That's why the Dreamcast was soooo good, so many great Arcade ports!

That Zelda hintI think Im picking up on a little extra meaning with that word choice


Hehehe.

(Actually I haven't played that game =S I just like referencing it anyway. I bet I would like it though, I like time loops, and games that are underappreciated. Although I don't like the N64 so maybe not.)

#89 Dusk

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/7/0/AABIPnAADhoK.jpg

Dusk is an indie single player FPS, that is clearly inspired by classic Doom and Quake. I'm a huge Doom fan, so this looked right up my alley...

...And it totally is! Actually it's more Quake than Doom, having low-poly 3d models, chunky pixels, and Quake-like weapons. But I would say it IS much better than Quake. Quake is a good-feeling engine, but the design of Quake's levels, monsters, and guns, are just kinda bad. Dusk fixes that...by being Quake with better levels, monsters, and guns!

It sounds unimportant, but when you press R to reload...there's no reloading in the game, so you just spin your guns. It feels really really good. It's a magic "I'm having fun" button.

The atmosphere is surprisingly good--the first few levels feel like the Village section of RE4 (good!). In fact, now that I think about it, the chainsaw burlap sack zombies from RE4 are a common recurring enemy in Dusk.

BEST LEVEL: The Escher Labs. Several unexpected level designs/themes help this game stand out from other "throwback" fast FPSes of recent years, and this was definitely one of 'em.
