Well I just played the demo and thought it was pretty interesting and challenging. I’m not an expert on RTS games but I liked what they did with a minimum of resource demand and I’m sure a small budget.

I quite enjoyed the “retro” feel and style of the art directions and gameplay.

For $10 bucks it’s a lot of enjoyment and being different from the “norm” is a plus in my book…well worth the money if you ask me.

I think I’ll be picking up the unlock code as I’m interested in seeing the rest of the game ;)

Regards,

Stu

I don’t like this game, but I want everybody that like that game to jump here and make a defense of it. Why was not a bad game for some people? maybe the game is misunderstod?

Wow, “None of it matters. The game’s no good.” made even I feel a huge pang of guilt, and I have nothing to do with the game or the review! Having said that, I think it says something good about you as a professional to be able to give that game a score so low Kieron, even if I thought it deserved a 6/10 (personally I’d have given it 8/10, but I’m biased towards that sort of thing).

I feel that my title prefix-project:project-suffix is still on schedual to be released in 2020. And will feature a modern setting, it being 2020 a modern setting will probably involve space orks and gauss rifles.

I saw Kieron around Bath one time. He kicked a puppy and then laughed.

Archon / Battle Chess is/was/were/are awesome! I never even played to win, I just played so I could see all of the animations of pieces killing other pieces.

Oh yeah, and can I just say that the ‘colours’ system is puerile and adds nothing to the game. SpaceForce: Boring Universe used the same system for ship battles which struck me then as NOT MAKING ONE JOT OF SENSE.

He’s firm but fair, is our Keiron; you don’t get a kicking from his Review Hobnails unless you deserve one. I agree with him on many of the points raised (albeit from my experiences with the demo). Slow, fiddly controls. Tedious cut-scenes. Boring battles – I’ve seen chess pieces look more dynamic fighting each other (I think you’ll find that’s called Archon – Ed). I did rather wonder what all the hype was about.

I just love how he totally shoots it down with “None of it matters. The game’s no good.”. Refreshingly evil, keep up the good, err, BAD work !

I don’t like this game. I was feeling like I was the only guy on the world that don’t like this game.

Heres why I don’t like the game:
– I don’t buy the “shield” system where you have to change “lazers colors” to fit some randomnian absortion thingie. It feels too random to me. Almost like something artificial and “Mars Attack!!”-ish.
– The 3D world feel somewhat old. Canyons to limite where our units can go and add strategy to a game is what the first 3D games tried, but after that 3D was used for more. (note: I only played the first levels ).
