Mecha Blade

Mecha Blade is one of hundreds of low effort retro-pixel JRPG asset/construction kit flips spamming the Steam catalog, made with the Sapphire Studios SRPG Studio video game construction kit, an inferior ripoff of the already craptastic RPG Maker, only so much worse. Like all SRPG Studio "games", this is essentially a bunch of low quality/canned assets from SRPG Studio coupled with a cringeworthy high school bible club fan fiction. Isn't it sacrelige to make fan fictions from the bible? Apparently so. Oh well. Putting aside the garbage bible tract interpretation of religious texts with the addition of nuclear weapons (I did say it was a terrible fan fiction), the "game" is extremely badly made, likely the result of just a couple of hours spent with SRPG Studio... it truly is trash that makes RPG Maker asset flips look like Zelda: Breath of the Wild. As with all SRPG Studio games, the poor quality engine does not work in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer. The point can be made that the intention of SRPG Studio is to make demos and small games to pass around friends, and sho…

Interesting basic concept for a game, but quite bare bones and feels very unfinished/amateurish. Massive and mostly empty maps, very inconsistent difficulty, many pointless/basically unusable items, curious AI that occasionally foils map design including maps that occasionally clear themselves without opportunity for player interaction, very limited options for most of the playthrough, and a few other similar gripes accumulate over a playthrough. Personally, I encountered a section of game that seems impossible barring highly unreasonable RNG, and wasn't thrilled enough to see if an alternate route through the game exists to bypass the functional softlock. It's not offensively bad. I've played worse, this does have redeeming qualities, and when it's at its best it's a basically functional Fire Emblem-spawn with a great premise. If you consider yourself a fan of SRPGs and can enjoy the experience of a game coming apart before your eyes, you might even enjoy it like I did, and if nothing else the plot is worth experiencing if you're on a 50/50 decision. But it's definitely not good. If it's on steep sale it might be worth it if you are such a fan, and/or if you're interested in desi…

Yes, more of this stuff please!! :) This dev makes wonderful, inventive, UNIQUE and FASCINATING RPGs!! Especially if you dig dungeon crawlers in first-person, aka blobbers, and wild settings that you can tell the dev was having a ton of fun while making them! (Note - this game is turn-based strategy, not a blobber.) As for this game, it has a very fun story, pretty hilarious at times and always thrilling. LOVE the Christian/Catholic/religious aspects that are just far out and WILD to see in a game like this lol. It is not taken too seriously so don't worry about being bogged down by that. It's just really enjoyable stuff. If you like flat out fun RPGs that actually hit their mark with the gameplay loop, i.e. fun and friendly, no-hassle gameplay with lots of uniqueness to the setting, story and even rulesets and mechanics, you'll dig this (and his other games.) Thanks for the cool RPGs sir!! A+! :)
