Speed Limit ist ein Genre-übergreifendes Arcade-Erlebnis, das niemals lockerlässt. Hier gibt es keine Abkürzungen und kein Entrinnen des Chaos - Speed Limit ist ein oldschool Actionspektakel, das sich auf seine Kernelemente konzentriert: Hart. Schnell. Süchtig machend.

Sobald du glaubst, du weißt, wie das Spiel funktioniert, wechselt es in ein völlig anderes Genre und führt dich dabei durch die goldene Ära der Automatenspiele.

Kämpfe dich durch einen spannenden Side-Scrolling-Shooter, rase in einer explosiven Autoverfolgungsjagd mit Ansicht von oben Richtung Ziel, begib dich fliegend in einem aufregenden Pseudo-3D-Luftkampf und erwarte das Unerwartete. Speed Limit wechselt nahtlos seinen Stil, transformiert sein Gameplay und bietet neue Herausforderungen, sobald du dich ans Spiel gewöhnt hast.

Immensely difficult which I wouldnt mind, if there werent so few checkpoints being in the game. Hence forcing you to not have fun, but to memorise the map so that you can pass the level. Hope to get a refund on this shit

Really short but definitely worth the price (got it on sale for $2.50). Super fun and definitely feels like it'd be a lot of fun to replay, though I only just completed it for the first time. Decently difficult game, but there aren't any random elements i dont think so you can just learn the pattern/attacks for anything thats too hard to do blind. Only one boss at the end but its a pretty fun boss fight and wasn't overly frustrating. Played it on normal mode (only easy and normal available, with normal basically being the hard mode and easy being a more easy/normal mode) using keyboard. Haven't even played the new stuff they added with the most recent update and I'd already recommend the game for sure.

I like the idea, the art direction and the gorgeous variety in visuals and animations that this has. But for me, it doesn't feel like I'm getting better at the game — rather, I'm learning to beat this specific level in every stage. The obstacles come at me so quickly and new mechanics are so abrupt that you can only progress by rote memorization — even while you get a bit better at movement or shooting, mostly you just die and then take a different turn or shoot somewhere in advance.

It's very obvious in the first driving segment: several driving puzzles would be impossible to react to in time if they were actually random (or if there were like 3 such levels): you need to turn, hard, 1.5 to 2 screens ahead of the half-screen obstacle in order to clear it. And not only each segment is different, each segment has different parts, which all have a bit different rules.

I understand that it's kind of part and parcel of old action games (you just beat against them until you learn everything), but this is a modern game that benefits from decades of game design. For example, modern Mario games, or the best 3D puzzle games like Portal, introduce new mechanics in every level, but they successfully teach the user to actually use the skill, not just memorize things.

Moreover, its entire concept is seamless and cinematic transitions from one gameplay loop to another — like 10 old Sega games in one. So it's not that great even by the standards of old-school arcade games. Say, if you played Ranger X, you spent the first level learning the movements and mechanics, dying a lot; but then you had another like 10 levels to use them in increasingly complex ways. Here, it's so brief you just need to memorize things, since they change every 5 seconds.

So my point is, paradoxically, that in this game of constant variety, there's not enough repetition. Meaning, even if each chapter introduces a completely new gameplay mechanic, there's not enough time to both learn and apply the skill in each stage until it completely switches things around, making each obstacle unique (and so beatable mostly by memorization of what you're expected to do).

It's extremely linear in this sense; compared to an actual old arcade game, where you would be required to solve the same problem with same tools, but in hundreds of ways with slight variations. Yes, you could memorize entire levels — but for most, it was a generalized skill, and it felt like it.

Visually and conceptually the game is amazing.

What I disliked...
-Button mashing incentivized
-aim and move with same input, I vastly prefer twin stick
-camera whipping back and forth everytime you turn left or right to shoot behind you
-when the car section begins it does enable twin stick, but it is locked to 45* increments.

Would Highly recommend this game if your into arcade type of games. If you see the trailer you'll notice how it's transitions to different styles of arcade games. The transitions are done quite well. If your looking for a game that just has pure fun with no story then this is the game for you.

Game took me about 2.5 hours to beat.

It took me almost 50 minutes to complete one try in normal mode, the hardest difficulty, although it may be because I played the demo (which you can still try) a few months before. The premise of the game is pretty fun, running away from seems to be the whole government forces in the style of an action movie. The gameplay is actually quite simple and arcadey, but you will die a lot in your first try similar to playing Cuphead or Hotline Miami. I thought the premise of the specific stages that the demo was pretty cool, but I didn't expect the later ones to become even more over the top and include some awesome 3d perspective in a 2d engine. My only complaint is the sharp turns in the motorcycle stages, which makes the bike stray way too much for the 3d perspective in my opinion. For $10 it doesn't seem to offer a lot of replayability with other games I've played at around the same price, and I wished the game was longer despite its ability to frustrate. Hope the devs expand on the game or perhaps make another game that's even better.

edit: Actually one suggestion I might add would be an endless mode for the car and motorcycle stages. Unlike the infinite mode, the vehicle specific stages would just be played over and over again. I don't even care if it just loops the old stages again and again. The Neon mode it gives after you beat the game is similar, but it's just a relaxing drive instead of dodging and weaving busy traffic along with shooting down pursuers.

This is a very fun game! Full disclosure: I got the key from the developer for streaming purposes. That being said, it didn't impact my opinion on the game at all. I had fun and I am still playing it! It's a short adrenaline fueled experience which depending on your skill might still take a few hours to complete on normal for your first playthrough. The demo is harder that the game at release so if that difficulty puts you off, the main game might be better for you. The game is still hard but it's meant to be. You respawn at the checkpoint instantly so dying never feels annoying (like super meat boy). It looks good, it's sounds good and it's fun!

