![]() ![]() You can guess so they hurt the mercenaries. He is also able to take out any enemy with one hit and smash down doors. This allows him to dodge projectiles and pass through partitions. Sometimes spectacular blends are diluted with spatial puzzles. There are even references to The Matrix at such moments. Sometimes the protagonist is locked in a room and forced to fight waves of enemies or dodge lasers. The character now escapes an explosive chain reaction and then escapes the shelling that emanates from the helicopter. There is no blood, no dismemberment and no dark conspiracy. There are no saves, so if you die the level will have to start over. The possessor of superpowers dies from a shot. The hero does not use firearms, but enemies willingly carry pistols, machine guns, grenade launchers and rocket launchers. Boss Shariman Stone unleashes all his servants against him. ![]() He sneaks into a skyscraper to steal the secret nuclear development, Mega-Plutonium. ![]() This game review is based on Nintendo Switch eShop and Steam copies sent to SideQuesting by the publisher.Mr Shifty tells of the adventures of the special agent of the same name. Shifty, especially for the Nintendo Switch maybe he’ll teleport directly into your heart as he did mine. I would definitely recommend picking up Mr. Teleporting around through walls and behind enemies is flawlessly executed and never gets old. The punches have weight to them and seeing the bodies of your enemies flying across the screen through walls is something I don’t think I can ever get over. When the game works, it works wonderfully. But with that all said, I still think it is a fun experience. Shifty lacks a lot of the polish that we should expect in games today, especially since it had been in an open beta form for the team to test with consumers. Shifty are short enough you can beat one or two during your daily transit or bathroom break. The added layer of portability is always a welcome factor and the levels in Mr. But if you look at the piece as something on its own, it’s actually a very fun, enjoyable yet buggy experience, especially on the Nintendo Switch. If you compare it to other games in the genre, it comes across as lacking. Their humor and knowledge shows in so much of the game even down to the odd glitch here and there. Team Shifty have years of developer experience under their belt. I have no idea if this was the actual intent of the creators, but I completely loved it when things wouldn’t actually work.

For a game that is supposed to be fast paced and difficult, it lacks in the AI department. That’s not even the biggest issue with Mr. I thought to myself, “this could be a hardware limitation of the Switch,” so I downloaded it on Steam and the problem persisted there as well. It felt like it was doing long form math and had to think about the conclusion of the physics before the bodies hit. While I was playing the game on the Switch there were a lot of times where I would hit an enemy into a book shelf or a destructible environment and the game would just freeze for a few seconds before continuing. I received two codes from the publisher, one for the Nintendo Switch and one for the PC. Shifty is well rounded in concept yet lopsided in execution, and there are a few minor technical flaws. What it doesn’t do, like its predecessor, is give you a technically solid experience. Shifty you can teleport a couple of feet in front of you, and also through walls. This game tries to emulate what its inspiration did and add another layer to it, teleportation. In Mr. The guys over at Team Shifty have made a top down action brawler in the vein of Hotline Miami. Shifty is: a simplistic game with a lot of attitude and style. Shifty, the opening screen features the main character with his back turned to you as an upbeat electronic drum mix starts to slowly drone in. The main menu is a good representation of what Mr. ![]()
