Invention 8

⠀

The project functions as a free-to-play, single-player 3D first-person shooter and action-puzzle hybrid, successfully reconstructing old-school arena shooter dynamics within a post-apocalyptic indie framework.Stylistically, the software embraces a nostalgic, high-velocity retro-shooter taxonomy: the narrative layout casts the operator as Marcel, a freed cyborg on a sci-fi revenge quest to locate a legendary microchip. The environmental design delivers functional variety across 5 distinct level matrices—ranging from frozen lake surfaces to subterranean caves and research laboratories—yielding immediate operational variety and solid surface-level amusement during frantic monster combat loops.Mechanically, the interactive core successfully integrates resource management with active mobility constraints: user agency is dictated by a strict energy-consumption meter that challenges the player to manage swift dash maneuvers while cycling through an expansive firearm suite featuring a shotgun, laser rifle, grenade launcher, and minigun.

This is no exception, another copy + paste job, barely any game, just a bunch of assets dumped on a basic game template. Falco has the audacity to rename the game engine he flipped and put his own name on it, which I'm pretty sure is illegal. So, "Invention 8" is partially or completely made up of stock assets, "borrowed" from asset stores and free asset websites. Little, if anything in this game is the creation of the "developer". While there's no up front price for this asset flip, the other problem…

I will kill for a crossover between all your licenses, one day. I mean come on.
