Mecha Blitz

I initially only got this game for mech design and colors but was surprised with a game that deserves an active playerbase. Arcade is also pretty fun and novel. If more online players I would sinks hrs and hrs. This game deserves marketing.

I mean, if you WANTED a boring, rigid, ugly, and unfinished version of Senko no Ronde, then here you go I guess. None of your default weapons are particularly fun to use, and in my short time I wasn't able to buy any that were fun either. The pace of combat is very jerky and offputting and the mechanics are incredibly barebones. Acceleration of Suguri 2 is a dollar less than this, and it's infinitely better(and I do NOT use that expression lightly. The first AoS is also better than Blitz, for that matter). I'm a big fan of the Shmup Fighter subgenre, and while there aren't many games in it, this is undoubtedly the worst one.

TLDR 3/5, though if they fix the issues I’d score 4/5 I don’t normally do reviews but I like this game a lot and there isn’t much out there on it. I randomly stumbled across a post about this game on Reddit and bought it. This game has a similar style to the Custom Robo games…and if you are familiar with those titles, you will know the last of those games came out in the 2000’s. As such a game like this is welcome and Mecha Blitz is very fun to play. It has a retro vibe with the top down camera and 2D combat. If you’ve ever played Armored Core you’ll pick up the controls pretty fast. Like many games in the genre you can customize your mech with variety of parts and weapon. The game is pretty straight forward – kill the other guy before he kills you. The variety of weapons allows for a few different playstyles…you can be aggro in your opponents face or you can hang back and play more methodically managing your cooldowns. Aesthetically designs are pretty traditional super robot/mecha designs. There are a variety of game modes, including PvP and also single player arcade mode. There is (mostly complete) controller support – I play on an xbox controller. Also on a more meta note I w…

Great Mecha game that just got a free content update and will get more soon!
