Beacon of Neyda es un indie de estrategia y supervivencia donde tenés que construir, defender y explorar en un mundo postapocalíptico lleno de ruinas tecnológicas. Visualmente es una joyita: pixel art hermoso, buena ambientación y una sensación constante de tensión que te atrapa. La parte de gestión y defensa está bien lograda, pero a veces se vuelve un poco repetitiva y el ritmo puede sentirse lento por la falta de recursos. Aun así, tiene buenas ideas, un ambiente inmersivo y se nota el cariño del estudio. Ideal si te gustan los juegos tipo Kingdom o Until We Die. No perfecto, pero con mucho potencial..
Gespielt auf dem Steam Deck. Eine tolle Atmosphäre und gute Umsetzung des Spielkonzeptes ähnlich Kingdom Eighties oder Kingdom Two Crowns. Das Spiel läuft auf dem Steam Deck einwandfrei. Der Schwierigkeitsgrad könnte einige vor Probleme stellen. Fehler des Spielers erfordern durchaus einen Neustart des Spiels. Man muss seine Schritte sorgsam planen. Durchaus zu empfehlen. Ein wenig mehr Musik wäre wünschenswert.
I found this game through a recommendation, and it really caught me off guard in the best way. It’s not your typical indie game — it manages to stand out with an atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive, and a surprisingly innovative approach to strategy. The way it makes you think about resources and timing feels fresh, never forced. On top of that, the art and sound design create a world that pulls you in without saying much. It’s quiet, tense, and deeply immersive. Definitely one of those rare indie titles that dares to do things differently — and actually succeeds.
If you are a fan of side scroller base builders, you will enjoy this game. That said, this game does have a few flaws that do hold it back from being a great game but still worth playing if you like the Kingdom style games from a small dev. The good - Art work is amazing that sets the scene - Solid core game play - Fun maps that add various dynamics that keep it challenging - The lore works well and sets a great scene - Well made maps and adds a mix of base building and exploration The bad - Resource scarcity is an issue that holds back game play that can drag out the game way to much. When I can step away from a game for 15 minutes in order for waves of robots to come in to get enough scrap to proceed that is an issue. - Lack of a farming mechanic. You have to scavenge or fight for scrap, their is limited amount on the map to scavenge and then you have to grind to get more. This game really needs a sustainable farming mechanic. - Short ending that is a bit anti climatic Overall, this is a good game. The lack of farming mechanics does pull it back but this was made by a small team that delivered on a great theme and mood for a base builder. I would love to see the dev to keep expanding on the game, adding in new maps, new mechanics and features can heavily open up the game and keep wanting people to explore more.
This game has an addicting game loop. Also as a fan of lore, this game has it in spades.
fun game, litlte slow at times but entertaining
I enjoyed playing Beacon of Neyda. It's a game that really draws you in, a strategy game in which you have to build and defend your base against waves of enemies. The game is good, but it has been receiving daily updates since its release, as the developers are working on lots of small improvements and there is still a lot to come. I recommend it because it's a fun game that will only get better with time.
I tried out the demo and really enjoyed the game. I’d been looking forward to its release, and now that it’s finally here, it’s still just as fun. This one’s definitely staying in my Steam collection until the day I die.
Venia bajando un ascensor como un campeón, y me esperaron a la salida unos robots como a Michelo cuanda baja del avion en Argentina.
I loved the game, it's a fresh new towerdefense-like subgenre. Good: In overall the exploration is fun I loved the feel while shooting (I would appreciate a reload mechanic). The game pushes you to move and to navigate across the map. The art is just great, creates a fantastic feeling and it colaborates to an inmersive experience. Surprising, the game counts with a perfect voice acting, and when is coming from an indie studio it is such a highlight. To improve: The first thing that comes to the top of my head are the controls, they feels clanky and sometimes when in hurry they not colaborate. Overall: Buy it, it's such a great experince with even more huge potential.
