Weebish Mines Portable

Updated: Dec 8, 2020





















































About This Game "Once upon a time, there was a family of 4 who lived in a log cabin by the mines. Everything was cool. But one day somebody left the door open and all their pets ran away! This is the story of how they got them back." Weebish Mines is a kind of spiritual successor to "Legacy of the Wizard", my favorite NES game from a million years ago. Help the family search the giant underground mines in ye ol' Metroidvania fashion for their missing pets. Use gems to fuel special items like pickaxes, guns, oxygen tanks, keys, and bombs. Don't get STATUE-IZED or it's game over, man! Game over! 7aa9394dea Title: Weebish MinesGenre: Adventure, IndieDeveloper:DXF GamesPublisher:DXF GamesRelease Date: 20 Apr, 2017 Weebish Mines Portable weebish mines This game deserves recognition. I like the challenge and thought it was really fun.. This game deserves recognition. I like the challenge and thought it was really fun.. UPDATED REVIEW**changed from thumbs down to thumbs up*After speaking with the developer and trying quite a few different things to get this game working, I have managed to get it running with less frame rate stuttering. I am cautiously optimistic about the game and, provided you are able to run it without the same issues I ran into, there is a good game in there. Plus the dev is very helpful and keen to work on his game.*OLD REVIEW*I am sure there is an interesting game here,but the frame rate makes the whole thing ugly and unplayable.https://youtu.be/B3735kJSbyw. I just played this game for the first time and only for about 15 minutes because I am trying out several games in my Steam library for the first time.I really appreciate it when a solo Indie chooses low resolution (ideally ultra low resolution) for their games allowing them to focus on packing in more gameplay. And this developer has done exactly this!The little I have played so far was very fun. The gameplay is simple and very solid. The developer has really packed a lot of depth into the game. It's like opening a tiny package and somehow it contains much more than you would imagine possible. Everything is very well executed from what I have experienced.The ultra low resolution graphics are very well done and create an interesting world to explore that is populated with many different kinds of enemies and collectibles.Music was reasonable (not annoying like some games) and the sound fx are very good and fit the on-screen activity that "produced" the sound.In summary...PROSA lot more depth than you would expectVery responsive controlsExcellent interesting gameplayExcellent ultra low rez graphicsGreat atmosphereCONSI wish I could jump off the laddersFor those using keyboard the controls are fixed to one set only (although they are a standard for retro style games I prefer them switched around on the Jump and Attack key so it took a few minutes to adjust to that). Of course, I should have used a controller and next time I will.EXCELLENT GAME EASILY WORTH MORE THAN THE TINY AMOUNT OF MONEY THE DEVELOPER IS CHARGING FOR IT!.

I should have done more homework first. Cute game, cute idea, as I loved Legacy of the Wizard back in the day, but this game differs from that in some key ways.Legacy of the Wizard was a game about exploration. Yes it was hard, but it was forgiving. If you wasted resources, you could just kill monsters to farm up some more. This game is not like that at all. Everything is limited. EVERYTHING. That alone makes this less an exploration game and more of a strategy game, and a punishing one at that. Some people may like that, but it's not my bag at all.I can't complain at the price I paid, but I'm still not recommending this, because IMO, comparing this to Legacy of the Wizard is a bit disingenuous.. This game deserves recognition. I like the challenge and thought it was really fun. DXF Games Insanity Bundle!: Hey everyone, I figured out how to set up a bundle for all 3 of my games up here as well as the soundtrack to Just a Cleric.The bundle is 40% off the total retail value and includes:Just a Cleric: Scholar of the First WussJust a Cleric OSTEquin: The LanternWeebish MinesThe good thing about how this is set up is that you won't get charged for any of these you already own, and the 40% off is on TOP of any current sales going on with the individual games. http://store.steampowered.com/bundle/3314Thank you fo your continued support!!. Patch #1: Hi guys!Tonight I've done some changes to the game which will make for a better experience for everyone:ADDITIONS:. Update #2: Hello again!Yoritoshi brought it to my attention that upon pressing the F12 key to take a screenshot of the final credits screen (to capture the total time played) it triggered the "Ok, I'm all done with the game let's go to the title screen!" action.So this has now been fixed.For the inconvienence, I've also added 5 more achievements to the game which brings the total up to 27.One of the achievements is to beat the game in under an hour.Can you do it??. Ladder Bug- Fixed!: The recent not recommended review of Weebish Mines mentioned there was a ladder bug where placing a ladder down next to a door got the guys stuck. Since I'd never heard of this before I asked for more info and then tried it myself and it's true: If you tried to place a ladder down while standing almost on top of any door this would happen. It's funny what thousands of hours testing can miss sometimes. Luckily I was able to fix this issue in about 5 minutes, which has now been rolled out to you guys. If only all problems could be solved so fast! So remember, if you have any problems it's always better to let me know first as I'm not your typical dev and will try to address problems quickly and work with you. Thanks, and enjoy!http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1208915807. It's a Weebish Mines update!?: Hey!I was pretty busy working on my Equin: The Lantern stuff however I had some time tonight and worked in some nice little things for Weebish Mines as well.Shoulder Button Support. Achievements are coming!: I plan on creating achievements for this starting tonight, to be added to the game shortly thereafter.I wasn't really sure if people wanted them but I was wrong More to follow!. Mere days before release!: MERE, I say!Weebish Mines will drop this Friday, April 21st for everyone. In addition to being a tough, old school Metroidvania it'll also be 20% off the already low retail price of $2.99.So what can you get instead of Weebish Mines this Friday? 2 McDonalds hashbrowns 3 donuts at Dunkin Donuts A few tubes of an acrylic paint set 1/3 cup of a small Starbucks anythingIf you could buy Weebish Mines 14 times for your friends, you could've also named a star at Star Register.com, but honestly that's the stupidest thing ever.If you could buy Weebish Mines 169,583 times for your friends, you could have also bought a 2016 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, and then we'd all smack you.. Tell your friends!: May 19th is just around the corner..https://store.steampowered.com/app/853610/
