The funniest game I ever played. Last time I laughed so much while playing a game was during the Borderlands Telltale game. But this one is even funnier.

The voice acting is sensational, the dialogues are crazy funny.

Gameplay is similar to Doom Eternal (not as intense and smooth of course but the similarities are there).

Not the longest game and there is no new game plus but I enjoyed every second while it lasted. Around 10 hours to complete.

There are multiple weapons in the game, all with different and unique abilities and personalities. Yes personality because they all talk to you and to each other throughout the whole game. Super funny.

The game offers you to turn off the weapon dialogues if you want because they do talk a lot but please do yourself a favour and keep it on. Best thing in the game.

Boss fights are great and all unique. Lot of different areas so you won't feel bored for a second.

We need more games like this. So funny, not scared to say things that other games wouldn't dare, enjoyable combat, nice art design, and a phenomenal experience that everyone should try. It's in game pass so you don't even have to buy it. One of my favourite games of the year.

This is an absolutely enjoyable game, especially if you are a Rick & Morty or Solar Opposites fan, or resonate with satirical story, violence and drug usage. The graphics are beautiful, and the dialogue is very in line with Justin Roiland's other works and game (Trover Saves the Universe). The gameplay is fun and the story is replete with comedic violence, throwbacks and commentary and metacommentary. I haven't found anything about the game that I don't enjoy or appreciate, as the game just came out I haven't finished it yet but so far it is most excellent.

Parents beware, this game, as the title should suggest, is not appropriate for children.

9/10.

This game was absolutely enthralling and definitely one of the best games I have played in a while. Its hilarious and there's always something to discover or experience. I still believe that I probably haven't found half of the funny Easter eggs/secrets in this game. Despite that the game is relatively small its so massive in its own way. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect score was that it was a little buggy, but overall it didn't effect my enjoyment of the experience; overall the fantastic nature of the game takes you away from the few minor issues. This game deserves all the love its receiving and more, so go check it out if you're on the fence.

Ignore the Critics!

This game is awesome! First off it is made by one of the creator's of Rick and Morty and it shows. The main voice actor in the game is the voice actor for Morty himself and he is so funny! If you like RIck and Morty humor this game is for you, and man it was for me!

Here are some positives:

• Short campaign with a lot to do. I am a fan of the 10-12 hour campaign, I do not need every game to be a 100 hours of fetch quests. This is a shorter and more refined experience that focuses on art style, funny writing, and good FPS gameplay and platforming.

• Combat and movement feel good and are very different. As you get new abilities, suit upgrades, and weapons you can move and kill in new ways. It is very fun in that regard.

• The story is actually really fun and compelling. You are a bounty hunter seeking to take down a cartel from the bottom up.

• The cast of characters are great. All the Guns have super funny personalities and even a touching and tragic backstory that you will learn about throughout the story.

• The game is FUNNY. If you like Rick and Morty, play this game. If you like this game watch Rick and Morty.

• The graphics and art direction pops off the screen.

• The main villain is absolutely the worst in the best way, and by the lost boss battle you will be so ready to end its life.

• The boss battles are a fun combination of puzzle combat and shooting.

• The worlds are beautiful and colorful.

• The worldbuilding is also really great and clever. There is definitely room for a sequel, I like the lore and factions in the world a lot.

• Variety in locations and enemy types.

• The achievement hunt it so good! You can, with a guide get 100% completion in one playthrough.

• The length is perfect. I want to say my playthrough was around 12 hours with near total achievement completion. I love shorter focused campaigns because I can replay them and it ups the quality. This is one of those classic 12-15 hour shooter campaigns from back in the 360 days.

You should play this game, I have no clue why it got bombed so hard it doesn't deserve it at all. Play it on game pass now!

People (should) immediately know what they're walking into with the dialogue and writing of this game. That being said, High on Life was a surprisingly competent single player FPS in 2022. It's even ACTUALLY funny in a few moments (I personally don't find Justin Roiland's type humor that amusing, but there is whit in a few exchanges that happen.)

The game plays like a modest DooM clone, waves of enemies, plenty of dodging, shooting, using movement abilities. High On Life has significantly fewer guns but each gun has a character personality that fits in with the mood of the gun being used. The enemies and locations aren't anything particular to write home about, but they also don't overstay their welcome unless players decide to go for 100%.

I will admit I didn't feel the desire to 100% the game because even though world traversal is swift and easy, total post-game completion is a tedious slog. Being said, if they do decide to release DLC or another game, I'd probably be willing to pick Bounty Hunting back up for another go.

First off, if you are not a fan of Rick and Morty or Solar Opposites, stay away from this game. The humor is exactly what you'd expect from Roiland.

The premise: I'm sure most of you have looked into this already, but the game is about an Alien race finding Earth and discovering that humans give them an incredible high. You team up with a talking gun named Kenny (voiced by Roiland) to travel to a different planet and explore, fight bosses, find new weapons with different personalities, and visit new places with the help of a washed-up bounty hunter and his gadgets. So let's get into this.

Pros: Humor, Graphics, Dialogue, Exploration, and Boss Sequences.

