Cavern Kings Reviews

Absoloutly amazing game. Despite only bieng in early access, this game offers a huge variety of Characters, Power Ups, Weapons and Enemies. Each character has his/her own specail trait, that none of the others have. Each item you obtain makes you feel more powerful as the game goes on. Just when you think you are in the clear, you must take on one of the extremely challenging bosses. The music is baller too. 9/10

This game is waay too fun not to play. I first stumbled upon this on RockLeeSimle's channel on youtube. I picked up the free demo and loved it soo much. I knew that I had to get the beta. This is possiby the best $10 I've ever spent on steam. I've reccomended this game to most of my friends and they picked up and started playing with very little instruction (I just gave them a few hints.) Please buy this game it is a very great game for $10. Pros: >Easy to learn >Gets harder as you go >You can stack every power up > Never gets boring >There are plenty of interesting abilities >A good amount of different characters with unique abilities >Very little bugs and glitches >2 unlockable weapons (I guess 3 if you count Yoji's sword) Cons: >The dynamic screen is a little bit broken (Just turn it off in the options menu) >I can't get any achivments even though I did all of the requirements. >Just a few bugs >There aren't many unlockable weapons but all the interesting powerups make up for this TIPS: Get all the boxes you can on each of the floors. They usually contain money and items Look out for spikes, they can easily kill you You can fly using Kinetic Fists by holding down right mouse Turn off dynamic screen in the options menu There is a Cavern Kings wikia: http://cavern-kings.wikia.com/wiki/Cavern_Kings_Wiki Most of all have fun

Productions like these are exactly what stains the name early access. A lot of promises and very little return, Another developer just taking the initial money and starting another project he will most likely not end up finishing either. Some very hostile behaviour on social media towards the mere question of wether this game will deliver as promised leads me to believe that there is no intention of delivering a good game, nor refunding the money to those who helped kickstart it. It's an interesting premise with some nice execution, but severely lacking in content and not having received any updates in years. Regardless of enjoyment (To which there is some to have but it quickly gets stale) this kind of behaviour from developers should not be supported or tolerated. Do not buy this game if you expect a finished product, and instead support a developer that puts passion into his game and actually seems to give a **** about his product

Developer needs to become more active, and online co-op still hasn't been implemented. Cavern Kings has a lot of potential which it is not living up to at the moment. Until that changes I cannot recommend buying it. Update 03-12-2017: This game was supposed to be finished three years ago. It still hasn't, and developer Vine is pretty clear about their intention to not finish it. He stated on Twitter "Shoulda bought a better game". Which is exactly what you should do: buy something else than Cavern Kings.

This game has a lot of potential, but that's all it'll ever be. The developers have abandoned the game, and it's not worth purchasing as it is now. If this game ever goes on a heavy discount, then perhaps you can squeeze enough hours of fun out of it to have been worth the price, but you'll still be left disappointed at what is obviously an unfinished product.

Just reminding people that this game was abandoned and left in Early Access even though it had a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign. It is fun, otherwise. But you shouldn't support a dev like this.

After 8 years in Early Access it gets not recommended by default.

Really hard fun game. When you die, you have to start over. In each level you have 45 seconds to shoot enemies (to get EXP and gems) and to open chests with gems. Then roof will start falling with drills(?). You will simply move to next level by digging down! Really positive thing is that even tho this game is early-access, it still has NONE bugs! If you like quick games where you have to start over when you die, then you definitely have to buy this. I think its worth of the 10€. Multiplayer is confirmed and it will come soon. Cant wait. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEGzzubZFgk

This game had potential. The developers obviously weren't making enough money to continue development so they gave up, told no one, and quit. As a developer I know most of us are lazy and don't want to work for free. But take your game off the store. Stealing people's money is pathetic. EDIT: Steam needs to take this game down. It's 3 years past it's projected launch date with no communication from the developer. “Cavern Kings will be Early Access until a final build is released. It's difficult to say how long that will take but my current goal is to fully release the game by the end of 2014.” - Store Page UPCOMING FEATURES Finalizing the remaining characters and abilities Massively improved 4-player local co-op Online multiplayer for up to 4 players New character skins and cosmetics Better variety in room generation A handful of new weapons At least 2 more bosses to get killed by Finishing up the rest of the powerups Polishing the game for quality and knocking out all the bugs 4-player online multiplayer, NPC shops, new events and more!

Promising game, abandoned by devs with a myriad of outstanding bugs and balance issues. Truly unfortunate.
