Space Tales

The game so far is fun, the gameplay is fun, I like the UI they created for unit groups abilities and their upgrades. I dislike the game art style, but I think the gameplay is worth it. The worst part about the game so far is the sound overall, the character voice lines are so repetitive and annoying, the music always the same on loop and it is annoying. I play with music disabled, otherwise the game so far is great

Short and sweet. Definitely a good value for money if you like RTS, and a solid base for a potential Space Tales 2. The plus: the units and their movements were fun, the enemies diverse, and the research trees offer a lot of variability. Except in the last mission, the game definitely rewards micromanagement more over base management, which was fine by me. The lab system to capture monsters is really interesting. The minus: It definitely has its share of weird dialog mistakes, but it's not too distracting given the game's style. The lab feature feels like an experimentation more than a full-baked feature. I wish more monsters were available for taming.

Not a good game, art is ok, story is just filler, but gameplay... Gameplay is crap, someone designed he campaign to be as anoying as posible just to squeeze as many hours as they can from they very short missions, i could have finished this in 3 hours or less if this wasnt designed this way, idc if campaign is short or long i just care that i can enjoy it, and i didnt enjoy this

great style mutually exclusive upgrades for units varied enemies cool base building with hubs

This game was a surprising hit with me. I was expecting a niche little indie rts; but I got something with a good level of polish and fun level designs. While I was a little frustrated at first with the controls, they have a full remapping system so it was easily remedied; but other than that no complaints. I've been really enjoying the challenge the levels give where you have to think differently in each one. Maybe a bit more instruction for niche things like the summoning of heroes or that you dont need power for miners would be good. (I figured both out on my own over after going 5 missions in XD)

A raygun-gothic asymmetrical RTS game. The game has a very strong pulp space-opera stylization, including raygun-gothic technology, hypersaturated colors, goofy looking aliens and comic-book speech bubbles. This is underscored by synthetizer music score. There is no voice acting in cutscenes, but units have a few voiced barks, that are appropriately campy. Mechanically, the game is an asymerical or PvE RTS with base building. The base contains upgradable buildings and connected network of hubs, which can be converted to defensive buildings. Map area covered by hubs is a resource that unlocks higher tech level, forcing player to expand. Units are diverse and complement each other. Their set is limited, but each has its use. They can be upgraded with new abilities between campaign missions, similar to Starcraft 2. A novel ability is to capture a mini-boss alien megafauna in missions and gain them as a summonable hero units. Overall the gameplay is fun and has a nice flow. The campaign follows the stylization as a campy space opera, but instead of being played as a comedy, it goes to some dark places, including cosmic horror. The story is a bit predictable, but that is expect…
