Jydge is another entry in 10tons line of competent twin-stick shooters. This bizarre style is carried out throughout the game and I never know whether to smile or wince when I see words like "Lead Byllets", "Sentence Execyted", and "Department of Jystice." Even robotic mercenaries have a tough time surviving explosions Eagle-eyed readers might have noticed that Jydge is spelled with a "y" instead of a "u". Finally, I'd be remiss to leave out Jydge's fascinating and revolting spelling scheme. They're pretty on-par with 10tons other recent twin-stick shooters and are sufficient enough but I do wish that enemies and hostages stood out more. I wouldn't go so far to call it ugly but the graphics are far from inspired and mostly just come off as blocky and dull. However, I will give credit that it allows you to swap loadouts without exiting the level if you die. You have to choose a mission, figure out which objective you're going for, back out and set up your loadout accordingly, then reselect the mission. This builds a decent amount of strategy although I wish the loadout setup was a bit more intuitive. Other objectives require you not to be spotted so you'll want to swap to the powerful sniper bullets and camouflage cyberware so you can remain hidden in the shadows and take out enemies with a single shot. Some objectives want you to complete a level quickly so you'll equip speed and heavy armor enhancements that allow you to move fast and absorb bullets. You'll find yourself developing preferred loadouts for different objective types. These upgrades make going back to complete previous level objectives a bit easier.
#JYDGE PC GAMEPLAY UPGRADE#
You can upgrade Jydge's gun (appropriately called the Gavel Mk 1) with a dozen primary and secondary fire modes (each having their own upgradable paths) and by attaching weapon mods that make Jydge even more deadly. You can upgrade your armor with four pieces of cyberware which provide health, speed, and other boosts. Fortunately, Jydge features a robust upgrade system. I usually don't have a problem with progress being blocked until you complete previous side tasks but I do feel that Jydge's progress roadblocks are too steep for their own good. However, it does get a bit old to replay the same levels over and over.
Levels are short and most objectives are challenging but fair. Everyone seems really upset that I interrupted their game of pool At one point, I had to earn a whopping 55/60 medals in order to unlock the next act. This is because future levels are locked away behind how many medals you earn and the unlock prices are rather steep. You'll actually need to go back to almost every level and complete it 2 to 3 times, clearing the vast majority of objectives. These difficulty increases aren't really optional, though. The same happens further down the line with Grim and Nightmare difficulties. After completing the first act on normal, you will unlock Hardcore difficulty for each level which contains a new set of 3 objectives and medals to collect. To make up for the dearth of levels, Jydge has four unlockable difficulties. All three objectives award medals which unlock future levels and upgrades. The first one is mandatory for progressing through the level and the other two are optional. There are only 18 different levels in Jydge and each one features 3 objectives for you to complete. There are a variety of enemy types including powerful shotgun wielders and super-fast melee attackers to go along with the more traditional baddies armed with guns. As with all the other 10tons twin-stick shooters I've played, the controls work well and provide satisfying, if simplistic, action. You play as a type of robotic cop (hmmm.) who is tasked with ensuring society's safety and used to assassinate violent targets and defuse hostage situations.
Like several of 10tons other games, Jydge is a top-down twin-stick shooter set in a futuristic society.
Mr Pink and Mr Black conducting a bank heist. Hot off the heels of their time-travelling shooter Time Recoil, 10tons is ready to lay down some punishment with Jydge.
