60 of 128 · most liked firstThis game's nice. Maybe not GOTY, but most things work well enough. The structure is simple enough - to beat the campaign (which is something you'll do multiple times), you have to get past several "chapters", each concluding with a boss fight. Areas consists of a large "hub" (which has paths to other areas and constantly spawning enemies), multiple "objective areas" (where you fight a number of enemies to unlock the path to the boss), multiple buildings (which are also filled with enemies and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Walking Vegetables This is a wonderful Twin stick shooter and works great with the Xbox 360 controller. If you love these style shooters, Im sure you will enjoy this game also. Press Y to change weapons, I like to save good weapons and ammo for the boss fights and just use the basic gun blaster for all vegies that cross my path. You can use 2 styles of weapons, eg like throwing knifes, daggers, boomerangs etc as you find them, but there is only a limit of how many weapons you can carry,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After receiving a copy of the game, I decided to play it, as you do. I was very surprised about the style of the game in general and my first impression on this was that I didn't think it would work, but in the end, it was very appealing to look at, and the mechanics of the game were somewhat similar to Hotline Miami & The Binding of Isaac. From playing the game I really enjoyed it and found it visually pleasing and the gameplay was seamless and I will be continuing to play this for some…

The Walking Vegetables is a twin-stick shooter in a world where the vegetables have all gone crazy (fruits too)! You’re under attack, and you’ve got to find a way to clear each zone by getting…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game doesn't have any sort of "easy mode" for people who want a fun twin stick shooter, but don't have all the time in the world to continuously fail to beat the first level over and over. Sorry, but until the game gets some sort of accessibility, it's a hard no from me.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's got co-op, piles upon piles of different guns and by far one of the most fun looking premise and enemies in a game I've ever seen. Great stuff!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game's really good and I like it, but the Dragon Fruit boss is WAY too hard. Any and every damage I do to it it just instantly heals. It's way too easy to die at that boss considering how long it actually takes to get there. Overall great game nonetheless.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is awesome and in the style of enter the gungeon or isaac. If you are a fan of those types of games look no further! This beast is pretty sweet.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Generic top-down shooter, can't say it immersed me with its gameplay.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →roguelike below average quality. Tried to like it, but can't
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very boring. Samey gameplay and nothing seems to change. Not even sure what the point of the game is (shoot everything and then wait until it respawns?).
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a bad game, but there were a times, and it's not so long ago, when games like these exactly like these were freeware on internet games rooms, no they are on cesspit which is steam today, and they want 10euro for these ridiculous nonsences. Interesting idea and visual, looks and sounds like retro, and it's boring and unfunny just like most of ♥♥♥♥♥, they were funny games like DOOM Heretics etc but no one of them are like these, sorry devs, it's not bad game, but it's not funny and boss…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, a little too hard.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent graphics and smooth gameplay! Great game overall!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played a bit more of the game than the steam time counter says. This game is a breath of fresh vegetable based air. It might sound stupid, but the enemies really make a lot of sense. Broccoli has lots of branches. Potatoes go underground. It makes the game fairly intuitive yet still filled with lots of variety. There were some annoyances when I played during a free weekend a while back, but those seem all cleared up now. That's a major plus too. It might not be as filled and finely…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A REALLY great hidden gem of a game. The Walking Vegetables is genuinely fun, addictive and funny. There is SO much content in this supposedly little game. There are tons of enemy types with their own attack variations, animations and looks, there are many unique bosses (I've only defeated 2 so far) and tons of unlockables - be it guns, throwables or melee weapons. Everything in this game is original. The music is great too as is the art style. If you're thinking about picking this one up, do…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing. Still Running has found the one way to make a game better than ZKWR. 10 out of 10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little game. Works really well with a gamepad, It's challenging and great music!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game. Nice graphics and music and sound effects are made well.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great controls, good music, lots of of guns and living vegetables to shoot. What's there not to like? Broccolis are depicted accurately as tough bad asses.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You locked the upgrades behind silly play achievements and require a boss dropped currency to purchase them as well. I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In general quite a fun and pretty well made little game. Loved the idea and aesthetic. The main let down and the reason why I can't recommend it is the save system. Sure it's a roguelike, but having a system where the player is not able to save his CURRENT run and come back to it later is just plain stupid.