VIDEOGAME IDIOCY HURTS
Time to bring your friends and have a laugh 'cos it's time for another trash game review.
Yeah, more trash gaming reviews.
Today we will take a look at Lady in a Leotard with a Gun, again by The Voices Games (Ascendshaft, Dragons in Space)
Oh, $#@%!, It's the Flamethrower Woman and her Minimalistic Blowtorch!
Like Lizard Lady VS The Cats, this game is a Third Person Shooter with very similar controls, and I say similar because it has a few twists. If the controls of Lizard Lady VS The Cats were simple, Lady in a Leotard with a Gun is even more reduced. First off, the L2 Auto-lock function was removed forcing you to manually aim the targets with the Right Analog Stick. But on the bright side, the Ammo-Energy Bar was removed, so you can fire infinitely by tapping the R2 Button, and you're gonna need to to that very, very often 'cos there's a few levels where the game will throw you large numbers of enemies in a large tunnel and even pit you in a small room against four big guys that take 20 or more hits. Also, the main objective of the game is to clear all the 11 stages without being hit once in order to get the trophies, but unlike Lizard Lady VS The Cats, you don't have to play all the stages in a row, making things a little bit more forgiving for those who had the misfortune of buying this thing.
Looks like the level designer went waaaaay to lazy with this one.
After a few Third Person levels, the game suddenly throws you this horizontal platforming where the aiming mechanics remain the same and you can even snipe enemies from a far distance.
Not to mention, the level is short.
The lone vestige of the Duckalonian civilization.
A race of humanoid ducks wiped out by the Monamegistians 50,000 years ago.
This one is for the "Trophy Hunters" who are suffering this viacrucis of gaming. In case you're wondering "Where the hell is the broken Gunducky?" Check this out: In the final level, after killing all the enemies, don't go to the exit, walk all the way forward across the canyon. It will take you 6-8 minutes of straight walking to find the Gunducky and unlock the "Remnants of the Past" trophy and another 8 minutes of walking back to the exit. Yeah, 16 minutes of pure walking around like an idiot.
"For now"? No way in hell I'm gonna play something like this again.
After finishing the levels you're gonna get this sequel threating ending. Is there's gonna be a sequel?, Very unlikely, and let's hope it stays discontinued for a very, very long time.
Graphically, is less eye-harming than Lizard Lady VS The Cats as the colors are much better and things are clear this time. The illumination is now better as we don't have black areas that blocked the visibility. Everything looks blocky and minimalistic beyond pathetic as if the demo of a bad Super FX game was passed through the HD filter and the characters look too polygonal as bad prototypes of a PS2 beta game. The life bar indicator is as lamest as you can imagine. ¿Have you ever wondered what is that "10" on the upper left side of the screen?, Believe it or not, that's your life bar. Even I could draw a much better life bar. The music of this game we have this electronic styled action flick score that would work with the game if it was more action packed and better made than this garbage, making it totally forgettable. But the music only lasts for the first 10 stages. The 11th and last level is completely absent of music.
VIDEOGAME IN A CURIOSITY WITH A FUN-FACT
- The hidden giant Gunducky in Stage 11 is a reference to Gunducky Industries/Gunducky Industries++, a horrible StarFox clone.
Thank God for those words, Nina.
Lady in a Leotard with a Gun is one of the worst action shooters you can find (if its not the worst of them). This makes Contra Rogue Corps look like a masterpiece and THAT is an accomplishment. Even for 50 cents its a god damn waste of money, even if it tries to justify its existence with trophies.
Now, if you want to play a good game with a lady in a leotard shooting things, play Triggerheart Exelica, Otomedius Excellent (Diol Twee to be exact) or, why not, Contra Shattered Soldier using Lucia. That would be waaaaay better than this bad joke of a game.
Emilie crying only means one thing: This game's among the worst.
