  Retimed is a fun concept that has some great slow-motion combat going on. However, the game clearly is meant to be played by more than two players, where four is the golden number. The graphics are rather cool, but the music has little to offer and the lacking story makes for a poor singleplayer experience. This means that the game really is most fun if you have a committed group of friends you regularly play (other games) with, or if you find yourself in a place where there is no lack of people such as a student dorm.

  Retimed is still a wonderful game. It’s unique when it comes to the slow-motion shooting mechanics and the levels are well designed. While the battles are short, my cousin and I played for quite a few hours and went back to it for a few days. We shared a lot of laughs and even made up some new rules for gameplay, such as trying to defeat each other with only six bullets and no reloading.

  This isn’t a huge issue for people who plan to use it at parties, but I think that there should be at least one option for people who are playing alone. Maybe this will come in future updates; who knows? My family and I had a great time trying this out. My dad, who usually takes a bit to pick up on controls, even had fun playing. For anyone looking for a simple party game to add to their library, this is a great choice.

  The main issues is the lack of characters, stages, or variety of weapons to choose from, plus the lacklustre single-player experience. However, considering the small development team that worked on this, what Retimed has become is an enjoyable blast to play, and at the very least, it most certainly should be checked out in time for the next couch party.

  It was a great outing for the developer, and I will be enjoying it while keeping an eye on what Team Maniax puts out in the future. In its current state, the core gameplay is fantastic, accessible, and competitive. I recommend Retimed to anyone looking to add something new to their couch multiplayer lineup, so long as they are okay with a content-light experience.
