Is there more to Bullet Witch than meets the eye?

Post by Mischief Maker »

Some people were giving gog crap for not accepting the PC port of Bullet Witch. I though the trailer looked awful.

Is this some kind of P.N.03 game that plays much better than it looks, but you can't trust scrub reviewers to get it right?
Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

this guy likes some pretty trashy games and gives a good overview:

It'd be this. Problem is, a lot of people who should know better are also the ones being the scrubs.

Imagine if Gunvalkyrie got rereleased. Round 2 in the making.

I liked the concept of TPS + magic abilities. You can infuse your bullets with fire for extra damage, summon a tornado, summon a wall for cover, etc. I must have played through it 4 or 5 times to complete the achievements, so it can be fun. They had some good/interesting ideas, it was just made by a developer who didn't have the skill to make the most of them.

It's not great but I found it to be oddly playable. Like, if it's $5 or something close to that the price is right.
