About Spacen: The Beginning

Developed by ECHTNICE Studio comes the single player space shooter SPACEN. Fight your way through endless waves of enemies in bullet-hell style and defeat powerful bosses. Between missions, you explore Space One Station in Third Person View. Here you can exchange collected scrap parts of your opponents for weapon upgrades and thus improve the fighting power of your spaceship. By interacting with NPCs, you will learn about the history of the resistance. The SPACEN universe is waiting for you!

STORY:
The earth was destroyed by people of the SPACEN dimension. Only the astronauts of the International Space Station survived and founded the resistance. The resistance followed the path of the destroyers into the SPACEN dimension in which they set up the SPACE ONE station and from which they start their missions against the destroyers of the earth. As Gary Rogers, you are fighting alongside resistance to Earth's destroyers.

  • A classical Space Shooter with different perspectives
  • 3D low poly graphics
  • Upgradeable ship weapons
  • Powerful end bosses
  • RPG elements between missions
  • Explore the space ONE station
  • Sidequests

Spacen: The Beginning fast game with modern day graphics with easy controls that moves from location A to B to C and so on, good game. Personal Suggested Purchase Price: $0.49 Or Less During Sale

While the game is rough around the edges, the art style, sounds, and spaceship sections are all fairly decent. I would recommend improving the tank controls seen in the hub, the camera after dying in game, some of the animations are slightly broken and could use adjustment, sometimes bullets pass through enemies, fixing some of the subtitles, and some enemies are broken and unfairly challenging. The game overall has some flaws but has a decent base. I would recommend play testing and tweaking.

Игра 'Spacen: The Beginning' оставила смешанные впечатления. С одной стороны, визуальный стиль завораживает: яркие неоновые пейзажи космических станций и детализированные модели кораблей создают отличную атмосферу. Саундтрек тоже на высоте, идеально дополняет происходящее на экране и погружает в мир игры. Однако, геймплей оставляет желать лучшего. Сюжет кажется довольно простым и предсказуемым, а задания повторяются довольно быстро, что приводит к монотонности. Боевая система, хотя и выглядит зрелищно, ощущается немного деревянной и не хватает глубины. Несмотря на недостатки, в игре есть потенциал. Ей нужна более проработанная сюжетная линия и разнообразие миссий, а также доработка механики боя. Если разработчики учтут критику и внесут необходимые изменения, то 'Spacen: The Beginning' сможет стать по-настоящему интересной игрой. Пока что это скорее красивая обертка без особо вкусной начинки. Рекомендовать игру можно тем, кто ценит визуальную составляющую и кому не принципиален глубокий геймплей.

- first person controls aren't great - graphics look decently high effort, but not all that coherent - the text displays *really* slowly. especially painful when interacting and you have to wait 10 seconds (not an exaggeration) for a single line of text to show up - the gameplay is a really mid (if that) arcade shooter

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?
