The Endless Mission

[h1] Amazing Idea but Poor Support [/h1] Would you rather watch than read? Me too. Check out the highlights of the gameplay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8u5Xk3kOqU Endless Mission is a great idea on paper. Get a game with a wide set of tools and things you can do and unleash it on the community to let them go wild and see what they come up with. The issues start to crop up pretty much immediately however and I want to touch on a few of them because I think they are easily fixable. The first problem is that the tool set is not necessarily new user friendly. It basically looks like a 3d modeler program or an Unreal Engine level designer with way less customization. It's enough to scare people off before they even get started. There doesn't seem to be any way to do things quickly (like paste 10 sets of roads quickly) and navigating the list of thousands of objects can be tedious. I think this is the most critical thing to fix as players will see that, be immediately turned off by it and then leave the game. It has to be so user friendly that people are encouraged to hop in and try to design levels. Right now many levels are SUPER poorly designed because the tool set is j…

Currently the game is too laggy for me to play despite the fact I met specifications, and got worse as I continued into levels. To be expected with early access. There is definitely a good game here if it can get a larger audience and work on stability issues. Also the main character who acts as a tutorial guide is obnoxious to me, but I've grown tired of the scatter brained "lol that was random" goofy characters. The voice actress does a fine job and the other voice cast I have heard have been fine. Still it's early access and there is a lot of potential here. I have seen RTS style games, horde mode games, platformers, and racing games, and there seems to be the tools for more. Definitely worth checking out once its more stable.

Editor has zero instructions or info-bubbles and is laid out like a 3D editing program in that the items list is a literal list with small thumbnails, and all the scripts are un-commented code. I tried editing the speed of my vehicle in the racing game example, but despite setting it to billions and renaming the vehicle from 'Medium' to 'ummm', nothing was changed when played. The RTS sample is a first-person hack n slash where you stand there adjusting sliders to fight and move objects while the town is attacked. The platforming game is alright, albeit you can't see where you are jumping to without tilting the camera from top-down. You move in the air as fast as on the ground making it easy to miss the platform. I joked that the character, controls and design reminded me of Fur Fun, but now I wonder. The only custom game I thought was interesting was the Talos Principle -style puzzle where you use the hacking mechanic to move & rotate the shapes to get the gems. That level should have been the first level rather than a confused AI voice in an over-detailed, full bloom hallway. Medium settings lag quite a bit in the hub building, and lowering the resolution only makes everything…

good game to try out

It's Hack 'n' Slash in 3d (puzzle action rpg where you can manipulate variables of most things in the game if you can find a USB slot to stick your sword into), with modability, user content, and so much more. I'm not sure How much is available right now, because I've only put in an hour or so, but as long as the team behind this continues work on it to introduce more content, it's going to continue to be great.

This is a great game where you can change the game as you play it! It's still in early access, but the idea is amazing, and I am looking forward to see where it goes as it is developed!
