- Instead of a gory horror-themed game for Halloween this year, I decided to go in a different direction with this cute indie shoot'em up - Hazelnut Hex!
The pastel colors and theme aren't for everyone, but I found it really charming and enjoyable. I did have to switch the background palette option to it's darkest setting. I really appreciate the developer Chunderfins is looking out for us olds! 😁
Due it being pretty easy to clear on default "Normal" difficulty, I'd say this is a good game to recommend to those getting into the genre. Once players understand charge shots cancel most enemy bullets, a lot of the patterns in the game are pretty manageable. There is a scoring mechanic called "Boss Dodge Bonus", which gives you a score bonus for not using your charge shot during each of the boss fights. I didn't attempt to do it on this run, I was just looking for the ALL Clear.
I thought it was a really fun bonus that during the credits you can control your squirrel partner Sam and try to shoot the the developers names as they scroll by.
Hazelnut Hex is available on Switch on Steam, which is what this gameplay was recorded on:

I haven't checked out the hard "Moderate" difficulty yet, though...maybe next Halloween. Happy spooky season, everyone!
