✦ AI summary
Players praise this game as a fun, content-rich blend of roguelike exploration and tower defense mechanics with satisfying combat and plenty of progression systems, particularly enjoying it in multiplayer. However, common complaints center around poor polish, confusing UI and tutorial elements, and control issues like non-standard button mapping and missing crosshair options that create usability friction. The game has solid bones but needs refinement in accessibility and presentation to match its entertaining core gameplay.
THE BUTTONS ARE WEIRD AND THE GAME IS DEAD
This game is a mixed bag of good and bad. It's undeniably an indie game. It's taken a ton of the greatest things from games like Painkiller, Left 4 Dead, Serious Sam, and CoD Zombies and combined it into this wild hodge podge where its equal parts map exploration (the rogue like shoot em up with objectives section) for resources then used to hold out in a compound (the defend your base siege section). The concept is fantastic. The enemy models and map design are fun and interesting enough to keep the game going. The downside is that it isn't polished. I look past model and texture glitches for the most part in indie games (and there are plenty of examples of that here), however the UI and tutorial elements in this game are unusable. All around the game is just extremely confusing. The tutorial soft locked for me. My friend and I were able to "beat" the game on normal, but the victory felt out of place because it happened so suddenly and without a boss fight or anything to signify the run was complete. There are roguelike elements to this game, but I couldn't tell you a damn thing about how or when we got such upgrades. You can press "q" to see ammo upgrades and "t" for tech tree up…
As I'm the lead developer of this game, I couldn't expect this amazing result of enjoyable gameplay. This game is awesome, it's like an action and horror at the game time movie. The amount of elements,perks,talents,abilities,weapons, character classes, upgrades and play styles is very vast. Progressive hardness and players power makes this game very enjoyable. Looting and rewards makes the gameplay really addictive. Killing creatures and explosions all over the place is very satisfying. I enjoyed the game most when played with friends
Holy smokes this game is fun. The devs are doing a great job and there is sooooooooo much to do and so much room for progression. If you love killing zombies and massive hordes of enemies THIS IS YOUR GAME!!!!!!!!!!
Really fun game, rougelike elements mixed with fps and complete carnage = A good time. Alot more in depth than you would think with the way you play the map and what perks you get change the pace of the game.
i really like this game its super fun and the dev is doing everything he can as fast as possible the only thing i did not like was there was no crossair like in real life i guess thats good but as a fps gamer i would like something like a crossair but thats just my personal preference so i did my own diy crossair on my monitor paper and spit that did the trick so overall its one of my fav games
