Testing some things with the Steam interface, so the game is technically downloable for linux, but has no guarantees of working as of yet. We will post a large post sometime later to announce it out officially. Thanks for your patience. ːdoodleː

Every background, enemy, and character looks like it crawled out of a really talented kid's notebook margins, and that alone kept me curious throughout. The shoot em up sections are the real draw, and once you figure out that stacking melee weapons wrecks everything, there's a satisfying loop to upgrading your ship and pushing for gold ranks. That said, the platformer overworld sections feel like they belong to a...

This is a pretty game. The art style is clever, unique and clear to make out. Unfortunately, those are pretty much all the positive things that can be said about it. Ballpoint Universe is half adventure-platformer and half level-based horizontal shooter, both halves have some glaring problems sapping the fun. On the platformer side You walk around a hand-drawn environment, finding new character to help so that you...

This was a good game for me. Pro + Easy shooter. It's possible to get all achievements in this game. Takes work but it's doable. I got them all and did not have to break that much sweat. + Interesting story though it takes awhile to understand. 'Doodles vs Logicians' -war is not something you see in every game. + Good looking art work. + Different. Con - Mouse cursor controller adventure part. Horrible controls. -...

Well, this one really caught me by surprise. When I first saw Ballpoint Universe - Infinite on Steam Greenlight it didn't really caught my attention but the more I saw it on several youtube videos and some gaming website news the more I got fond of the artstyle, slowly I started developing a certain "appreciation" for the fact that everything on the game was hand drawn. Then when I got the game and finally played I...

This game here, for the price its going is more than worth it. Just to be able to walk around and look at the art style is enough for me It's absolutely beautiful. I'd love to see some clones of this art style work its way into other genres, because im really enjoying looking at it. As far as the gameplay itself, i have to admit it does leave a bit to be desired. Theres nothing really wrong with it so far from what...

Ballpoint Universe is truly an astonishing game with a unique artstyle since everything in the game is drawn with a ballpoint pen! The graphics are so detailed and you can really see how much love and passion has gone into making the game. For this to be a game made by only three people, it's amazing. Now that I've gotten that covered let's talk a little bit about the key features and gameplay. The story isn't too...

After playing this game, I feel like drawing something. This game plays like a shmup( Shoot them up) if you're not familiar with games where you're a spaceship to destrory enemy planes or aliens. But what's unique about the game is everything is done in Ballpoint; you're always introduced to new and vibrant art that keeps coming in your face. When I first played this game, I was confused either to say if it was a...

Perhaps if this was solely a horizontal sidescrolling shoot 'em up and not half a 2D platformer with somewhat awkward controls & somewhat difficult to navigate areas this would be an alright game. The parts where it's a shooter work okay for the most part. Controls are all with the mouse by default and allows quick movement from one end of the screen to another. As you kill baddies in said shooter you're supposed to...

A short interesting shoot em up mixed with a bit of platforming here and there. It has a very trippy art style and it looks and feels solid to me. Not super long and priced just right for it. Great little game!