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Edit: After the developers response I gave the game one more shot. Ive since reinstalled the game and it no longer has problems with continually rotating my aim and i can now aim by direction. If you have problems with it not letting you aim by direction try reinstalling. So for now ill be changing my review to a thumbs up. Pretty fun and quirky top down shooter.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Quirky retro title, best bought during sale The walking vegetables, is a throwback to the 8-16bit era. Combat itself seems to be primarily designed for controller support. Still very much playable with K/M though be prepared to mash right click for melee attacks. Not a particularly challenging game, as it's the sort of title that you can finish in a day without much hassle. Content wise the campaign consists of 3 cities which generate random areas which you have to clear to gain access to the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Some folks in Finland decided one day "Hey, let's put together Zombies (Ate My Neighbors) and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!" and I'm like "Yeah that's smart, pfft". Joke's on me, it turned out to be one of the better twin-stick shooters of the last couple of years. Lots of replayability, well laid out hub worlds, cool weapons, perks, CO-OP MODE which so many TSS's ignore for the sake of pretentious game design (not necessarily looking at 10tons but certainly devs trying to bite their style),…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Try to clear the town of this evil vege menace with the only thing they understand; Brute force! Cutting Carrots, Shooting Squashes, Blasting Broccoli to Bits, all vegetables are ironically dead meat. https://youtu.be/1Lmv_8iNz-U
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very fun game with a lot of hidden details. The controls are tight, the music's all bangers, the guns are plenty and powerful. Vegetables are also a really fun idea for an enemy design. It's a shame that it flew under the radar when it got released.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a blast! I Stumbled upon it by accident and man am I glad I did. The walking vegetables is a twin stick roguelite where you're tasked to destroy mutated fruits and vegetables. You get a bunch of different guns as you clear out building after building all to get the key to the boss. There was so much variation. I saw new enemies with each playthrough and the bosses also change. There are plenty of weapons and each feel unique and like they have weight behind their shots. The game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An amazing, criminally underrated twin stick roguelike.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is an excellent top-down arena shooter (with randomised elements).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is super fun! Shoot those veggies!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →a massive amount of different weapons (to your basic shotgun to a pepper that shoots fireballs), a super ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing soundtrack and fun bosses, combined with the silly humour that this game has, makes it a really worth game to play. the only "negative" thing about this game (not really negative because its not the devs fault that i only have friends on the internet) its the lack of online co-op.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →yup yup yup yup yup yup
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is what you get when you combine The Binding of Isaac + Geometry Wars and add a dash of Plants vs. Zombies, only now the plants are the bad guys. If you compare this to when BoI came out and the original version of GW; it's at least as good as either of those were and it's an addictive combination of both. Semi-random notes: - I didn't use to hate tomatoes or oranges, but now I do. - I once fought a fire extinguisher and it won. - Orange slices are mean little b4stards.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Walking Vegetables is a 16-bit rogue-like/action game, where your main objective is to explore, fight, take loots, survive and discover new areas. It seems that at 1980’s, an evil alien race has invaded Earth, turning all vegetables into crawling, bawling, mauling abominations. You are about to join Department Radical, the grooviest police force on Earth to clean all this mess and return the peace to the streets. You have to play several chapters divided in areas where an army of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this over the free weekend and it was alright. Maybe worth $5, not $10. It's still better than Nuclear Throne because they at least give your pistol autofire instead of making you click for each bullet fired. Weapons are sometimes pretty rare for a while until you find them so you are stuck using the pistol for a large part of the first level. You have to turn off some god awful "vhs effect" that makes the game look like it has horrific screan tearing. You also will want to turn off…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this is a time limited key. I had no expectations of this game but I wasn't that impressed. I found the maps annoying as only one building in unlocked at a time forcing you to trapse around the map to get the the unlocked building whilst avoiding the spawning vegetables monsters that home in on you, but have very little game value other than to soak up your hard earned limited ammo as they mass rush you, the unlimited ammo gun is next to useless against them. My play time is very…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Change the music in ESC menu, that sizzle is awful. I got a headache
