A big discussion was made in the gb community about the reviews made for any homebrew made.  I think we should "celebrate" anyone making reviews about the games we make. Good or bad doesn't matter as long any criticism is constructive and well explained. And so this devlog is made to pinpoint the two reviews I know of for the game.

1st one is by DMGpage, someone who have a big catalogue of reviews and therefore has a lot of experience on reviewing. This is the review: https://dmgpage.com/2023/11/01/beta-soul-alphaknight/
The game got a 2/5. Pretty low but I do understand where this come from. It is a repetitive game by nature and this isn't everyone's cup of tea. The review goes pretty deep on what is going on and is really detailing most of the mechanics the game has. The only thing I see totally missing is the endboss. A really nice touch is also that the story is fully explained in German, which shows a lot of dedication to understand the game. I feel the conclusion is a bit dry, but with so much information in the review, is still a valuable review.

2nd one is by Mike's Gaming Gala, a Youtube channel, mostly dedicated on reviewing Atari games. Here is the review:

I was super surprised that from this review, Beta Soul got a recommendation. Mike's conclusion says it all. But let me rewind... The review starts with... a dramatisation of the stories depicted in game! MIND BLOWN! Yea, this review was really full of surprises for me. From there the story-mechanics-stages are explored with pretty good detail. What I liked a lot was that Mike do point the weak points of the game, slow start and bad graphics, which are both things I knew somewhat. I was learning when I made this game and I am still learning but this helps me understand that these are indeed things I need to improve in development of any new game I get involved with. Overall a really nice review.

I will try to keep up with any new review that pops up. If anyone know another review for Beta Soul, please let me know.
