Microbes and Machines

Seemingly well made game. But far too reliant on a grindy meta progression in order to level up and actually make any progress. Pair this with essentially no content/variation and the game just gets extremely repetitive extremely fast. All rooms are basically just empty with the same couple enemies that spawn, that you deal with in the exact same way every time. Bosses are bullet sponges and repeat the same couple attacks forever and take a century to kill. Game is cheap, but otherwise you are infinitely better off playing either Monolith or Comet Striker, or any other number of other twin stick roguelikes. 1 of the positive reviews stated that the game apparently scales with your level so you can't actually grind to make it easier, but based on my low level experience and what I can see from the trailer, that is objectively not the case.

For the asking price, it's an instant purchase. What this game sets out to do, it does really well. It is limited in scope and depth, but I would rather a game keep it simple and tight, vs expansive and sloppy. The core gameplay/loop is satisfying and fun for repeatedly coming back to chip away at it. Not to criticize, but this is the kind of game where you stand ZERO chance of beating it first try. You're going to be grinding. I'm fine with that... it ties into the fact that the core gameplay loop is simple but satisfying enough. I've found a few minor bugs. A couple times I couldn't open the boss door. Sometimes the map indicators dissappear - so you've opened the boss room and left to explore the rest and grab XP before the boss fight but now you can't find the room again. Nothing major... given the fact that you're gonna grind, having to quit out and restart really is no biggie.

It is a very cool game. Good and cool progression mechanics, procedural system is also good. It's a short roguelite, but that's the idea, and so the player makes several runs dying or beating the game. Note - Don't rely on A or B reviews of this or other games, watch the game trailer, and watch the gameplay, in the video media, and look for the gameplay of the game, this way you can get a better idea if you want the game or not, Don't believe in some negative reviews you see on this platform, go after the gameplay in the video media. Please release this game for all console platforms.

I've put way too much time into this game and I'm still enjoying it. It's a fun little game that you can pick up and put down whenever you want to.

Просто час стрельбы в мясные щиты атака практически не увеличиватеся. За свою цену можно немного побегать, но в целом очень скучная однообразная и имеет большие проблемы в ключевому гемплее.

Pretty fun especially for the price
