Noisy Pixel reviews Bright Memory from developer FYQD and publisher Playism available now on Xbox Series X.
Are you too busy to play long video games? These six best short games for busy people won't take much time out of your schedule.
Bright Memory is uniquely positioned as both a first-person shooter and an action game. Unfortunately, severe technical issues mar its unique combat.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Before starting Bright Memory, I appreciated the growing democratization of the game developer scene and respected what the next-gen tools can accomplish for a solo developer; after playing it, I still held said thoughts... and didn't like the game. It's one of those quintessential examples of an effective shooting/hack-n-slash rhythm being consistently interrupted by technical frustrations, design mishaps, and FYQD deciding to overcharge for a glorified tech demo."
disagree with this review, its about a long demo length at about an hour, but its a ton of fun. Sure its incoherent because its a bunch of ideas, but the gameplay is pretty good and very fun, moreso than alot of fps games out there like call of duty. It also looks really good, aside from some of the npc facial animations. Absolutely worth a try before the full game comes out next year.
Please note, the reviewer is reviewing Bright Memory (released 2019), not Bright Memory Infinite as showcased at the Series X event.
"However, after finally playing a verticle slice of the adventure, I wish I would have waited until Bright Memory: Infinite."
