Thermonuclear

I bought this game, thinking since it was essentially the big recommendation for the GOG sale and boy did I regret it. Firstly the game is really buggy and constantly crashes, can't tab out or it will crash, and there are constant graphics glitches which then cause the game to crash. For example items spawned after every battle glitch out and all items then are on one square, then its a coin flip whether the game crashes, and this is on every battle. This game is really unfun for a number of reasons. It draws from tactical rpgs, which usually have more than one character, you only have one which is way too little for the number of enemies the game is throwing at you. The difficulty is way too high with you only having 20 hp vs enemies with the lowest hp being around 6 which is two hits to kill from most attack skills and more often than not enemies have around 20 hp themselves. Added to that is some mobs have armour so 8 dmg from a skills that loses 1 dmg per hit, will become 4 then 3. Most status skills are useless, they do less than pure damage skills will and you dont have the time to wait to use them out because enemies will quickly do large amounts of damage to you. Most pure dmg skills have accuracy modifiers so if you miss on the first hit, you will be quickly surrounded and die. The game is way too grindy for very little payoff, grinding for about 10 missions if you're lucky will maybe give +10% dmg which is tiny or +4 hp to 20 base hp. The skills you can grab either seem to be randomly generated, so you get a choice of 2 from however many, this means you can't build a good build to try things out. added to this there are only 4 skill slots, 1 melee, 1 ranged, 1 buff and 1 special so there's no good way to combo a large amount of these skills, which are useless anyway since only one or two are decent. There's way more I could complain about in this game, but space is running out. I think it suffers from lack of play testers who aren't the dev.

I have played this game a few times now. Only crash was during tutorial. Encountered no graphical glitches yet. Game reminds me of Into the Breach. Yes you are only one cyborg but that's makes the game a challenge. Some good reviews on steam. Seems quite complex with all the gear and options. I don't believe too hard. Sometimes I was successful other times not. I like the game alot.

I didn't like it, the repetitive gameplay, a lot of randomness, and quite a bit of grind.

For something made on game-maker studio or similar by what looks to be a single dev THIS GAME hits it right out of the park as far as a fun little inexpensive strategy title is concerned. Game is MEDIUM difficulty from what I can tell. It is only a 1.0 release as well. So more could be done to perfect it, yet for what it accomplishes I am VERY happy with my purchase. HIGHLY REECOMMENDED on sale! Yes if you want something that you can leave installed on ANY device as it takes up only a few MB, THIS is a greaet choice IMO!
