unlabelledView post →Tomorrow is a Big Day for my silly little game about pixel lesbians and dancing skeletons. I am proper terrified but also the other thing. You know, scared too.
unlabelledView post →Edit 27/06/19: And they still do discount's, they should be banned from Steam. Edited: 02/01/19, DON'T BUY - No more answer's from devs. on forum and no more updates probably means that this game is dead I'm not going to delete the positive review because i like the game and it's still playable (at least for me because many can't play mainly because it's a always online game and devs. didn't fix anything), sad to see 1 more promising (99% sure) dead game. BUY/DON'T BUY, do what you want the…

unlabelledView post →WARNING : Do Not Buy review update June 2019 8 months with no Updates or communication from the devs or publisher. This eartly access game Big Day has been abandoned. Steam shoud de-list the Big Day a.s.a.p. and protect other Steam Users. - Old review I had fun playing it, but there have been NO updates or fix's. It "feels" abandoned. If the situation changes i will change this review, but untill then ... I do NOT recommend this game at this time
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →EDIT: EDIT: So its 2019 now, still no answer so this game is officially being labeled as Abandoned by myself and others.. DO NOT BUY IT, GAME AINT WORTH ♥♥♥♥ IF YOU CAN'T PLAY IT.. We as a community have given them since release to redeem it and nothing.. NOTHING... Its a shame.. But theyre already making a new game to do this again because Valve allows it. EDIT: Im now getting that same bug where you finish a level and the game says its cant connect to camp and crashes, and after that now…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gonna change my review from a punch to the gut to a beacon of hope. Developers, please don't abandon this game, some of us feel duped. This game has potential (that's why we bought it) and its in early access with NO improvements since launch. The reloading system needs some serious improvement or needs to be removed all together, get some skins for the Machete, make unlocking stuff more straight forward and simple. BAM fixed and you can actually make money off the work you've already invested…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →!!!!! DO NOT BUY !!!!!!! Why: - It states Single-Player, but it is Multi-Player based game => You need internet connection ! - Crashes have not been fixed for a while
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Never going anywhere from day one, devs abandoned. Luckily i was wise and got refund before 2 hours.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Load game... Do the starting mission when you first log in. Go to world map, go to first city to meet crucial NCP. Click on said city; "There was a problem, please contact support." Kden.... I'll wait I think.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unplayable, "Survivor base is little busy, please try again later." 12-13fps before menu while loading and chinese? text appears with warning triangle. Probably tries to connect to a server shutdown long ago, absolutely abandonware and should be removed from the store.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Was kinda fun but got bored and didn't bother finishing it. According to forum the devs have abandoned the game.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Big Day is a top down, pixel art, RPG, zombie shooter. This is one hard core game. You'll probably want to pay attention to tactics and not pick up health drops unless you actually need them so you don't run out. Shooting an ambulance until it blows up will usually bag a a health pack though and a cop car a box of ammo. It has upgrade items like armour and new guns you can find and outfit your character with when you setup camp along with other RPG elements. The best part considering how hard…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great pixel art and sound design. The various zombies look quite real.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The violent gritty pixelated gory struggles of survivors against the diverse infected is the norm here. Scavenge, kill, repeat. A captivating chiptune soundtrack accompanies you along the way, immersing you in this apocalyptic landscape. The weapon variety and gameplay feels responsive and intuitive, allowing you to customize your experience appropriately. The reflex based reloading mechanic is a surprisingly neat addition to the game, rewarding quick thinking combined with fast reflexes in…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a bad game so far. A little ruff around the edges, but so far looks good.

unlabelledView post →Big day today! One of the final exams of my BAS Cybersecurity degree program in a couple hours, followed up by an interview for a very interesting position that utilizes my core skill set. Fingers crossed, hopefully I'll make a good impression! The job hunt has been rough for me, been searching for a few months now. Demoralizing to say the least. Persistence pays, they say, and I'm hoping to prove that today. The power of positivity (and massive amounts of preparation)! I suppose I can mention…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In coffee terms, Big Day, is a rich full blend, it takes a classic recipe, gives it a little twist using high class ingredients and the result is a magnificent coffee full of flavours that blend excellently, made by baristas who may not have mastered their craft as of yet but show undeniable talent, simply delicious.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As of writing this I have 0.8 hrs, and it's good. Some things need fixing, overall good game. Graphics: Good graphics, I would have liked 1980x1080 (1080p) resolution though. Sound: Good gun sound, music could be better. The asian music would have been better, if it was just asian music. No rock involved if you know what I mean, overall music is good. Controls: There good, but needs fixing, and there needs to be button configuration. I want my dodge for example, to be a mouse button at…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →EDIT - I'm just a little disappointed if I'll be honest - The game was satisfying once you got around some bugs and some questionable mechanics, I was looking forward to helping and giving feedback but it seems this game is abandoned and we can expect no more content, support or much needed fixes - Unless they pull a CubeWorld on us. I'll leave my previous review below for anyone who is curious at all. The game definitely has some areas of work that are needed, - Extra work around translation…
