An immaculately constructed action game with finely tuned escalation of mechanical density. This is an example of a pure video game. I'd have liked to be able to disable the crosshair, but sadly the developers have shutdown after failing to secure funding for the next game. The only other possible way this could be better is with an arena/level editor.
A very fun and hectic game. every 20 min there is a new mechanic so its good the game is quite short. its also quite hard on a first playthrough but it feels like there could be alot of meat on the bone for subsequent playthroughs. I was let down by the last bosfight because the edge of the arena was not that well defined which let to some frustrating deaths and i would have liked to have had a switch up of tight and big spacesto enjoy the excelent movment in the end. great game. recomend.
The game is undeniable a fast and fun game, but it also has notable aspects that feel kinda crummy. On the one hand the enemy variety is amazing and introduced all throughout the game to keep things fresh. On the other, the areas feel video gamey in the worst way, artificially limited. The game is constantly introducing new gameplay elements to keep things fresh, but some feel more natural than others. The game is fast paced and fun and it feels like you're zooming all over the place, but also feels a little uncontrollable and imprecise. The fact that your main method of movement is also your main method of attack and sometimes you get stuck in a moment where you want to attack and move, but not in the same direction and you just can't do that. It's good, but I feel like the people behind this are really talented and their next game could be amazing. Too bad Dang! closed down.
Um bom joguinho pra passar o tempo
quite short
played through the game and ng+ in like 6 hours but it was very enjoyable

Boomerang X is super fast and super fun but is dragged down by its length.
An incredibly intense, locomotion-based action game that demands the player to battle seas of enemies while employing high-flying acrobatic movement. Despite its short runtime, it remains an “all killer no filler” experience. A tougher new game + mode encouraged me to launch headfirst into a second playthrough immediately.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. One one hand I really like short bit sized games that can be knocked out in a few hours and I really like the idea of a movement based boomerang FPS but I really didn't like the repetitive nature of it never felt satisfied with my move set. Sadly it wasn't really for me but it looks like I'm in the minority with this so take this with a grain of salt I guess.
Boomerang X is an excellent movement shooter with simple, intuitive, fluid combat and an arresting visual style. New Game+ will leave you breathless.
Australian Quake
this game was actually really good loved it
Corto y perfecto, como mi p
A fun, short, challenging game
The movement in this game is phenomenal
why did it have to be this short
Sometimes a game doesn't have to be long to be a killer time. it just has to be SICK AS FUCK.

Haven't beat new game + yet, and to be honest Im working through it quite slowly. But this thing is a really well designed (yet short) unique movement shooter. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who likes this kind of migraine-movement shooter type game.
finished this in one night at 6am, i should've taken acid beforehand... good thing they have new game plus!!!!!!!!!
Fast paced non-stop action. One of the best movility based games I've played. The game is really short but it offers a surprising amount of content and challange. It doesn't have much abilities but the ones the game has, have a lot of synergy between them. The encounters and arenas are carefully designed so that you use the full range of abilities and synergies. The final boss can be quite chaotic but it plays in a very interesting way.
Um jogo sensacional em todos os aspectos. Não joguei muitos games Indie nos últimos anos, mas esse aqui despertou minha atenção desde que o vi. Um excelente jogo, vale a pena demais.
OBS: Tinha interesse em platinar, mas o último trófeu (zerar o jogo TODO sem tomar nenhum HIT) é muito hard.
8/10

Shame the studio behind this game went under, this is one of the most interesting FPS games I've played. Really loved everything except the final boss felt kiiiinda out of place. otherwise incredible time, really loved almost everything about this

Jogo curto (2 ~ 2,3h) de um jogo de tiro em movimento. História muito simples e direta (praticamente nenhuma) com foco em vencer fases e ondas de inimigos e desafios. O jogo começa com controles fluidos, mas acaba com um ciclo de jogabilidade repetitivo. Você vai ficar principalmente atirando e desacelerando o tempo para mirar corretamente nos seus inimigos, o que meio que quebra a ideia de um jogo de tiro rápido e fluido. É divertido, mas fica velho rápido. Espere uma promoção para compensar.
A really fun movement shooter, albeit very short. That being said, it feels like the mechanics are fleshed out while also barely scratching the surface of what could be done with them; there's a very clear curve in complexity from the earlier levels to the later ones but I still wish there was more content to sink my teeth into because the core gameplay is really cool.
Amazing gameplay, good music, and unique ideas. I wish it lasted more than 1 1/2 hours.
Satisfying game with really great gameplay, loved the artstyle as well. Getting the highest score isn't for me but it was still worth the play
one of the shortest and sweetest power trips i've experienced in games
i just want more

Boomerang X is a game with an incredibly fun movement system, satisfying character moveset, and infinite mobility. You can jump as high as you want, fly for any duration of time, and teleport around the map like in no other game.
You fly around, kill the enemies in the area, and move on. Awesome, simple fun. That said, the game suffers from being repetitive, and not really challenging. There is nothing in the game that can keep up with your high speed movement, meaning every enemy in the game is a sitting duck. You run laps around them before they even get the chance to attack, and when they do, they attack the position you were in 2 seconds ago. As long as you move, nothing can harm you, and it makes any obstacle the game throws at you very easy, and not really fun.
When the novelty of the movement wears off, the game doesn't have too much to offer, and despite the game being less than 2 hours long, it overstays its welcome.

Fast, stylish, and short.
I wish it was longer but the endless mode is alright. Worth a play IMO I had a blast playing it
Fun and exciting movement game where boomerang go swish swish. I challenged my self if I can finish the game fast enough to request a refund and yes. I did manage to do so. considering there is a endless wave mode and its only 10$ i would recommend giving it a shot and if ur like me and like to save money u can just speed run it. if so i recommend playing the demo first cause u start the main game where u ended on the demo (it is kinda cheating tho) fun game that u can finish in one day I recommend if u yearn for titanfall 3 Not copium :(
