Crazy Pixel Streaker

Crazy Pixel Streaker

I am 32 years old.

My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.

Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.

With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.

After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.

Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.

Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.

Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.

Thank you.

online play doesnt work anymore...

Nah

While it has a fun-looking premise, several key factors turn gameplay experiences toward boredom or frustration, including things like:
❌the information provided to players on goal, how to play, and even what team you're on is severely lacking
❌the controls (at least on XBOX and PS4 controllers) don't quite feel as responsive as the genre usually offers
❌the difficulty curve, especially for a game that very much looks like it's trying to be a "jump in and get playin" style party game, is FAR from hitting that goal.

Summary: I got this on sale for about $2, played it with a few different groups at parties for about 30 mins each (as long as we could last). No one enjoyed it, so I asked for a refund.

Quick note: The game does work with full functionality when playing via Steam Link + controller, so that may attract some.

Interesting party game, but there's not much to it, really.

meh.

The phrase "A.S.S" is mentioned in the game. It also sums up the game. Horrible horrible controls make this unplayable.

Not a bad game per se, it's a very cool, funny and unique concept.
But it's complelely unbalanced and unnecessarily hard, and this is coming from someone who finished Streets of Rogue and enjoys Towerfall in co-op mode.

The difficulty could've been mitigated a bit by having a tutorial or introductory levels showing the controls and maybe some tactics.
Another issue, which makes the game feel unfair, is that ranged enemies have a very long range. When playing in co-op, you won't have time to dodge the projectiles most of the time, especially as the camera goes crazy when players are too far from each other.

I wish Steam would let me have a neutral rating, though, as this game isn't for me, but I do recommend you try it out if you feel drawn to it. There's always the refund option.
Thanks!

Fun, chaotic, crazy arcade. Great in multipayer.

Decent game to play with friends, but it's quite the learning curve. Recommended to a friend group who's looking for a challenging game to last for a while before moving on to something new.

does not play well

Crazy!!

It's a really funny game! Who don't dream with going to a football stadium, jump to the grass and kill people with a watermelon launcher?

If u usually play funny games with friends, CPS is a must!

This is the kind of game that Steam needs more of. I've played this game both in single player mode and multiplayer. I can't even get past Guillermo on my own, but it's definitely much more intense and fun when playing multiplayer with friends. Also, I personally prefer playing on a TV with controllers rather than using mouse and keyboard :D

Since it's an early access you can expect a few bugs here and there, but I've got a strong feeling that this game will be much more than it is by the time it's officially released ♥
