An interesting school project game that keeps you busy for about an hour of your time, give or take. Machine Heart tells a story about robots, human consciousness and gives you the choice of deciding the fate of humanity. The art in this game was really pretty and the design was great. I was kinda laughing at the animations as they were a little bit wonky, but they weren't too bad! The voice acting was lovely and the story was interesting as well. I had a little bit of troubles with some bugs that were almost game breaking, but I reinstalled the game and continued from my save to thankfully get past it. You shud still be aware that there can be bugs in this game and some might cause you to have to start the game over, reinstall the game or load a save. Taking all of that into consideration, I really think it's a great free game and definitely worth checking out!

Not much gameplay, the puzzles are not very hard but it has one of those "living within a simulation" lore. The finale is nice but given that the game is only 30 min long, it doesn't give much weight or emotional impact on the choice. Kinda reminded me of Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. The ending soundtrack was kickass though, kinda shame not to use it in another big action game.

Janky controls but an intriguing world. Hard to fully believe the supposed emotional development of your main character given the length. but it is free! you get to be robot. so.

Such a neat little game. I enjoyed both the gameplay and the story. This is one of those games I wish were longer.
Not recommended Feb 10, 2024
I couldn't get this to run on the correct monitor without a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and it wouldn't end up running at the correct refresh rate anyway. What's with student and solo dev projects having ZERO graphics options? Is this not something Unity/Unreal will do most of the work to include by default? I wasn't excited to play very far by the time I got it working.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
