So PAX East flew right by! I’m an exhausted mess, but I had such a great time! A fair share of journalists stopped by over the weekend, and I’ve rounded up their words below.
Mark Labbe at PlayStation LifeStyle has the basics covered:
We Are Doomed is great to look at, and even more great to play. Instead of having long-ranged bullets or missiles, players are armed with a somewhat short laserbeam. […] The laserbeam forces player to properly manage their movements and space around themselves, getting close enough to enemies to kill them but staying far enough away to not be killed.
I love how James Cunningham at Hardcore Gamer describes the new Endless mode:
There’s also a new Endless mode that spawns enemies in an infinite cascade of popcorn enemies, ramping up in difficulty far more quickly than the main campaign as the horde zones you in and forces you to manage the space around you rather than worrying about screen-clearing.
And finally, The Queen of the Nerds sums it up quite nicely:
I would play the hell out of this game. The colors are very eye catching and the music is good. I think my favorite part of this game is the unique and colorful bad guys. Blast ‘em!
