Cyberwar: Neon City

Выглядит как вход в пушказемье, но играется отвратительно, с первого уровня на экран насрали всем чем было: взрывы, валюта, враги, эффекты. И самое главное всё громкое и яркое. Дали способности, но про них в обучении не говорят не слово. Оружия нет, зато есть модная метапрогрессия, а это значит что ты вынужден гриндить уровни, ибо сложность зависит не от твоего скила, а валюты что собрал. И да русского языка нет, а диалогами насрали.

After an experiment performed on animals goes wrong, or entirely right, depending on who you ask, one monkey specimen develops incredible cognitive abilities. With this newfound knowledge, the monkey creates an army of similar soldiers that starts a war against humanity, forcing people to band together into small underground resistance groups. Luckily, they have developed a technology that allows an android to clone himself after each death, and you get to play as this android. The gameplay is similar to that of any other top down shooter. You have movement, a dash that lets you pass through enemies and other environmental threats, and a main attack that comes from a robot shark that replaces your main hand. The dash has to recharge for a second or two after use, while ammo is not a concern because the basic gun has unlimited ammunition. You can simply keep the button pressed and fire continuously. There are also a couple of extra skills, which you activate with separate buttons and have to wait longer to use again. The first is a grenade, the second releases a pulse that destroys enemy projectiles, and the third fires several shots at once. However, these three skills change depending on the type of robot shark you are using. You unlock new sharks with special coins earned during runs. Each shark also has a different attack pattern, as well as its own damage, fire rate, and critical hit parameters. A run follows a roguelike structure, starting with a map of routes that lets you choose your next battle or event. The map is made up of tiles, and you always have three options to choose from. You can only move forward, so there is no way to go back. Picking events in a straight line will end a run faster, while choosing diagonal options leads to more rewards. The most common events are battles that take place in contained arenas, where the goal is to kill all enemies and open the exit. Enemies appear in waves, so you do not have to deal with all of them at once. Loot comes in three forms, although one of them, neon coins, required for new shark guns, is rare and only comes from special events. The other two, coins and bolts called junks, can drop from almost anywhere, including enemies and destructible objects inside arenas. The difference between them is that coins have to be spent during a run, while bolts carry over and are used for meta progression back at the base. Destruction is generous and encouraged because destructible objects can give you as much loot as enemies, if not more. If you perform particularly well during an event by killing enemies quickly without taking damage, a piñata will spawn. Smashing it provides a generous amount of loot and can even reward you with neon coins. Similar to regular battles are upgrade events, where you also fight enemies. However, after killing them all, you get to choose an upgrade from a random selection of three. These upgrades come in different rarities and improve various stats, allowing you to choose things such as increased critical hit chance, faster movement, or more loot. Another form of upgrades becomes available when you collect enough experience orbs from defeated enemies, allowing you to improve one of your skills. The remaining events are more unique and only appear once on the grid. There is a puppet that hosts a classic three cup game where you have to guess where the prize is, a challenge where you must survive against much more dangerous enemies to earn neon coins, a shop where you can spend coins on upgrades similar to those found in upgrade events, slots where you can test your luck by spending coins, and a few other surprises. The goal of a run is to reach and defeat a boss, after which you can continue on another grid for as long as you can. Each new boss introduces a new environment and new enemies, although there are no major unique additions beyond that. As is often the case with this type of game, failure is part of the progression system. As menti…

This game has so much going for it and so much fighting it. The hack games are annoying, the sound design is good in places and flat in others. There is a chest mechanic that gives you currency and doesn't even give clinking noises or anything else when throwing money at you. So much talking taking away from the game, when i started I just wanted to fight, but a million characters to talk to stopping you from getting in action. Then when I start the actual game the first level i get 2 fight only in two rooms total due to annoying random options being thrown at me. The pixel graphics are top notch and the fighting is ok, I want to give this a positive review, you really should try it on your own. But too many little things that drive me crazy. I would love to sit down with the devs an hour and play the game with them and give feedback.
