Starbound is a game by a few of the developers of Terraria. In this game, you can travel from planet to planet, exploring an infinately generated universe, with infinate planets. People always compare this game to Terraria because these games are both 2-D survival platformers, but in reality, these games are nothing alike. There is much more exploring to do and many more things to accomplish. There are tons of randomly generated dungeons, astroid feilds, prisons, and civilizations. I mean, come on, this game completely satisfies your need for 2-D adventure! I would definately give this game a 9/10 for the fact that this game is very creative and intense game with an amzing sense of adventure and fullfillment.

I love playing DayZ, this game is absolutely amazing. The level of realism, even in such a new game, is incredable (I am of referring to the standalone, of course). Now, all this being said, the game is very experimental and glitchy, as it is on early access for those willing to pay for the game early. I personally think it is 100% worth the money. Also, graphics-wise, the standalone has hugely improved sense the mod. It is run off the Arma 3 engine, which is definately part of it, but dang, this game really makes you appreciate the beauty of the apocalypse. Overall, I would rate this game an 8/10, because of the various glitches in the game.
