RIG Riot

is good.

I bought this in the middle of the night while tired but if you liked armored core for answer you'd like this.

This game gave me a big grin, from the minute I first launched it to the moment I entered my first raid. My (late) older brother was away for a large portion of my childhood, serving in the military, so we didn't get to spend alot of time together when I was younger; The few times he was able to get leave and visit, he brought his PS2 and a copy of Armored Core: The last raven. Fast forward- We had spent the last 7 years hangin' online together, rekindling our love of video games, music, art, he was the best man at my wedding, and we even played ACVI when it came out on day one. I lost him back in May this year, and it's been absolutely world-shattering for me. This game, however, is SO reminiscent of all the things my brother loved about Armored core and mecha video games in general, and I absolutely KNOW that he would've loved this game. I'm not trying to give some sob story over why you should buy this game; only just sharing why I love this game so much and plan to play ENDLESS hours more. TLDR; if you like, or have ever liked the Armored Core games, Zone of the Enders, or other fast-paced Mecha Third-person-shooters before, I highly recommend you add this to your Library. It's a solid pick made by a developer who knows what makes those games so great. 10/10 Wish you could've played this gem, Rob. Miss you, dude.

Really fun time. I've only played a little bit so far, but it scratches an itch that has been bothering me since Armored Core Verdict Day. It feels not great to compare the game to a triple A title, *but* the combat and movement does feel like every good idea from every Armored Core game since Armored Core 4 was used as inspiration for this (and a step further: the game has a downward dash in case you're caught floating in the air or need to fly downward quickly. Which is a feature no Armored Core game has!). Mech building is quite fun as well due to the semi-procedural nature of the parts, and the inclusion of the backpack on your mech giving you alternate passives utilities is quite enjoyable as it adds a layer of complexity to your mech build that isn't just leaning into a stat identity as much as possible. All in all it's very straightforward about what it is and what you'll be doing in it, and is a very fun gameplay loop overall with a ton of Rougelite elements slapped on top with the option to play a little more like a Rougelike instead if you prefer.

A great start, hope dev sticks with it and makes it the best fast mech game hands down

Alright, if you like fast-paced mech action this game will be right up your alley. Plenty of customization and RNG parts farming to go around. There's a bit of a learning curve to this game and how it handles it's mission upgrade system. It can be really frustrating in the beginning to figure out WTF is going on. That said, once you learn it, it's a very interesting system. Some combinations of upgrades to certain weapons will turn you into an absolute Enemy Mech Deletion Unit. Once you hit the late-game and start adding in the patrols and really get a decent mech started the fun kinda drops off because you can get super broken if the RNG is with you. You just kinda have to be pointed in the general direction of enemy mechs and they get vaporized. It's a great little 10-20hr game for fans of fast-paced mech combat. Well worth your money. Props to the developer!
