Metal Garden

An odd game that made me thirst for me I had a random 500 view video from a youtuber I never heard of titled "Metal Garden Full Playthrough" an absolute classic name I know I took a quick look, maybe 10 seconds where I saw him descending into a large room full of metal pipes, broken rails, and the eerie passive sound of wind and his own footsteps I was in love. A quick check and 5.99 later I had bought the game and instantly loaded into it. By the middle of the game I had settled in. Let myself breath in what this game was. Who our silent protagonist was. A nomad. With only one desire I know there is more going on in terms of gameplay, specifically referring to the injury system. Perhaps in my next playthrough I shall see it as I'd like to get a few more achievements I had missed. TLDR; Game is atmospheric, truly sells the odd dystopia the rest of the world feels like its in while our MC feels like an observer. Gameplay wise, it does feel a little lack-luster as if you are decent at any generic FPS you will not have much difficulty (I played on normal without modifiers for fair's sake) with the fights. That said, I love the small projectile time the weapons have, it almost felt like Superhot in some moments. Where you're just dodging a bullet by a hair while firing back with your own. Music wise, the game doesn't have a whole lot, but when it does. It hits. Sound wise, game fits the 2000s vibe it was going for. Really nails it on the head and had me several times describing it as "this game makes me feel like I am playing Half Life again"

Good Game.

coolest indie game i have played in a minute. Truly a game that leaves you begging for more in the best way possible. Would loved more games/stories set in this universe.

It was very good experience, I enjoyed every second of this game.

fantastic

such a beautiful game with a pretty good gameplay loved it.

Metal Garden is neat. It's got good atmosphere, good shooting (although it's remarkably easy), and is short and to the point. It's a "narrative" FPS in that there's a linear story with a few branching paths. It's nothing amazing, but it's fun and good enough. For the price, I was totally satisfied.
