60 of 79 · most liked firstThe game is out in 5 hours but I see the pic already on my Steam, so here is my latest cover: the Gunbrella OST. I played through the whole game for this and it's is very cool. And the OST really stood out, with echoes of Burial. Wish they'd do a vinyl edition with my pic 🤓
unlabelledView post →Was playing a little Gunbrella on the steam deck, and I'm not sure I'm enjoying it all that much. I enjoyed Gato Roboto from the same dev, and mechanically the game feels good, the movement and weapons feel responsive, but I'm not vibing with it and can't put a finger on why.
unlabelledView post →Just completed Gunbrella from @devolverdigital.com. Cracking little game and a lot of floaty fun toting fun. With a little cult freakyness thrown in for good measure.
unlabelledView post →Gunbrella from Doinksoft is a year old and legally we have to make the game 50% off on Steam.
unlabelledView post →Decided to start up Gunbrella tonight as a nice palette cleanser! I've played the demo, which is the whole first portion of the game, so nothing new yet but I'm enjoying it again so far! 😁

unlabelledView post →#RandomGameSaturday This is an NES inspired shump, where you play as a Gunslinger and Vampiress It's only ever been released physically, so you can't buy it on the eShop… The game was also recently re-released in The Doinksoft Collection, alongside Gato-Roboto & Gunbrella. That's a great deal~ 🧛♀️

unlabelledView post →Finished Gunbrella. I liked it. But, if there's ever been a game where the execution hasn't lived up to the concept this is that game. Like it flows beautifully. The gunning and umbrella-ing feels super satisfying but the game doesn't let you do enough of it. #blutoid #gunbrella

unlabelledView post →The Gunbrella demo was quite long and, I guess I should have expected it, but man - not having the save transfer to the full game meant I've had to go through the start of the game again, which obviously isn't very exciting second time round so soon. #blutoid #gunbrella

unlabelledView post →GUNBRELLA is now available and what a game it is! Don't take my word for it, I'm biased as fuck. Well done, Doinksoft! ☂️ gunbrella.com
unlabelledView post →Game would have worked better as a simple 10 stage affair as the talking to townspeople and super duper thin-metroidvania-ness just constantly stops the satisfying Gunbrella-ness. It's such a good mechanic and it's perfectly executed but the game barely seems to let you use it.
unlabelledView post →Would you pass up a diamond for $1.19? No? Then don't let this gem escape your grasp while it's <checks notes> 85% off. Fans of gatos, robotos, and roboto gatos will have a hoot! It's pricier, but I'm tempted by the Doinksoft collection for Switch with this, Gunbrella, and a physical-only game...
unlabelledView post →Gunbrella Started: September 2023 The only game that I had an OKAY experience with in January. The story is whatever, and the characters have lots of charm, but the gameplay wore on me a bit. However, it may have the best music track out of all January games: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHM9... 7/7🧵
unlabelledView post →Avalon or Bust! We're finishing Gunbrella this stream (and if the game runs a bit short, we'll play something else afterwards) www.twitch.tv/theriverblues
unlabelledView post →Tomorrow’s game will be a tossup between Firewatch, Gunbrella or Pepper Grinder. Wanted to do something short (and maybe one sitting playthrough?) as a palette cleanse before picking a long form game.
unlabelledView post →I tried to pick a good variety instead of all the same type of game. BRC is basically Jet Set Radio! Haiku is a wonderful bite-sized metroidvania with lovely pixel art. Gunbrella is hard to explain, it’s sort of a narrative driven 2D action game with some exploration elements and a great story.

unlabelledView post →But anyway, got a bit further past that but it's late (like 4:30am - working lates is not fun for the sleep pattern) so have had to call it a night. So far: well worth £2.99. I do wish there was more Gunbrella-ing than talking mind. Game is fun when it actually lets you play it and shoot things.

unlabelledView post →I forgot to post about finishing Gunbrella. it's an incredible game! loved it to the end, highly recommended. Only thing!! I found out there's a comic but you can only buy it with the game on steam!? so in order to read it, I have to re-buy the game, which I'll do, but damn
unlabelledView post →Gunbrella is probably one of my favorite games I ever played. I played Doinksoft previous game Gato Roboto and it was fun and good but Gunbrella is definitely a step up as with a story and with a gameplay when I played I also saw some similarities with Celeste.
unlabelledView post →Loved Gunbrella! The movement in that game is so much fun.
unlabelledView post →Been a pretty busy day with waiting to install the new stove among other errands. I'll push what was suppose to be today's stream to tomorrow, and probably start a new game (Viewfinder.) I'll aim to finish Gunbrella on Sunday.
unlabelledView post →Oh nice!! How are you enjoying the game?? I've heard a lot of people raving about it! :D I've been playing an indie called Gunbrella! It's been a lot of fun so far, and it's shorter. I needed that after Dragon Quest and Dragon Age back to back lol

unlabelledView post →Beat Gunbrella tonight. Solid game with cool, unique mechanics. It takes a bit to get used to the controls, which I liked. Unfortunately, the last quarter of the game felt rushed and not balanced. Much easier than the beginning of the game which was a fun challenge Fun tho, like a 7/10 overall
unlabelledView post →~ 2023 Game Completions ~ Game #30 ~ Gunbrella (2023) / Nintendo Switch: Fun action/platforming mechanics they're underused in favor of searching for the next story sequence. A lot of untapped potential for a killer sequel.
unlabelledView post →Just wrapped up Gunbrella! What a fantastic experience. doinksoft has become another indie studio at this point that I will by a game from sight unseen. Traversal & combat is some of the best out there and they have some of my favorite writing in the space. Play this.
unlabelledView post →Gunbrella 9/10. Easily one of my favorite games of the year, with a narrative I adore, a world I loved being in, and characters that I want more of. Only complaint is that I never really felt the need to switch ammo types much, and that I wish there were more game to play. <3
unlabelledView post →Genuinely considering refunding Gunbrella entirely off its save system. Game keeps enemies dead while letting you restore health at checkpoints, so attrition is basically the name of the game whenever they forget to lock the door behind you or whatever.

unlabelledView post →Update: Found out their previous game, Dark Scrolls, is plagued with bugs & no support since launch in late June which is strange considering Gunbrella was 2 years ago. Didn’t even KNOW they had another game come out a month ago.

unlabelledView post →I'm playing Gunbrella and what a game! it looks amazing, the gameplay is really good, I'm on hard and it is hard! having a blast. Oh! and the music is really good too, great game so far
unlabelledView post →Finished Gunbrella today. It’s a very quirky little action platformer with a ridiculous but fun premise. The bosses were a little easy, but the game is more about the levels and quests anyway. As part of a three-pack of games, totally worth it. #gamesky

unlabelledView post →I have recently finished 'Gunbrella'. Its a solid little game. Didn't take long to finish, normal mode leans toward the easy side. Story was kinda so, so ( one of the villains I liked didn't even get a boss fight ) but the overall atmosphere was great !
unlabelledView post →2. Gunbrella Coming right after Katana Zero, this was unfortunately a little underwhelming. The movement, story, and game as a whole were pretty well crafted, but it just seemed to do nothing special. Still a one-of-a-kind experience though.
unlabelledView post →Dave the Diver, WrestleQuest, Gunbrella and Zero Sievert are some pixel art games that eat up a lot of my time. Selaco's fun and some slightly older Sony games run well like Days Gone, Horizon Zero Dawn and Spider-Man. Mad Max game is great portable.
