Reprisal game dev diary

Web Reprisal press mentions so far

Here’s a short round up from some of the things being said about Reprisal since it’s launch so far!

Edge Magazine:
“Its chunky, and fashionable, pixel visuals are augmented with an attractive, tilt-shifted depth of field effect that gives the game a unique look, while the cheerful tutorial leads you through the game’s territory-conquering gameplay with easy charm.”

TIG Source
“I highly encourage this game not only for its old-school game play in homage to the god games of yore, but also for the fantastic audio-visual presentation …”

Kotaku
“This Free Game Takes Populous And Gives It a Sworcery Makeover”

Indie Game Magazine
“…the charming simplicity of Reprisal’s mechanics still never fail to put a smile on my face even when it all inevitably backfires”

Rock Paper Shotgun
“Reprisal has officially launched, and it hits many of the beats recent attempts on the god game throne like From Dust couldn’t quite wrap their giant disembodied hands around. ”

Indie Games
“In short, it’s all kinds of awesome and you should be playing it today. Monday blues? Forget about them. Go drown rival tribes instead. It’d make it all better. ”

The Verge
“It preserves all the terraforming and village-conquering strategy action of the original, but the tilt-shifted pixel art style is gorgeous and right up to date “

Digital Tools
”When graphic-designers meet game-design – this can be a very fruitful combination. The game Reprisal is a good evidence. Artwork and in game-graphic of Reprisal is one of the most clean and charming pixelartwork, that came within the last years – playing in the same league as Sword and Sworcery or Fez.”
