About MetälBörn

When was the last time you felt like a heavy metal fan? MetalBorn gives you the feeling of the golden age of the genre and also the emergence of a new musical group which is on the rise and it is called: Electronic Music.

You will immerse yourself in this first person shooter in a world where our hero, the last follower of heavy metal, is chosen by his god to reconquer the key points of power in his neighborhood, these being three points of conquest. Set to fulfill his hellish mission, our heavy metal warrior heads to the streets of Blüdstock equipped with his Kilmister-blessed weaponry.

Arriving at street level, he realizes that his house is the last bastion of the "Metallic Fortress", the name by which Blüdstock is known, the flagship place and cradle of Heavy Metal. Finding himself surrounded by minions of the evil goddess Lillith, Robert fights his way through the angry mob to the sources of power.

Having the path to trace under his choice, Robert will decide which party to conquer which he used to attend as a child, as this became a source of power after the incident with Father Judas, which allowed parties and concerts to celebrate Lilith's Faith.

Once there, and after bathing in the electronic blood of his enemies, our dark paladin performs the sacred act of "The Disc Change". This deadly sin causes the source of power to change masters and therefore its former owner loses power. According to the scriptures of the Sacred Pantheon, when one of the sons of music decides to claim his territory, he must perform the ritual at least 3 times to rule it.

Therefore, the main objective of our infernal hero is to reconquer the parties of the city while the followers of Lillith try to stop him.

In this action game with acrobatic movements and verticality, it generates an atmosphere of tension and frenzy when facing the enemies of electronic music that don't stop appearing until they defeat you.

✦ AI summary

MetälBörn is a brief, metal-themed FPS student project that offers enjoyable gunplay and level design within its short runtime, though players note it suffers from minimal content, a lengthy tutorial, repetitive audio, and control issues that detract from the experience. Opinions vary on whether the game delivers value, with some finding it a fun diversion despite its brevity and others viewing it as an unfinished college assignment rather than a complete product. Most players seem to appreciate the effort and creative direction but acknowledge significant limitations in depth and polish.

Proyecto pequeñito pero un guiño de amor a Brütal Legend en formato FPS.

"MetälBörn" is just another student project dumped onto the Steam store, one of thousands. It's from ESAT in Europe. Student projects might look better than amateur shovelware, but they aren't real games. This is just a glorified homework assignment. It lacks the depth and value you get from professionally developed product because it was made for a grade, not for players. Schools shouldn't be using Steam to show off student projects. It might be fine for the school's marketing, but it clutters the Steam store with pollution... we have to sort past all these short student tech demos just so we can find real, full games from professional developers. This is a case of a game dev college putting its own interests before the interests of gamers. Here, the students almost made a hybrid FPS and parkour platformer, which showed promise, but of course because this a student project, they didn't finish it and walked away after they got their grades. Dumping abandoned, half finished games onto Steam and expecting pats on the back... yes, ESAT has trained these students to be exactly like AAA game developers these days. There's a somewhat silly plot of metal fans vs "technos"... Jack Bla…

Took about 20 minutes to beat. But it's really an enjoyable experience. Fun movement, guns, and level design.

Had some issues with controls, like being unable to register me using right or left click, but otherwise was rather entertaining. Enemy AI needs some work, though.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

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.

Toxic Commando Game Pass: subscribe, or buy the key?

The Toxic Commando Game Pass add landed on 12 November. Our price record since late September shows the key route barely moved, which changes what a subscription is worth.

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.
