Trigonarium Reviews

I've made it my life's mission to give a negative review for making me unplug my speakers to avoid hearing damage. Let's try setting the volume of the random song that plays when launching the game to about 50% instead of 500%, may we ?

I bought this game on a whim. For the price you have to pay, you get a game that's: 1. Easy to read 2. offers a unique boosting mechanic 3. Is filled with all kinds of interesting game modes What's also fun is that there's even a local multiplayer feature. So if you and your friend enjoy shooting abstract shapes and keeping your eyes peeled when the arenas re-configure themselves, give this game a try!

definitely worth the £2 it costs, have maybe 4 hours played, (offline so it doesnt show up here) lets face it, this is a geometry wars clone, but its slower pace, dash move, and confined, shifting levels give it a little something different. The music is nice, and i rather enjoy the pastel colours and the very slow nature of your "pew pew gun" and the fact that there's no smart bombs. Its a crying shame steam or pc never got geometry wars 2, but my recommendation is get bot GW3 and trigonarium. Hell Even get GW1: retro evolved for the pittance that trigoranirium and GW1: RE go for. Bargain at the price, and a nice change of pace from Geometry wars

This is a pretty great but small twin stick shooter, made by a developer that I'm a fan of and who has made a lot of other niche but unique and fun games you should check out. The gist of this is a sort of level based twin stick shooter, featuring a couple of interesting mechanics like being able to perform a charge dash and constantly transforming levels. It's one of those games that, if you get into it, constantly tempts you to come back and try to beat your high score (which is made more interesting by the temporary multiplier, you have to put a lot of thought into keeping enemies alive, much more than any other game of this type I've played). The art style is great, very trippy and psychedelic while still being very readable. The additional gamemodes are okay, but could be done better, and the bosses are repetitive. But have some nice designs and the few attacks they do have are fun. For the price it's basically a steal, if you're into twin sticks you don't really have a reason not to check this out. I'm looking forward to Sektori and whatever is made after that!

Plays very similar to Geometry wars, so basically your standard twin stick shooter high score attack. I'm not really a fan of the "in-the-zone" ("this game needs meth to complete") kind of gameplay, but I found this to be somewhat more relaxed and also has more content (modes, levels, bosses) than for example geometry wars or say super hexagon - which is not a twin stick shooter, but you know the type: frantic, requires high concentration, survive as long as you can then die and start all over. A red flag is that the game is easier and slower on older hardware (framerate based logic?), which I believe to be a sign of bad implementation. The achievements seems to be well balanced and I might continue to hunt them down (at about 40% now). I guess a thumbs up is in place. It's not great, but I have come back for more several times now over a few weeks. No longer play sessions mind you, but it's easy to pick up and go. With my wallet this game is not worth more than $5.

So I kind of bought this game on a whim, and let me say, I am NOT disappointed! The gameplay is a very solid, tight knit, twin stick shooter with a unique boosting mechanic. The pacing, is fresh and frantic, with different enemy types and an ever changing arena. The morphing arena is brilliant and really switches up the gameplay and your overall strategy. One minute your in an expansive room, the next your rubbing shoulders against the wall. I love it. The sounds and visuals are very crisp, with satisfying sound effects when you fire your weapon. And the music is good too, however I do wish there were more tracks. Overall I love this game, and it is CRIMINALLY UNDERATED! I wish more people knew about this game, because I think it would be a nice addition to the other twin stick shooters. With a multitude of game modes, achievements, and local coop, I will be spending a lot of time on Trigonarium. 9\10

It's a nice simple arcade game. The 2 player mode works fine. They have plenty of different modes although I can't really tell the difference.

Slick and responsive twin-stick shooter with a bright, colorful, and psychedelic visual style and a very intuitive and addictive dashing mechanic. Each dash ends with a powerful burst obliterating any nearby baddies with an extremely satisfying explosion, and is crucial in the most chaotic of moments. The sound design kept my ears perked at all times just as any authentic arcade experience should, with distinct bleeps of power ups being collected and the tinkling of small crystalline enemies spawning from their red-glowing silhouette. Trigonarium is a twin-stick that just bleeds with awesome and nostalgic atmosphere. The gameplay starts off slowly in usual twin-stick fashion with smaller enemies casually lurching around you from each corner, but as time goes on and score conditions are met the frequency and intensity of waves increases into a seriously chaotic clusterfuck of colorfully calculated craziness. Things get tense to the point where you're counting down every second until your next Dash move is charged to plow your way forcefully to that crucial power-up that just spawned across the map. Trigonarium is an incredibly charming and inventive, extremely fun to play twin-stick and is criminally underpriced given the amount of fun I've squeezed out of it. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=825247625

I can't believe that this game has not received any love. This is a Rose Red arena shooter. The arena is constantly morphing. There are more modes than Paul Bunyon could swing a giant redwood at. The controls are slick and smooth. I imagine co-op to be a pretty good rush. I'll write more later... But... if you're any kind of retro style arena twin sticker... you need this.
