Reviews for "DN8:Pulse"

Compared to the original, which I very much liked, its really nice to see a refurbished version.

The new graphics improve the game a huge deal, the only negative thing to say is, the bullets were easier to spot and avoid due to their sharp edge in the original version.

What I really like more in the first version, was the music and sound effects.
That gritty drum and bass got me going and the old retro sound effects fitted nicely.

This is pretty good! Yeah, the bgm did get pretty annoying at times. It's in the right genre and sounds spacey, but it's still confused and bloopy and bleepy, y'know? Redundant. Good power-ups, they really made the game easier (though I know a lot of people in this genre like bleeding-hellish-painful-hard-extreme-whatever difficulty, so I could see how a lot might say it's too easy) and I never had a problem with one-shotting a boss or anything but I didn't play through much more than the basics. Nice 3D, too!
I wouldn't recommend it as a timeless go-to game to my buddies, but I'd recommend it for a nice one-time or two-times game. I like it, it's nice and I can appreciate the work put into it. :)

Thanks :) To be honest it is what it is, a 15 min shooter, there's no real depth to it, sometimes you just want to switch off and shoot things, and hopefully this is what this is.

Good game, the upgrades make it easier to keep playing. But canĀ“t stand the backgroung music, most of the levels have a BGM that sounds almost the same as the last level.

This is Pretty good I enjoy it

I'd like to point out that it's entirely possible to win levels AFK once you get double shields... Kinda defeats the purpose.
