Utopia Must Fall

Impeccable vibes.

Love the aesthetic, love the music, gameplay feels good, all unlocks discovered so far in 16 hours. Waiting for more content. would recommend.

great game

Velice zajímavý a originální počin. Hra vzdává hold starým arcadovým titulům, ale povyšuje na mnohem vyšší level. Grafika je jednoduše nádherná, hratelnost návyková. První hodiny ve hře jsou chaos, ale jak si člověk osahá mechaniku hry a začne hrát víc takticky, lze dosahovat velmi vysokých score, kdy jedna hra trvá klidně hodinu. Zatím jsem lehce nad 1mio. Hra těžkne každým dalším kolem a to brutálně. Zajímalo by mě, jestli hra nabízí nějaký konec.

im not often one to write reviews, but this game hit different. every single aspect about this game feels polished and well balanced, like the developers really took everything into consideration. the gameplay loop continues to stay addicting and satisfying whether you're on day 1, or day 30. the soundtrack is pretty awesome too. i love how it blends from ambient sounding background noise to tense boss music. the more i play this game, the more i find something i would consider "the cherry on top", turning this game into a delicious parfait that i just can't get enough of. also, im a sucker for super stylized and/or retro looks. also2, im a sucker2 for modernized old games, like how Nova Drift could be considered a roguelite modernization of Atari's 1979 Asteroids.

Very fun and challenging.

Really wanna leave a negative review but this game has too much potential. This game is REALLY good. Style, gameplay, mechanics, everything is good. Almost. This game has twobig problems that turns me off playing it. First problem is special opportunities. Half of them are useless or not worth enough to pick. Second problem is lack of variability. Don't get me wrong, i know that this game is in early access and blah blah blah, but i'm not talking about content, i'm talking about strategy. At first i thought i just have skill issue, but after i read other reviews i was proven wrong. I tried multiple strategies, trying to upgrade different trees, tried to change who i target and what i'm trying to achieve, but no matter what i do, i always die on or before second boss because i get bombarded by beefy projectiles and my systems can't keep up. I ONLY achieved my first win through berserker. TL;DR there is only one winning strategy, no variations allowed or ur dead. Still, i don't hate this game. I hope it will get better, rebalanced, become more fun in general. I recommend it if you want to have fun gameplay for 4-5 hours, but after that you'll start noticing that none of your strategies work but one. I wish developers luck.
