✦ AI summary

Metal Goose has impressive art and satisfying combat mechanics that show strong potential, but it suffers from significant performance issues, bugs, and janky gameplay that make it difficult to recommend in its current early access state. Players praise the creative weapon design and rewarding combat feel, while consistently citing frame rate problems, optimization issues, and audio bugs as major deterrents. Most reviewers suggest waiting for future updates to see if these technical problems are resolved before diving in.

Let me start this review off by saying this game has A LOT of potential! The art work is amazing, combat is intuitive & rewarding while not being overly difficult. As a 1st project from a 15 YEAR OLD this is truly a great work in progress. But that's exactly what it is, a work in progress. The game is unfortunately terribly optimized, resulting in constant lag spikes & frame drops to the point of it not really being playable past the tutorial since Boomer Shooter's rely on that steady 60fps smooth gameplay. I know this game is only in early access & been out for a couple of months, but I think these issues are too much even for an early access game. I wrote this review to remind myself to come back to this game in a few months or years to check it out after it's been optimized, and to also let the creator know what needs to be improved on in the future. I look forward to (hopefully) changing my review in the coming months after these issues have been addressed. 1.5 / 10 (Rating based ENTIRELY on the fact that it doesn't run :( at least good visuals)

Veeeery Janky and buggy. Needs LOADS of work still. Be careful with the sound menu. Its a bit of a buggy mess that is liable to blow your ears out. But also very appealing. Combat is already really satisfying. Especially when hits connect with the enemies. Never will forget what was my first hit with the Rockethammer. Some things I think it needs besides tons of bugfixes: - Actual ambience. - Combat music should cut out, lower down or change to something less hectic when out of combat. - Some of the weapons feel a bit are too slow. Burt I think the actual issue is the jankyness when switching weapons which I feel like its supposed to be an integral part of gameplay. if that is the case consider putting some of the weapons on inputs that directly fire them, like the grenade thrower in Doom Eternal. I'd love to built up heat with the bolt thrower and then unleash the hammer in a hectic moment. Having to change in the hectic of combat to the Hammer first makes me want to stay with the current weapon, especially consider the universal usefullness of the base axe. - The second form of the first melee weapons feels completely useless to me. - If it weird that the soldiers can't l…

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.
