Tiny Pixels Vol. 2: Stormy Knights

Retro-style 2D action game in which you must save the Princess

Whilst Stormy Knights has appealing visuals, tight controls, a pleasingly simple premise, and music that suits the ambience – after a while the rigid structure of the game, and minor variances in how each battle plays out wore me down a little and even though this is a short game, I feel like my patience had worn out by the time I approached the endgame. A decent little title to dip in and out of in short bursts, but it does feel like it needs more variation or depth to get the most out of the premise.

Simplicity can sometimes work, and this isn’t a terrible low-budget affair, but the repetitive grind gets tougher to enjoy as you go