Speed Limit is a solid fast-paced retro-arcade game. The controls feel responsive, it's smooth, it's well put together, and doesn't overstay it's welcome.

It's not a very long game, but if you're interested in running it and going for the achievements you'll get plenty of time for your money. If you're the type to just play a game once then never touch it again, it may not be for you.

Either way, there's a demo, and the demo is representative of the whole game - I think it's at least worth grabbing the demo and seeing if it's for you.

To start this game has it's quirks that you must learn. Some levels will piss you off beyond belief, however this game is addictive. Every death makes you feel a burning sensation to keep going and tell the enemies to eat shit. I see this game having a very solid speed run scene eventually, it's built into the core of the gameplay.

Only had one issue through my whole play through. It is a pain in the ass to control the motorcycle, even barely tapping the stick will send you entirely across the road.

The game has a steep learning curve but that isn't a bad thing. Overall fun experience even if I was cussing 90% of the time.

This is why you shouldn't ride the subway!

Speed Limit is effectively an arcade runner. Stylized in a pixel-art 'retro' game aesthetic. Developed by the small Croatian studio Gamechuck. They also did a game called ”All You Can Eat” which is an adventure game stylized like a comic strip.

Premise: Speed Limit starts off innocently enough as you're just a guy riding on the metro. When all hell breaks loose and our intrepid hero sets off on the adventure of their lifetime. Imagine “Under Siege 2: Dark Territory” starring Steven Seagall and then it transforming into a different game every 10-15 minutes or so.

Stages:

Technically there are 11 stages, but these are essentially broken into 5 genres:

1-2 — These are side-scrolling levels where you'll shoot and jump on a train.
3-4 — These are overhead car driving sequences. You're able to shoot in eight directions. The four cardinal directions and the diagonals in-between. I did not enjoy these stages, I found them very tedious and needlessly punishing on normal. Mostly due to not being able to see what was incoming.
5-6 — This is when you get to ride a motorcycle and drive with a chase cam. These are my favorite stages. Akin to a Road Rash/Road Redemption/Rad Racer section.
7-8 — These stages are analogous to something like Desert Strike (Genesis) on rails or Cobra Triangle (NES) except not in a boat. You'll fly a helicopter from an isometric viewpoint.
9-10 — This is my second favorite sequence. You'll control a plane flying towards the camera in what is essentially a tube. Anecdote: This reminds me a lot of something like a reverse Sonic 2 bonus stage with a Top Gun aesthetic.
Stage 11 — Find out yourself! [spoiler]Think of LIMBO.[/spoiler]

Each stage has relatively frequent checkpoints. Even on Normal, but there is also an Easy mode available.

Again, anecdotally, the first two sequences remind me of 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' on Genesis. Where the stages involved shooting bad dudes in a side scrolling section, then to get to the next stage, you'd have to drive there on an isometric map. 'Speed Limit' plays out differently as the stages are all directly connected, however.

One thing I wish I had picked up on sooner is that you're able to control the throttle on most stages. I died a lot because I didn't know I was even able to do it. Nor that it was needed to dodge some of the obstacles. There are however many audio queues you'll start to pick up on.

Replayability?

Your mileage will certainly vary. The game took me about 2 hours to complete on Normal. This is with all my retries. [spoiler]Upon completion, an Infinite looping mode is unlocked.[/spoiler] You can also go for achievements as many can be obtained — well... by doing something wrong in many cases but there are also ones that require more skill to acquire.

The Gist:

Speed Limit is a game for people that enjoy learning patterns and then subverting them to succeed. Boss battles are similar in that pattern recognition is paramount. I think it's priced fairly for what it is — I find it to be quite polished; no real technical grumbles. Though it's stretched on an 21:9 monitor. That said, I wouldn't tell you to not wait for a sale, should you be 'on-the-fence'.

It's got the same sort of satisfying rapid respawn cycle that something like Hotline Miami presents.

Speed Limit is wicked fun. It would be nice if there were a few more levels but what's there is top notch. Looooove the sweet retro art and the music gets your heart pumping before the action even starts. And then it gets intense. Speed junkies, get your fill.

Short but intense genre-hopper that will have you running, shooting, trainsurfing, driving, riding and flying as you strive to survive and then dominate. Guaranteed to get your adrenaline pumping!

The game reminded me of various games I played as a child. Speed Limit offers various types of actions, so everyone will find at least a few for themselves to enjoy. For me, the game gets better after the first two levels. I'm not a fan of pixel art, but it's made great. It would be wonderful if I had such perfect music in games as a kid. Speed is not my virtue but I managed to win on easy :) Buy it! Buy it!

Great idea! Love the ever increasing tempo, and the constantly changing challenge. This is like a 101 of the best arcade games. A real treat, and a blast to the past. Reminds me of so many great games and all the times I've spend at the arcades. :-)

I've never been to the arcade, but as a kid I played a lot of flash and retro games. This game scratches that nostalgia itch. Its fast paced, brutal and unforgiving, but it's really fun. Game starts while you are sitting on a train and all of a sudden you're running away from SWAT with a gun. After just 2 levels you jump into a car and after that you change a few more vehicles, it is constantly changing. Train and motorcycle levels reminded me of John Wick and for me they were the most enjoyable. It can be played as a party game if you compete with your friends and try to be the fastest or the most efficient one. The only downside of this game is that it is short. I played demo, and it had less checkpoints so I needed more time to finish the demo, but with more checkpoints in the full game it's a little bit shorter. All in all, if you miss arcade machines and have a few free hours, this game is just for you.
