Machinefall

Played the demo for hours and decided to get the full game. Love it so far. Amazing that it is done by a single person. Lots of potential for content updates and insane replayability.

Its good, still needs to develop but has the potential.

Please note I checked out with less than an hour playtime due to my subjective expectations and refunded, I didn't even complete the tutorial. Really cool concept, needs more time in the oven. With the wealth of Horde survival games released over the last 10 years, there is a level of polish and onboarding you expect from this Genre. Other titles such as "They are Billons" had far better player onboarding in early access than this game does at full release. At some point I closed the tutorial and relaunched later on. I noticed heavy frame drops that didn't stabilize and made the rest of the tutorial unbearable to play, relaunching again didn't resolve the issue, if anything it seemed worse. This was enough for me to throw in the towel and refund. I'll come back at a later date assuming this gets further love and attention from the Dev.

Хорошая игра на удивление, думал отпугнет тем, что игра происходит на всей Земле и будет слишком много всего, но на самом деле она не перегружена интерфейсом, не надо куда-то торопиться и постоянно следить за всеми своими поселениями, только иногда посматривать, всё просто и понятно. Игра вышла совсем недавно, конечно есть баги и некое чувство, будто чего-то не хватает, а добавить в игру явно есть что, но думаю разработчик скоро исправит это. Геймплей увлекает, хотя игра по ощущениям на данный момент на одно прохождение.

Do you know Eras Zombie Invasion? The fun map from Warcraft 3? - It's basically this plus some "They Are Billions" but in single-player. Start anywhere on the world with some soldiers and start expanding and building. It centers around a medium complex economy and unit production at its end goal. The attack waves grow, bosses spawn and your tech tree is more of a quest log, an innovative design. The automation system running in the back functions somewhat well but sometimes intransparent, so you might not understand some ruleset but the system will function even without your input so you can focus on expansion and combat. There are some kinks left and it sometimes feels janky. But maybe some of the profits made with sales can go back into refining and improving the system. A highlight would be if we could get a multiplayer like Eras had. Overall if you want to experience something innovative and never seen on this scale I recommend it.

Good so far. You got the whole world to conquer. You gotta do quests to get through your tech tree which is really helpful for learning the system. Do i dare say its, Fun? Well yes i do. What needs work, optimization for fast forward mode, its not game breaking and the Ai doesnt get stuck so its not a big deal but you might see what i see. Sound design is ok, The music is cool, the sound effects of attacking bots gives you a heads up when you might be busy doing other stuff. I had a tiny group i couldnt see attacking me and only cause i heard them i started looking closer and sure enough they were in a tree line assaulting one of my blockades. I quickly redirected a group of archers to that blockade and it has been secure since. Thanks for the cool game.

unplayable, buggs blocking progress

Getting this out of the way, it's a cool concept BUT performance in endgame is horribly unoptimized. Even dropping to the low graphics option I was getting 5 fps trying to do the final battle. Also every time you try to zoom out to or out of the tactical view it freezes for 3 seconds. If this never gets improved I'll probably change this to a negative review but I'm optimistic for now. What I do like is the heavy expansion/defense style of gameplay and when you reach a new tier you get to upgrade your army's capability a lot. Returning your forces to a base that is well stocked with meds and ammo and keeping track of the angle of incoming swarms keeps the game interesting. Really just hoping the dev realizes how unoptimized the game is when the bugs (machines) spawn massive waves with the bosses and the game probably has a memory leak because it quickly starts using 5gb of memory.
