I promised a friend that Id play velocity 2x (and that Id at least attempt to speedrun it) a few months ago, and im finally getting round to it. Its a fun, challenging Fast paced half top down shoot em up Half 2d action platformer. I dont remember any game in recent years requiring as much APM as this game demands if u want to be good.

Theres times in these videos where my brain forgets all the controls. Because your doing like 4 things at once. And the controls are different between the 2d and top down sections, and future levels have u switching between the two 3 or 4 times per level. And then theres the boost mechanic. U want to go fast, but going fast means youll miss alot. A game that lets u dictate ur speed, rewards u for going fast, but makes objectives harder to complete for doing so. Im gonna tear my hair out with this one, while loving every second of it.
