First off, right out of the gate, this game's development gets the award for most creative and hilarious name I've yet encountered: "Victorious Secret."
Brilliant.
You know what's not brilliant, though? making the left and right directional buttons do the exact same thing. Seriosuly. The Busted Android is a freerunning game of sorts, kind of like Roger Fastman but without the ability to spew bullets literally everywhere.
Sometimes a gameplay feature will stick out to me so much that I stop caring about the rest. I don't care so much that the art style could be mimicked by anyone with Inkscape and three spare minutes. I don't care so much that when the game doesn't decide to throw you into an enclosed space, the game can actually induce quite a sense of flow.
Really, all I care about is the fact that holding left can cause you to rocket to the right, and holding right can cause you to rocket to the left. The way it "works" is that both the left and right buttons give you a boost in whatever direction you're facing. You switch directions when you hit a wall. It feels very unnatural and is quite difficult to learn.
And that's basically it. This one fails to impress. That's all I got for now. Until next time, stay busted
