A short but sweet fast faced, arena FPS. Each arena feels very unique and presents its own challenges. The art style, while simple was pretty cool, though they don't distract you nor make it difficult to see what's going on in the thick of it. The game controls well and your actions feel snappy. It definitely has that "easy to learn, hard to master" feel to it, that once you get the hang of it, you feel pretty dang cool. This also goes to make the new game plus feel like it is a pretty good add if you do wish to sink your teeth into it. I honestly think that it is good that the game is relatively short as the very high intensity arenas wear you down pretty quick and while new abilities are introduced throughout, the game would get samey if they decided to drag it out.

One of the sickest shooters I've ever played. Boomerang X looked at games like DOOM Eternal and Ultrakill where you can't stand still and said 'ok but what if you could **** FLY' and it works perfectly. It's an incredibly short game but it's hard to complain when the entire thing is perfectly paced without a single moment of frustration or boredom.A flawless version of what it's trying to be, Boomerang X's only sin is that it ends.R.I.P. DANG

The main campaign of this game takes a little over an hour. However, the gameplay is so smooth and so addicting that I've replayed the campaign several times (and new game+) in order to get all the achievements and stuff. This game also has five endless modes, offering even more reasons to keep playing. I personally bought this game when it was on sale for $12, but if you love games like fast-paced action games like Hotline Miami, this game is well worth the price. 9.25/10

Just plain ole fun. Mechanics are solid and movement is fantastic, my only real issue with it is that it can be really difficult to tell where damage is coming from to avoid it and this makes the length of some of the arenas pretty hellish. Length is perfect, game knows exactly how much it can get out of the mechanics and ends when it should, wish more games would do that rather than dragging things out for the sake of runtime. Took me about 2.5 hours start to finish.

When we say a game is "too short" it sometimes means that we liked the game and would simply like more of it, please and thank you. In the case of Boomerang X, the game genuinely is too short. I like it, but it's as unsatisfying as hearing someone stop speaking mid-sente

Boomerang X It all comes back around Boomerang X is a first person arena shooter where you start out with a simple boomerang, youll go into a room, slice through enemies, and as you progress youll gain new abilities and be introduced to new enemies, enemies that youll evtnually have to aim for a giant red button on to kill them.. my first hour of this game I was having an absolute blast, it past paced, satisfying to hit enemies, dodge their attacks, and then slowly, as more enmies are introduced, the less fun this game got for me… Boomarang X is a hard game, but for all o the wrong reasons, its not that didging enmies is hard, its that the game insists on annoying you with each new enemy, one having you only able to kill it from behind, a floating eyes that you have to hit to make it still, and then find a way to hit it from behind before it wakes up, all while dealing with hectic out of control feeling mechanics, zipping through the air, just hoping your boomerang hits the spot… youll have to eal with bug that shield enemies, its just more and more annoying the more you play… the deeper you get into the game.. and theres seemingly no reward for it all, no cool story, no cool environments, the game is simply an arena shooter, where you have one weapon, dozens of annoying enemies, and feel like youre in almost no control while trying to deal with them… youll be annoyingly trying to climb through the air, land on a platform, and stay there without flying off… There are tons of accessibility options here though, the game even allows you to play with invincibility, or shoot nothing but special shoters, but still, whats the point, what am I dragging myself through this game for? I do see some potential for this game in the speed run community, there is even a speedrun clock and players already speedrunning the demo, it’s a shame however this just seems to be a speedrn game with not much else to offer for everyone else.. I give Boomerang X a 5.5/10
