Comments on the Game: D'LIRIUM
Let's talk about this action-packed and gore-heavy game that's gaining attention on Steam. Don't be deterred by the lack of Japanese translation. This game offers a unique blend of action and horror, catering to niche interests like "furry fans" and "ryona enthusiasts." The gameplay is challenging, but as reviewers have noted, there's a "mysterious sense of exhilaration and addictiveness" when enemies die in a spray of blood and gore. The retro pixel-art design of the maps also contributes to the eerie atmosphere. Currently in early access with only the prologue available, expectations are high for future updates.
On the other hand, those skeptical about games appealing to the "Brony" community might be surprised by this one. This mash-up of 2D survival horror and retro FPS has received high praise for its solid gameplay mechanics and atmospheric sound design. It scores particularly high in the audio department, enhancing the horror experience with its creepy ambiance. While there's room for improvement in story and character design, considering its affordable price and the promise of future updates, it's worth the investment.
These games combine various elements to cater to diverse tastes, adding a touch of cuteness to characters inspired by action, horror, or cartoons. Whether you like intense action scenes, atmospheric horror, or a bit of both, these titles have something to offer. So why not dive into these diverse gaming experiences? You might find a new favorite.
What is a Brony?
A "Brony" is a term used to describe adult fans, particularly males, of the animated series "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic." This community is highly active, engaging in a wide range of activities including fan art, fan fiction, music, games, and charity work. While some people question why adult men are so engrossed in a show for children, Bronies emphasize the values of friendship and positive virtues.
It's a gruesome scene, no sugarcoating it. Despite being pixel art, there are quite a few grotesque depictions. Proceed with caution if you're going to play.
