Berserk B.I.T.S

Cool idea really needs a workshop for custom B.I.T.S

HI. I just bought this. As a fan of the Battle Network series, really love the aesthetics and rounded interface like the old GBA games. I am writing this because I want improvements and added convenience in playing the game. Feeding bots is starting to get on my nerve. Manually buying food and searching for the bot with the tiny scroll dial is not fun. Really dislike it, bots are annoying they run off screen too much and i dont want to stretch the screen everytime to look for them. Also i have yet to find a way to stow hatched bots that are duplicates. Seems that i have not unlocked that storage feature. I appreciate this widget game doesn't constantly bombard with hand holding although i had to look everywhere to disable 'in-front' option so that the widgets will not block my screen usage. I see there are alot of potential to extend the possibilities with the game but i hope theres a proper endless mode so that i can just leave the game running the rest of the day in auto farm mode.

Good but confusing

Simultaneously demands too much of your attention to be an idle game and too little of your attention to be an interesting auto-battler. Takes up too much of the screen to be a good desktop companion and too little to be a proper full-screen game. You can increase the UI size to make the game more functional, but you can't scale down the font (or change it into more readable plain text) so the game becomes barely legible. The game wants to have this huge chip dex of 115 chips to help the player decide how to structure their build, but does so in this horrible UI which requires scrolling through every chip one-by-one. It wants you take care of your programs as if they are a bunch of little pets, but does so in such a shallow way; the game realises this and quickly gives you the tools to automate it so you never have to bother again. The whole game is just a hodgepodge of disparate ideas with very little concern about synergy and accessibility. It baffles me how it seems to be so well received.

TLDR:/ Game breaking bugs literally keep the game from even launching most of the time. I might give this a neutral recommendation mostly just based on aesthetics as a neat little toy, But it kind of fails at that because it takes too much screen space and fails at being an idle game because doesn't have good balance of idle vs active play. Ugg.. I SO WANTED to like this, it just looks so good that I ignored the bad reviews. But the look and the Megaman.EXE nostalgia is all this has going for it. There are many problems with this but the biggest reason I can't recommend it at all is simply that the game randomly won't even start like 90% of the time. It's actually unplayable. And looking at the forum it's been a problem since the game released almost a year ago so I don't expect the dev to fix it at this point as they clearly just have no idea how to code a functional program. But if you do manage to complete the summoning ritual and get it to launch you are met with a disappointing hodgepodge of ideas. It's actually impressive how it manages to get things wrong that seem like they couldn't happen at the same time and yet they do. I'll start here with a brief description of…
