I really enjoy this game, It truly nails the cyberpunk blade runner feel. No other game on steam can match this. People are giving negative reviews like its too dark, my goodness just adjust your gamma. This game has amazing detail for a small studio of only two people. They made another game blade net that was amazing as well, very unique, cyber punk feel game of hide and seek with a twist. People who leave negative reviews with only 0.5 hours of play you guys need to re think what you are doing. I have tried every cyber punk game on steam and this game really gives me that vibe, it is totally worth the low price of 19.99/17.99 its ok to point out bugs and issues but this game deserves a positive review. Look at it like this this game has so much potential but if people keep coming and dropping negative reviews after only 5 minutes of playing the game is going to do bad, and the developer might just give up, but if you play the game give good feedback more people are likely to buy the game and the devs will have more energy and resources to make more content. thank you to the devs for this game, it really enjoy it, thanks for all your hard work

What I love is that the world within the game seems so much bigger than what you see. Its atmospheric, dystopian Tokyo feel is served by an excellent soundtrack and unique narrative. Driving around was not only an entertaining part of the gameplay, it gave me an opportunity to explore the nooks and crannies of a city I had never really seen the likes of before.

I think the developer deserves kudos for building a universe that is stylistically reminiscient of Blade Runner without being trite, and filling it was sufficiently interesting things to do to capture my attention for a few hours. With some refinement and a little more time to incubate, the game would be a really hefty competitor in the cyberpunk genre. It has solid foundations and delivers on the intrigue of its concept, especially for an indie game. The uphill part of the battle is building a convincing in-game universe, even if it is a little sparse here.

VolticPistol

Challenging and innovative platformer that keeps the play dynamic by giving you a hero with different strengths and weaknesses after every re-spawn. With different abilities and special power-ups, each new run will force the player to alter strategies accordingly. Gun and sword attack options and an aiming feature that improves shot accuracy give the player lots of options when battling enemies, though some enemies require specific attacks to defeat. Controls are precise and easy to learn. To top it off, the game has a wonderfully high-energy soundtrack.

This game boasts a range of weapons that all have more uses than you might originally think. Need to jump higher or farther do a sword dash. Need to clear a hall of turrets blast them with ricochet from your shotgun.

There are hidden power ups and keys hidden in some levels that make you want to explore just that bit more for the cutting edge to beat the next boss. Over all it is a charming and wonderful indie game with a lovey musical score to accompany it.

First of all: I do this Review especially for the developers, since I hope they will read this and respond, like they did with other Reviews.

The game has a pretty cool idea and really nice concept, however there are some slight issues or rather.. inconveniences?

For example there is a common lack of transparancy, you really should get much more information about who supports you, how much money do you get, what will exactly happen if youdo this or that - a good idea to achieve this would be the implentation of things like “military support-23% conservatives support 75% socialist support 1%”.

Honestly the game has died, for $15 this is very unfilled and doesn’t have content. The game is basically a wait along that pits you against a country (or more fittingly it’s many different provinces which I will admit have a good tid bit of backstory) fighting to get the people to uprise against their government. The game is a shell, a husk waiting to be filled by content like (not story) mechanics, game speeds, a pause option, and other valid criticisms made by the buyers of this.

And if the developer answers this, I have seen you comment and try to communicate with the community but honestly I have not seen many updates actually be fulfilled and action being done. Please, if you want to improve your game then stop using the good ol' politician’s response of promising and waiting for it all to blow right over.

Cyber-doge 2077: Meme runner

It’s finally here. And is it the game of the century masterpiece we were all expecting? Rest assured, despite a few issues, I am pleased to tell you it most certainly IS!

Some have criticized this game for a slow start, but boy howdy does it pick up around the half-way point! The first half of the game is best enjoyed watching your favorite re-run of ‘The Matrix’ on FOX, as Keanu Reeves, the slated star of the show, was unfortunately mistakenly deleted from the game. This bizarre gaffe, however, does nothing to damage this progressive masterpiece, the developers went out of their way to not just allow you to be - but FORCE you to be a furry.

Its ok.

An amusing distraction. Fun synth wave stuff/scenery and some suitable music and a bunch of memes.

Sometimes a bit annoying if you mistime a jump or come off the TRON bike and hit a wall and if you are going for cheevos can be a bit grindy. They are all possible if you can be bothered to put in the time farming coins / getting gud.

The high score one might be beyond you, and by that point you may have become bored, but its a fun game to play for a bit when you just want to pass the time listening to podcasts or whatever.

So I found this game in my qeue (a bit by surprise). And since I really like political-sim and strategy games, I decided to give it a try. Yes, it is really early access but under it’s surface is a good strategy game. You have to constantly run polls and ads, so you win over a state on several topics. But at the same time keep an eye on your money. First few turns took a bit of figuring out what to do, but after that I found the perfect strategy. Won my first game fairly easy with 430 - 108 electoral votes. I do hope they add more elements so there’s more gameplay.

Good game in development. A bit pricy for the state it is currently in now, but I trust that as updates come out and it leaves Early Access, the game will be higher quality. Definitley a good game if you’re into political stragety.
