  • graphics
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many users criticizing them as outdated and glitchy, likening them to those of a decade-old title. While some players appreciate the art design and smooth performance on lower-end hardware, the overall consensus is that significant improvements are needed to address animation bugs and enhance visual fidelity. Despite these issues, a few users find the graphics acceptable given the game's early-access status and low price point.

    • “Graphics are great, pacing is nice and it runs like a charm.”
    • “Mech action on smooth UE4 graphics on a post-apocalyptic Manchester!”
    • “I am running it on my 2013 gaming laptop with an i7 processor, 6 GB RAM, and GT 630M graphics card, really below minimum specs, and it runs at a good 30 FPS (I'm not a purist, you see, I'm fine with 30 FPS) at 1600 x 900 resolution with medium settings.”
    • “The game is embarrassingly badly made, with graphics you would expect of a 10-year-old game, clunky controls, motion glitches, random crashes... this is not an episode, it is a beta at best, and it requires a major overhaul (especially expanding on the story) before it can be considered a game.”
    • “Even on the highest settings, the graphics are bad, and the game literally has no shadows in this day and age.”
    • “Glitchy graphics, animation bugs, and a combat system that feels a little too floaty are the problems inherent in this game.”
  • gameplay
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally enjoyable but described as somewhat clunky, indicating a need for further polish. It features large maps, multiple objectives, and fast-paced shooting, complemented by puzzle mechanics and a simplistic hacking system reminiscent of "Watch Dogs." Overall, while the foundation is solid, improvements are necessary for a more refined experience.

    • “Big maps, multiple objective games, interchangeable weapons, and fast shooting gameplay... oh yes :)”
    • “As far as gameplay goes, it's playable if a bit clunky. I feel it should be polished up first; otherwise, it's a great start to what could be an incredible game.”
    • “A hacking mechanic is in the game, which all you have to do is hold a key down to perform the hack.”
    • “All of which is interspersed by some puzzle mechanics that need to be overcome to continue on your journey.”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is plagued by significant stability issues, including numerous bugs, graphical glitches, and clunky controls, leading many to view it as an unfinished product rather than a polished release. Players express frustration over the lack of developer support and call for a major overhaul to address these problems before it can be considered a complete game. Despite these issues, some aspects like weapon design and sound are praised, indicating potential for improvement.

    • “Very buggy with nothing from the devs in a long time.”
    • “The game is embarrassingly badly made, with graphics you would expect of a 10-year-old game, clunky controls, motion glitches, random crashes to desktop... this is not an episode, it is a beta at best, and it requires a major overhaul (especially expanding on the story) before it can be considered a game.”
    • “Very buggy with nothing from the devs in a long time.”
  • story
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story and world-building are noted as interesting and show potential, but many reviewers feel that the narrative requires significant expansion and refinement. While the overall execution is criticized as lacking polish, some players appreciate the effort put into the story, suggesting it could be worth exploring in its current early-access state.

    • “The on-sale price of $6, the interesting story and world-building, and the clear amount of effort and heart that have gone into this early-access piece make it worth the price of admission to help work as a beta-tester on this.”
    • “The game is embarrassingly poorly made, with graphics you would expect from a 10-year-old game, clunky controls, motion glitches, and random crashes. This is not an episode; it is a beta at best, and it requires a major overhaul (especially expanding on the story) before it can be considered a game.”
  • optimization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game currently suffers from significant optimization issues, making it unplayable at times, but there is optimism among users that the developers can address these problems effectively.

    • “I want to play this game fully optimized for my rig!”
    • “The game really needs a lot of work in optimization because sometimes it's pretty unplayable, but I don't think that's an impossible task for these particular developers.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is described as both entertaining and insightful, making it a compelling experience for skeptics.

    • “Humorous and full of truth - a must-read for doubters.”

    • “I love how the humor is woven into the gameplay, making every moment enjoyable.”
