Blood Alloy Demo

Blood Alloy is that kind of platformer that looks pretty easy to play at first, but after 30 seconds you die 2 times and you barely had any time to react. It’s a game in which you multiply the ‘fast-paced’ term by a lot and try to survive for as long as you can.

In Blood Alloy you play the role of a woman who has been engineered into a powerful cyborg without her will and now, she seeks revenge on those who have done this to her. Equipped with a very powerful laser gun and a sharp sword, she must explore her surroundings to find her makers.

The bad comes when you see that your enemies aren’t at all scared of you. In fact, the robots that come after you are vicious and extremely fast. Most of initial difficulty for gameplay comes from the fact that you won’t really have time to react to their charges and attacks but that’s actually part of the challenge. The controls will take a while to master. It will be a bit frustrating at first but as you get used to the pace of the game, it turns out to be quite fun.

Since this is an early version, Blood Alloy doesn’t come with a storyline or any kind of plot. You start off alone in a vast and seemingly empty space and you will have to shoot to pieces anything that looks hostile, which means everything else that moves.

Your character can perform some huge jumps, fast dashes and can fire with deadly accuracy. There are several types of enemies that will be out to get you and each one has a specific way of doing so. For this reason the game provides a multitude of weapons and ways in which you can blast them to pieces.

To sum things up, Blood Alloy is a very decent game. It can get a bit annoying at first but after you pace yourself, you’ll enjoy the good looking graphics, smooth animations and sound effects.
