Rollerdrome

DON'T BUY THIS GAME. I was lucky enough to give the devs money before the publishers took over and screwed 'em over. Great game btw. Smooth trick system. Fun combat. Lovely to play if you ever find yourself plunderin' the scurvy seas.

This was a good game with stylish visuals, intense action, and good writing. 2K Games has fired the entire team that worked on it and now the game is bundled with spyware. Steam I ask that you remove that data scraping requisite that's popping up before I can even play this game again. Only then I would recommend buying it.

Game is great but it's completely owned by 2k now , So don't by this game , here's why : - 2K requires you to take EULA which infamously turns the games into almost SPYWARE - 2K treated developers very unfair - 2K doesn't respect players at all

I bought this game a while ago and am finally getting around to playing and really liking it. I just saw the info about Roll7 (the devs) laying everyone off. Don't send money to publishers that reward good art with layoffs. Also support your local Roller Derby team.

One of the best games I've ever played, making it an even greater shame that the original developers were shafted like ZA/UM was with Disco Elysium.

I purchased this game before the whole 2K Games mess but had a nice time with it. There is a steep difficulty wall after the first few maps but there are also so many ways to tailor the game to your desired way to play that it doesn't matter much. I turned on a few assists and tried to keep it challenging at the same time. I don't care much for being competitive in the leaderboards so it worked out for me. Also, the art style (similar to Sable) and music are fantastic.

This game is just crazy good. In Rollerdrome, you rollerskate through an arena, armed with a gun, and you have to evade all enemies in your environment, shoot them with your gun, and do tricks to reload. At the end of a level, you get ranked for how many tricks you did, in how fast a succession you killed the enemies, how much time you needed and how much damage you took. This game has everything: A stunning visual style, really spectacular effects, cool worldbuilding, a fun narrative, crazy good music, an amazing trick system, and cool levels. Controlling the game is absolutely something you can "get good at" - you slowly unravel what the best way to quickly change direction is, when and how to do tricks, how to get up platforms, and so on, and the game puts more and more on your plate as you go along. Watching someone else play this game is completely overwhelming - lasers try to hit you, the environment is a maze of ramps and half-pipes, and the player does tricks and shoots at enemies at a break-neck speed. And still, playing the game feels incredibly good, and everything becomes rather intuitive rather fast. Additionally, the game offers special challenges for all levels that help you in discovering secrets, and playing the levels in new ways, so playing in an arena is not a one-off thing, but rather a task to master. One thing I find a bit exhausting is what I would call the "complicated enemy overload" syndrome. The game starts with two rather simple enemy types, and almost every level after this introduces a new enemy that is somehow annoying to kill, until that's basically all you have in the level - a guy that constantly points a fire laser at you and blocks half the arena with his flames, huge robot that takes forever to kill, multiple annoying shield enemies, and my absolute favourite - flying guy you never find who drops huge chunks of acid on you. You actually start to learn how to survive the levels, but each new level is just frustrating to start, because you have to learn so much information about the level before it's really "fun". And if you really don't like re-trying the same level again and again to fulfill hard challenges this just might generally not be your game. I kinda would have wished for a bit of casual "relief" between the really complicated levels, so that the fact how fun and flawless the controls actually feel would get a bit more time to shine between the very tense arena battles. But overall, Rollerdrome is just such a good game where everything just really fits together very well. The game is totally worth getting if you like mastering tough challenges!

5 hrs of skate and slow motion shooting unless u do the extras. very fun and stylish

Awesome, chaotic, and precision akimbo rollerblading. Be happy you picked this game up :)

After 3-4 play sessions.... honestly, I don't know why, but I don't really like it. I won't refund as its a GREAT game, and I'm giving it Thumbs Up even if I don't like because: - its gameloop is as tight as a drum - graphics are amazing and help you read everything - story seems to be quite interesting The part that I don't like, I unfortunately can't put my finger on. Something in there, in that gameloop, just feels like (and I stress "feels" because I got no evidence) I am forced to make certain choices rather than make them myself. I'll uninstall it, but if you're thinking of getting it - by all means, do so and enjoy!

my partner asked "why do the enemies just stand there?" and with that one comment she ruined the game for me
