The game starts off as a generic Doom/Hexen clone but evolves into so much more. The game incorporates upgrade paths and skillincreases that evolves with your own playstyle. Furthermore the level select system puts a moden spin to the classic 2d shooter concept. Project Warlock can be played exactly as you choose, melee, magic or guns it's all up to you as a player. The leveldesign is amazing and it forces you to always look behind you after progressing as some items spawns enemies. If you're an advanced player you can always rush the maps to increase the difficulty or you can take your time and bait enemies when low on ammo. Combine the modern elements with a classic, dark themed fast paced shooter you get an absolutely thrilling experience that everyone can enjoy.

Buy this.

It's ok, but much slower, and sparse, than the trailers suggest. Amazing graphics.

a good game that could be great.

I don't own the game yet but I've played it here's the good -satisfiying gunplay -beatiful sprites and enviroments, -E2 is pretty original, there have been very few games with missions in antartica bases, and even fewer inspired by the masterpiece that was The Thing, a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one -good music -weapon upgrades are varied, you got 2 choices that change how they work the bad: -lightning, the game sometimes is PITCH BLACK, it needs work I knew there is a light spell, but it's a band aid to an exposed fracture, this is one the game's biggest problems and needs to be addressed. -E3 is bland, E1 and 4 arent much better but I feel like medieval castles and industrial themes dont get old as much -weapon upgrades lack full descriptions, some things in the weapons change that you didnt know would change, like accuracy -different sprites for HP and mana depending on the episode, this is an interesting idea and I appreciate the sentiment but universal sprites would have been better -upgrade points take a while to accumulate, you'll get 2 by average per mission. -strenght stat is pretty useless, you'll ditch melee by E2, weapons that got bonus damage from strenght would have been good, like bows, chainsaw, etc -some sprites are on the simple side -spells are kinda boring so far, its better to invest in guns than magic, since magic takes a while to get good there's a lot of potential here and I wish the devs nothing but the best!
