Nelo

Zero communication from the developers since 2021. Yes, I know people are going to say "well, if you check Twitter" or "go on their Discord", but I should not have to go on a 3rd party site to get news on a game. I understand they were a 2-person studio and that life happens, but some kind of communication here would be appreciated. Communication gripes aside, the game does answer the question of "how fast is too fast". Feels like Warframe or Vanquish with the speed turned way up, and it's not always clear why certain moves do not trigger. It's interesting, but it needs a lot of work it's probably never going to get.

It's so rare to find a game that actually feels new and fresh...I've played thousands of games in my life( look at my steam Library) and this actually felt new(so rare).. so of course the devs abandonment it. and then while enjoying the speed and combos I hit a huge red glitch wall ...that prevents me from moving forward...(after moving 3 power cores)....either its poor game design or a glitch.... fantastic...

Nelo is an amalgam of a bunch of cool and good ideas, but they are loosely connected with tape. The game combines both melee action combat with third person and twin stick shooting elements. You have different enemy classes, but their individuality gets lost when everything is shooting at you all at once. It takes away from strategizing which enemy should take priority over the rest and shifts to shooting everything on-screen to thin the herd. Playing on any difficulty than Recruit is a mistake. Platforming was by far the worst thing experienced in the game. It was too floaty and just felt off. I also felt stages dragged on longer than should have, with them taking 30 minutes to an hour to complete. The mission objectives also left a lot to be desired. Obtaining orbs scattered across the stages to progress got old quickly. I can only recommend this to hardcore action game and shmup fans and with the caveat it's bought during a sale. Played version 0.1.4.1. I'm only giving it a positive rating because a lot of the ideas the game have were novel in 2017 and to an extent still is. And I would hope the developers return to the game in the future.

I liked it. It was a decent game for being so new, but the amount of combat was too much. Now, that may be a preference thing, but it was just so much.

feels like warframe but your always gauss and ALWAYS fast

I only paid 5$ but I wish it was more. I played for 37 minutes, and I can tell they sold an unfinished game, and while it seems fun, IF i could i'd probably ask for my money back, not that i can since i bought this when they were still working on it... a shame...
