*** NOTE: This review was this games first review here on Steam.
"Don't Get Eaten!" is a pretty unoriginal name for a pretty over-done game concept that is done using nothing but Unreal Marketplace assets. ..However, this game is pretty well done and I genuinely believe that this indie developer or developers made a game that they enjoy playing! It's actually pretty fun and well worth the $3.99 USD price of admission even with its launch day faults.

The problems and suggestions for this indie developer or developers to fix:
- The game settings and audio sliders do not seem to work or save. FIX THIS ASAP!
- The game has fawking disgusting MOTION BLUR that cannot be turned off. - FIX ASAP!
- There are moments when the game lags out, but I believe making the settings actually work can resolve this.
- Why are there no Steam achievements? Come on man, get with the times here!
- Even more important (at least to me).. Why are there no leaderboards? Add a SCORE and LEADERBOARDS FFS!
Suggestions to add or change:
- Let's add some torches on poles that we can place that will help us light up the area, maybe make them cheap, like $20?
- If there's no grenades that we can buy or use, this would be a nice add.
- Melee attacks would be nice! Maybe we can buy a baseball bat and a barbed baseball bat as an upgrade?
- If there's never any gun turrets that we can buy, another suggestion!
- Armor that we can buy? ..and upgrade too?
- Adding the ability to save your game and reload it later would be nice.. Maybe you can only save between waves?
As it is, this game is still fun to play and I can recommend this one...
MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS LAUNCH DAY SCORE: 75% ..This could be higher if some of the things above are done!
RECOMMENDED, This game is priced low enough that some exceptions can be made for some of this games shortcomings!