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Everything right about indiegame dev. The Walking Vegetables is made by the insanely talented dev behind Zombie Kill of the Week. That game is a cult classic masterpiece for relaxing zombie slaughtering and fun multiplayer zombie slaughtering. When the Walking Vegetables was announced I didn't know what to make of it, but I bought it anyway. I was treated to a really interesting and hard rogue-lite game that infuriated me but for some reason kept bringing me back. I didn't love it, but I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun Indie style top down shooter! Power ups, guns, and vegetables need I say more? Fun local co-op also. A fun quick relaxing game to slay some veggies and try to get some more loot, I've really enjoyed it so far.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game seems to be inspired from that 1 episode of Power Puff Girls, where the alien broccoli attacks the townsville's parents. The kids then take the matter in their own hands. The game is really very underrated and unfortunately didn't get the love it deserved. The game play and music is very satisfying. The developers did a really great job just like their other title Zombie Kill of The Week Reborn.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The ultimate buddy cop game with a friend
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →That's not very ableist of you!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →well, the game was a bit short but i really do recommend it. had a blast playing it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A short, twin stick shooter game against vegetable nightmares. Finished campaign in one session (15 minutes). Controller recommended. The music is pretty good too. The weapons are a blast to use.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game seems very cool and fun but it lags everytime I play it, I even updated my video drivers (for another game) yesterday and it still lags :( It lags enough to where I really dont want to play it because it is quite annoying. Which again, is sad because this game is fun
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a gem of a game! If you love twin stick shooters you owe it to yourself to pick up this game. Even if you don't really like twin stick shooters, you ought to. This game will put a smile on your face while playing it. So many references, so many guns with each guns that feels useful and effective, so many creative uses for enemy veggies. Looks and sounds are classic 80's. The whole vibe equals to Hotline Miami. Buy it and play it! It won't disappoint.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. The gameplay is loyal to a well-made roguelike twin-stick shooter. It is by no means easy; you will die and probably get mad at the stupid lemons a whole bunch before succeeding at the first stage. The boss fights and intermediate fights are entertaining. Full controller support is a very positive added bonus. The setting, plot and theme can only be described as the developers being so high on acid that they soar to space and witness the earth being flat (in a good way). There is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Veggies have gone buckwild...The Walking Vegetables is one of the better twin stick shooters I have played, and I have played just about every twin stick known to man, as I absolutely love the genre. This game is from the maker of the classic "Zombie Kill of the Week", and it shows, as this game has some of same elements and fun factor. TWV is a hidden gem and has been sorely overlooked, including by myself. I bought this game on sale, but after playing it, it's well worth the full price for…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this from the developer on twitter and decided to check it out. Great game about fighting hordes of vegetables and fruits in a city. I had a blast and enjoy the cool pixel art style which makes it even more fun. Loads of things to do and lots of weapons to choose from. Love playing this game overall. Its probably even better with 2 people playing. Would've totally been worth buying if I didn't get this free. Thanks for making this cool indie game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →glad I'm not a vegan
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super fun twin-stick hits all the right marks. Awesome music, great controls, cool character designs, and a real feeling of "oomph" behind the weapons. It's also deep and replayable. Well worth the money. Thanks Maximum PC for turning me on to this gem.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I personally really liked it, especially the music.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"We used to sell vegetables. But they walked away." Enjoyed killing some apples that are definitely vegetables 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is amazing, wish i had more time to play it at the moment but when i do play, it is amazing. Constant updates are being released from the release date of the game which is good to.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is freekin' awesome! You get to gun down Broccoli. Who doesn't want to do that? The 80s vibe, the controls, the action, the graphics. Everything about this game is great. Really enjoyed playing it. Not enough health available though. Seems to be lots of health when I don't need it and none when I do. It's the same with Shotgun shells. Plenty when I don't need 'em. Nowhere to be found when I'm low. Well worth the €8 I spent on it. Check out my video to see it in action if you want.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →1st time playing this and it was so so SO nerve-wreckingly fun as F! --in a good way of course! The notion I had before this being kinda like "hotline miami" is false. It's nothing like that - this makes you hate lemons, onions, and every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ vegetable, fruit, berry there is - doesn't explain much, you just go and kill those damn veggies "Mom told me to eat my vegetables - I told her that I'd kill 'em" ;)
