GP: "In this day and age, you'll be hard-pressed to find many indie games that doesn't make heavy use of pixel graphics. Yes, there are some, but it seems to be the primary art style. That is probably one reason why the upcoming side-scrolling shooter titled Ballpoint Universe looks so interesting."
Davis from Denkiphile: "When it comes to indie games, they generally deliver subpar 3D CG visuals, due to budget constraints that make it hard to compete with larger companies, or opt for 2D graphics instead, which has plateaued enough that even small development teams can use the medium well enough to be on par with large commercial releases. With Ballpoint Universe Infinite, Arachnid Games opted for neither of these and gives us high stylized visuals with everything drawn entirely in ballpoint pen. Don’t let that discourage you, though; there is a top-tier gaming experience awaiting shmup fans here."
GG3 picks up on more game bundles going around, with seconds to spare, due to some third party issues. Still, this would be the time to hop onto the Indiegala January, which has 10 games, such as Deadly Premonition, Viscera Cleanup Detail and more. Ballpoint Universe will fill in the details. Also, make sure to watch the video inside for full bundle giveaways.
There are a total of eight games in The Indie Gala January that are then split into two tiers. For a minimum of a dollar, you can pick up three games; one is Two Brothers, which is worth way more than a dollar.
I love the style to this game.