Roland's humor is littered throughout this game and it never quits. It's very entertaining and scratches just about every humor type there is. The graphics are pretty good given it isn't some triple A title, and I didn't experience *too* many glitches, aside from some dead body shivering and finding some places that I couldn't come back from that forced me to restart checkpoints. The dialogue is entertaining and fruitful, it rewards exploration (although not initially), and the boss fights were fairly well-thought-out and offered some challenge in an otherwise easy game.

Cons: Humor, Longevity, and Mechanics/Button Layout, Music

Yes, the humor is both a pro and a con. I find the humor in this game entertaining up until the moment I don't, and then I can't do it anymore. It's important to note that you can turn off the frequency of dialogue in the settings, but it's crazy that it's even an option. It's as if THEY knew it was too much and just put a filter setting in the game instead of loosening up on all the repetitive word vomit from the get-go. They even have a character in the game whose sole purpose is to annoy you; while I can respect how much they lean into their self-awareness, I would have appreciated more substance to counter the incessant stimulation. I had to take frequent breaks from this game as I usually couldn't play it for more than 45 minutes at a time, not due to the stimulation per se, but predominately due to its glaring contrivance.

It's a shorter game, but I question its ability to maintain relevancy outside the 8 hours you dedicate to it. I would not buy this game for full price personally, but if you find it on Game Pass then there's really no downside to downloading it.

The game mechanics are slow in my opinion, and the button layout is odd. I would find myself rarely using stronger attacks because it didn't feel particularly satisfying or all that necessary. The fighting is fine, but lackluster.. and the music is fun at first but gets old a few hours in. Avid gamers will definitely notice the wonkiness, but a casual gamer would barely notice.

Overall I think people should try it out for themselves, but if you have other games you're dying to play first then I'd leave it on the backburner.

I really enjoy this Game. The sharp writing was a major stand out for me with this restricted platform jumper.

Beautiful open world was also a major plus.

The hypnotic music selection was also a major ingredient.

CON: The only downsides to this brillant project were some length puzzles and a few annoying progression halting puzzles

Quick play for streamers ( As I am a twitch streamer!) F

I'd really like to see DLC and other quality of life contributed to this game. And the ability for your character to speak

Bravo; to all of the developers Follow me on twitch: kingprodigygames.

Thanks..

If you were looking for a funny, action packed shooter with very witty humour, a good story and a creative yet basic combat system that turns very quickly into a repetitive, boring experience - with combat sections repeating themselves, very little variety in enemies, jokes and humour that get very old, very quickly and a story that slowly turns into an inspired Rick and Morty episode, then High on Life will be for you.

High on life puts you in the shoes of a teenager being babysat by his sister while your parents are away on vacation. She's busy planning a wild party while you're quietly playing your favourite video game where your divorce lawyer, who reminds you multiple times throughout the game that he IS YOUR BEST divorce lawyer, guides you through an alien spaceship as you combat your exe's alien boyfriends. Things turn south as, back in the real world, earth is invaded by an alien drug cartel called the G3, who are abducting humans to use as drugs, they end up betraying one of their members and leave the planet whilst their minions start abducting. This is where you are introduced to Kenny, a stammering, humorous pistol voiced by Justin Roiland. Together, along with your sister, you find a former alien bounty hunter, borrow his gear and hunt down each members of the G3 cartel, gaining new weapons along the way.

The story itself starts off well but quickly devolves into the same basic pattern; Select a Bounty, head to the planet, listen to Justin Roiland, another gun or your bounty suit talk for about five minutes about a particular level or person whilst going through the same humorous style you see in Rick and Morty with no real end in sight with stammers included, find an NPC who, again, talks for five minutes about nothing with stammers thrown into the mix, solve a puzzle, find the boss, listen to the boss stammer for another five minutes about why they're badass, kill them, take their gun, listen to Justin Roiland, you guessed it, stammer and talk about how cool you were with random comparisons for another five minutes and repeat. Don't get me wrong, it was funny at first with a few good laughs here and there but it very quickly got old and almost felt like it was massive filler for the game. I understand this is Justin Roilands humour but it almost felt like it was the only joke in the game. To prevent over talking though, the game does have an option to prevent the guns from overtalking in combat but doesn't really do much for the rest of the game.

The gameplay itself though is very smooth with shooting and manoeuvres feeling slick, arenas feeling generous with their enemy numbers and a nice variety of weapons to choose from which helps create a nice balance and also provides some creativity for enemy takedowns. Though it does feel like sometimes the game repeats itself with areas where you're just battling the same enemies over and over again on different planets but does feel minor in comparison to the combat. However, it would feel nice to have a little bit more variety in terms of enemies as it did get to a point where you didn't really have to guess what enemy you were fighting next.

Customisation felt very limited and the character selection at the beginning of the level felt unnecessary as you were then only limited to upgrades and cosmetics for your armour.

The art style is what you would expect a game by Justin Roiland to look like; colourful, cartoonish and fun with some sections of the game being aesthetically pleasing.

Overall, the game is enjoyable for those who are fans of Justin Roiland's work but can admit that it can be very repetitive and tiring to listen to the same style of joke repeated and unfortunately doesn't do the gameplay any justice but it's still worth a try for the combat and the art style.
