Needs a lot of polish. Controls are unresponsive and clunky. Enemy movement is random and eratic, combined with poor controls it is a game of special needs cat and mouse. Just level up your mechs and let them do the work until they get dumn and run into a wall while you're getting chased by a bunch of badies. This game could be something amazing, but it's not there yet.. So this game could be a lost gem in the retro gaming world but due to \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 programming it's not.The game is actually really fun, you travel around space, beat some aliens and other opponents, completing various missions, buy new spaceships ect. ect. it could be a very fun game if there was no darkside.The darkside of the game is that the programming is really bad and here is why:- The mouse programming ( which is absolutly not needed in this game) keeps the game crashing over and over again. Till you Figured out that keeping the mous on the middle of the screen solves the problem.- THe resolution options of the game dont work properly. If you change the resolution the screen gets of center so you cant see things like health or shield- Sometimes for no reason you cant board spacestations or planets. The game keeps you on your ship and you can try it over and over again with no chance to broad anything- Sometimes the game gets stuck in a loop of spaceshipfights. That actually happend only once and leaded me to glitch the hell out of the game. Because everytime you try to scan a space object a fight with an enemyspaceship breaksout. In my case the enemy was a puny little ship that didn't match mine in any aspect, so it took me no time to defeat it foor about 50 times, but you got always new loot from it. After that i got bored and made some missions and broke the stuck loop.So if there is any update wich would fix the problems above than it will be a gem in retro gaming but actually its not.. If you want to help this guy raise his new baby, and be there to hold his hand through his first attempt at making a game, then this game is for you. If you want a sandbox RPG that gets updated and runs well without a dozen bugs hitting you in the face every 5 minutes, look elsewhere. The game looks cool, seems like a good idea, but it is my opinion that this developer has little to no experience making games. The game isnt optimized, runs like crap on new systems, the options menu is an abysmal joke, and there are soooooo many bugs, its not worth $10. If this game goes on sale for $3, it would be worth it. But it seems that releasing new DLC is more improtant than polishing this jagged rusty hunk o junk. I wrote this bad review after seeing that he released DLC that has nothing to do with fixing the games jagged edges. (Note to the Dev) DLC is for AFTER the game is released, otherwise, it seems like you are just collecting money for a broken game. Pets should be free for having to put up with this hunk o crap. Youd be better off getting Junk Jack on iOS for $.99. Having recently given up on Fortune's Tavern as a hopeless game i tried this one. I wondered long if this one works better and if i should buy it... though i see they both share the same kind of combat engine. Surely this one will work better right? No. It's terrible. And i have come to the conclusion that this game engine just isn't cut for fun action oriented gameplay. Sure you can get this to work somewhat but the fun part is just missing. Combat on ships is something that i can imagine some people love despite(or because) the sluggish way the characters move giving you a stuttering Archon -like linearity to combat. Fortune's Tavern dejavuu is very strong here. The biggest sin i think this game engine brings to the table is that it overshadows the story. You are spendng so much time on being annoyed by it that you just dont even care about the story. Yes i understand, some people like it. But i just can't as there really are WORKING action games such as Secret of Magia that does the action part right. Not going to be spending much ink on the game mechanics itself - i see others have already taken care of that. Instead i am going to just issue a general warning for action games that has this game engine underneath. Now by this i dont mean rpgmaker games generally as i have recently learn't to like a lot of more traditional rpgmaker games but this particular engine that is used on the more action oriented games is just a general disaster and i will avoid it like the plague in the future.. I've seen worse, but only a few. The controls are obnoxious and don't really make movement possible while shooting. Moving around is a challenge by itself, even on your own ship, especially if you're trying to open a console. Which is another thing, objects with which you can interact should be more obvious from the background.Overall, the game has a lot on which it can improve, I barely played it before dying without understanding why. I believe there was a glitch and a monster killed me before it showed up on screen. Who knows.I'll leave an updated review if I play it further. Bottom line: don't buy unless it's a dollar.
