About The Bolt Age

About the game


‘The Bolt Age” is a dynamic action game, full of prodigious retro-futurist designs (Steampunk – Raygun Gothic) and shadowy creatures from another dimension. In story mode, the player will enjoy hours of fun with this 3d Cover Shooter. We will put ourselves in the shoes of William Bolt, an intelligent apprentice of science, Nikola Tesla’s pupil, but trained in the art of war with the purpose of stopping the announced invasion of inconceivable beings, coming from a dimension of death (H.P. Lovecraft creative Worlds)

The Story


Nikola Tesla accidentally discovers in a scientific experiment, a dimension replete with horrible ancestral beings. Without proof to prove it, he begins to prepare the defense of the earth of a future invasion prophesied in esoteric sources. At the same time, he sends his pupil, William Bolt, to train in the art of war, in order that him, with the fabulous weapons developed by Tesla, will be the hero that will faces hordes of extra-dimensional beings

Innovation


With original retro-futuristic atmosphere, halfway between Steampunk and Raygun Gothic, you can use up to 30 different weapons, based on the use of electricity and other types of unconventional energy.
The use of some peculiar non-lethal weapons can be a great advantage, but misused can become a setback. The intelligent and strategic use of these weapons will be a key point.

At the beginning and between each level there will be a kinematics to drive the story.

It has some great aesthetics and a nice story, but the game needs to be polished, I will return to this review at a later date, after some updates have been made to remove the bugged enemies, which can spawn in walls, be unable to die, be invisible and there are issues with an inability to change weapons at time. Pros Good Aesthetics Nice Story Great Graphics Smooth animation for the electricity Level design is decent cons It is just way to buggy at the minute to be playable, WITH UPDATES this will be a very PROMISING GAME but it just needs some fixes to make it playable.

This is the first review I will change, I really hate to, but the difficulty spikes were just the tip of the iceberg, I thought it was just going to be a really intense game, but playable... You will randomly teleport from level to level, with no warning or reason, skipping and missing out on the story which is the whole reason to play the game. Enemies will either be highly aggressive and in far too large of numbers, or they will ignore you totally. The weapons are cool, the levels are great, the story is wonderful, but the game in the state it is in, is unplayable. I am 2 hours in, so no refund for me, but I highly recommend avoiding this one, it drew me in and now I have to sit here, wondering, will this game ever be fixed? Will I ever be able to enjoy it? I do not like saying these things, I wish the game played well, I really did... I could look past many faults, but when the game skips levels, and when the enemies are either entirely overwhelming, or underwhelming, it just seems like the game really does not want you to enjoy it.

I was excited to try this game out as from the trailer it looked like a game a really enjoyed in my childhood. It did turn out to feel that way, the visuals were pretty cool and the weapons felt exciting to use. Unfortunately my laptop has served it's time and can't handle this game's VFX so I'll pick it up again when I get a new rig.

An amazingly interesting and fun shooter. Tesla and his inventions add atmosphere. Lots of bosses and electric weapons. Of course it's not Doom, but it's really fun to play!
