i'm having fun with dat one!
Aiming feels slightly off. Ship seems to take up a larger proportion of the screen than shown in the store screenshots. Played through to the first boss twice where it crashed at around 50% health both times.

"Astrality" is a student project from Digipen, who are sometimes capable of some surprisingly good games. But not this year, unfortunately the students failed the course (which makes us ask why they insist on publishing every little bit of student homework on Steam... sure, it makes the students feel happy, but is this good for gamers?) This is a third person bullet hell/arcade shooter where you see the back end of a ship flying down a "tunnel" (not unlike an endless runner) and shoot stuff on the way. This is a poor game design choice whenever it gets done, because, well, the developers never considered that the ship itself obscures your view of the enemies and bullets. The technical execution is no better at all. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D visuals which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers. It's very difficult to recommend bad looking games. You're forced to sign a highly questionable yet legally unenforceable End User License Agreement... for such a relatively low effort, low quality product, this comes across more as a delusion of grandeur than anything else. This agreement includes questionable requirements that may attempt to revoke consumer law protections that gamers expect to have, which is also highly problematic. Developers must learn they are here to serve gamers, not control them. I had my cat walk over the keyboard while the EULA was displaying, which fixed that problem for me. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 3 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.
Astrality hat durchaus etwas beeindruckendes. Dieses kostenlose Arcadespiel wurde von Studenten komplett von Null auf programmiert. Und dafür ist das Resultat in der Tat erstaunlich. Das Spiel funktioniert einwandfrei, hat einen klaren Grafikstil und funktioniert tiptop. Damit hebt es sich von so manchem Schrott auf Steam meilenweit ab. Doch so beeindruckend es ist, was diese Studenten hier auf die Beine gestellt haben, hängt die Weiterempfehlung für mich nicht an dem, was die Entwickler geleistet haben, sondern ob das Spiel Spass macht. Und da muss ich leider den Daumen nach unten geben. Das Spiel ist ein klassisches Arcadespiel der alten Schule. Man muss Gegner abschiessen und gleichzeitig ihren Geschossen ausweichen, wie wir es schon x-Mal gesehen und gespielt haben. Und wie geschrieben, ist dieses Spielprinzip gar nicht schlecht umgesetzt. Und wer diese Art von Spiel noch immer mag und gerne spielt, dem würde ich sogar herzlich empfehlen, diesem guten Projekt mal eine Chance zu geben. Die Sache ist nur die: Für die allermeisten Spieler - mich eingeschlossen - ist dieses Spielprinzip schlicht und einfach völlig überholt. Zumal ja der Schwierigkeitsgrad meist nicht gerade tief angesetzt ist. Mir jedenfalls hat das Spiel nach ein paar Minuten keinen Spass mehr gemacht und ich sah keinen Grund, noch mehr Zeit darin zu investieren. Dazu kommt die Grafik, die zwar stimmig völlig auf pinken Retro designt ist, was es aber für mich nicht weniger hässlich macht. Fazit: Vom programmiertechnischen Standpunkt ist Astrality top, leider für mich nicht vom Spielspass her. Für Fans des Genres ein Blick wert. Für alle anderen keine Empfehlung.

Sona kadar gidip oyunu bitirdiğin klasik aksiyon oyunu yani.
Un juego cortito, entretenido y bonito de ver. La historia que te cuenta tu amigo IA está decente y la música se adapta bien a los entornos y al combate. Tal vez una pega: los jefes me parecen muy tanques, pero me gusta el desafío. Buen juego!
Yanlış giden bir eğitim simülasyonunun ardından bir ödül avcısı, hazineleri ve macerayı bulmak için bir yolculuğa çıkar. Grafikleri mazi yi hatırlattı.
Permitanme decir, un juego de putisima madre. Es cortito, he tardado media hora larga en pasarmelo, y tiene sus retos en todos los niveles. Muy bien equilibrado todo. Quizas falta algun pequeño detalle, pero nada del otro mundo, en general esta de puta madre y si tienes media hora libre te merece la pena 100% pd: El Broomer ese es un makina jajaj
