Changes: • Hearts on the hud now have shadows like everything else on it. • Changed the gamepad button sprites on the hud slightly. • Added an error message/sound if the second player tries to join without the doppelganger item. Bug fixes: • Opening the inventory no longer cuts off error and warning sounds.

This is one of those games that's super cheap to start with (99 cents) and was seemingly always on sale for 90% off back when a game's final price after discounts could actually go below 49 cents, largely because this game also was among the first to really try and cash in on the gold rush of Steam Trading Cards when that part of the storefront really picked up, pardon the pun, steam (the achievement unlock % is a...

It's a pretty cool game, got lost for a bit but it's okay I think.. Also the last dungeon is pretty brutal even if you already collected most of the upgrades for your shotgun and items. Really fun!

The Legend of Shotgunda Spiritual successor to Broken Armor, a lost soul can enjoy more dungeons, more land to explore, more weapons, more music and more hardcore difficulty. Well, a great sequel, way lnoger and adventuresquer than the dev's first game. Special mention to the banjo. The Gamortician says Yes.

The controls can be very frustrating to deal with and the old-school Zelda vibes carry the experience. Overall, the game loses its charm after the first couple dungeons and just feels kinda bland. 100% achievement completion boils down to collecting every monster card (that drop from monsters at a chance) and finding every item upgrade (which are hidden in the world). It's possible to obtain everything during your...

Zelda but with a redneck this game is peek there’s only one complaint I haven’t and that’s those invisible guys they suck but other than that you get 4 hours of fun for 99 cents and that’s worth

Shotgun Legend is a tribute to the Legend of Zelda, but instead of Link, you are Eugene, a shotgun wielding hillbilly. In this retro 2D RPG, you explore an unfamiliar world that is plagued with evil aliens who are trying to resurrect their leader. As a result, the lands are swarming with the undead and other challenges you must face to get back home. Overall, Shotgun Legend is a great example of a retro RPG done...

If you have a hankering to play an alternate version of the classic NES Legend of Zelda, you should check out Shotgun Legend. Because this game stays true to it's inspiration - almost to a fault - I personally won't be logging tons of hours, but I do appreciate that this well-made labor of love exists. Pros: +A alternate version of the original Legend of Zelda with all expected mechanics, for good or for...

I picked up Shotgun Legend for a mere €0.40 after obtaining a coupon for it. I didn't have high expectations of it but the reviews were positive so I had a go at it. Apparently, this is supposed to be Zelda with a shotgun. I have no idea what that means because I've never played a Zelda game before. I can only assume that there aren't any shotguns in Zelda. The gameplay is pretty straightforward. You use the arrow...

An excellent old-school action-adventure in the vein of the original Zelda. You have your primary weapon - the titular shotgun, and find a number of secondary weapons and passive equipment along the way. While the shotgun's range isn't too bad, it has a pretty large spread so you want to be relatively close to your target for maximum damage. 1-2 close up shotgun blasts will take care of most normal monsters, or...
