My full review can be found on The Backlog.[www.the-backlog.net]

Withering Kingdom is a wave-based shooter style game in which you need to take down waves of weird looking aliens. This game came out as part of Digital Homicide's May 27th "Release 5 games at once" spree, and from what I've read, it's an exact clone of Wyatt Derp (WK is the only one I decided to purchase to try and play). Withering Kingdom features absolutely no main menu screen, immediately dumping you into the game with no explanation as to what the controls are. Expect to be clicking your left mouse key a lot to do your shooting and praying that the hits actually hit.

The game is a mess. The upgrades (from what I could tell) didn't actually seem to do anything. The enemy models glitch out a lot, and according to another review the alien part of them can even fly off to reveal a cowboy underneath (gee). There is MINOR controller support, but by minor I mean you can move and open up the upgrade menu.

Avoid this game. It's a mess, the character models bug out, and the hitboxes seem to be all over the place.
