The Daily Deal on Steam today is a 2d platformer called Capsized is 67% down from £5.99 to £1.99.

Your Spacecraft has crash landed on an alien planet and you’ve got to navigate your way through each level fighting a variety off monsters, save your crewmates and make your way off the planet to safety.

First Impressions:

Well I’ve only discovered this this afternoon so I’ve only played the first few level but so far it’s a smooth platformer controlled by mouse and keyboard. At first I found the default controls a little tricky but on the other hand I’m a bit old and slow by now, trust me you get used to it.

The Environment is gorgeous and filled with strange critters and lovely landscapes, and the weaponry so far has been quite cool. Guns and ammo aplenty and many weapons have an alternate fire, a gravity hook to pull around or throw loose objects etc and a jet pack!

There are also unlockable modes aswell: Local Deathmatch and Co-op, Survival Mode, Time Trials and Armless Fighting.

System Requirements ( according to steam ):

  • OS: XP/Vista/Windows 7
  • Processor: Dual-core processor (Intel Dual Core 2.0 GHz or AMD Athlon X2 5200+ 2.6 GHz)
  • Memory: 1.5 GB RAM
  • Hard Disk Space: 1.0 GB free space

  • Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound cards

 

Verdict:

Platform action with puzzle solving and lots of shooting stuff. You can’t go wrong for £1.99 surely?
