Drone Swarm

gets very, very boring and repetitive very shortly. a game with a lot of style and not much substance. the story isn't very good either. i'd say its worth it if you can get it for very very very cheap but otherwise, avoid.

The idea is good but its not finished... first i had some superweapon i can attach on top of the ship, nothing says how to use it, if you ask discord they say it fires automatically but inever seen it do that, tried both railgun and the other thing. Next i got to a mission when it asks to move the ship to specific spot... there is literally no place to see the controls for it, it is static in all other missions, wasd does not movie it, mouse does not move it... Its someones half made project that they didnt bother to finish or playtest.

[h1] [b]I AM SWARM[/b] Drones are not toys so make sure to make good use of them. Send them to annihilate spaceships by dragging lines or create barriers for protection. Total drone count is your health, don't loose to many or it's game over. Another ability is charge, where you hold button in one point with your sausage finger and blast drones with high impact. Some objects can be pushed by doing that technique like cargo boxes. Missions include not always defending but also other goals to complete, but on the contrary missions are super short. Story is ok with comic book like cutscenes. Upgrade swarm for new attacks. Very atmospheric. Interesting mix of strategy and unique approach is what makes this one worth checking out. [/h1]

It's by no means a perfect game, but I had fun for 7.5h. You can easily play the game for 15 minutes a day, because a single mission does not take more than 5-10 minutes. Then you get a little bit of story, some upgrades for your ship and the drones that you command. So you still feel like you accomplished something. The story is nice and contains a twist that keeps it interesting. So give it a try, it's not too expensive. The idea feels fresh, although the realization is not perfect. However, you see that the devs tried, they went into direct contact with the community and put a lot of effort into patches after the release. As always, Indie devs need all the support they can get.

It's boring and repetitive a cool idea just not very fun to play

One Of My Favourite Strategy Games, It's Just A Shame How Short It Is

Fun game ngl

Interesting setting. No really, it's kinda cool. But: The game mechanics are iffy and in my opinion too fast paced. If you make a more than minor mistake, you usually have to reload the level. Not big on that myself, but it might be alright for you. Its biggest problem is the writing. My god the writing. I don't really want to go into detail, but it's insultingly bad. ChatGPT could have done better. I mean it. It's basically 2 particular Star Trek episodes rolled into a game - without the depth, without the pacing, without the intrigue. Mike Stoklasa would probably compare it to modern Trek. And dont get me started on the awful cutscene artstyle. Uncanny valley times a hundred. Just have the dialogue ingame, thank you very much. I don't know who your creative director on this was, but I hope they're in another career now and took your writer with them. TL;DR: Even on sale, even for a dollar: Just no. You'll come out of with with a worse mood than you went in with and I hope you see this review first and stay the hell away from this.

Wysoce rozczarowujące. Miałem nadzieję na RTS w kosmosie, gdzie sterujemy setkami dronów różnego przeznaczenia. Zamiast tego dostałem niemalże prostacki 'puzzler' obity klimatami jakiejś space-opery i owych dronów. Całość jest drętwa i nudna, a kolejne plansze coraz mniej interesujące. Nawet nie pamiętam czy porzuciłem z nudów czy irytacji. Niech o popularności tej gry świadczy też 0 poradników Steam, co jest nieczęste w tak 'nowych' grach z masą osiągnięć.

В целом пойдёт, если опустить такие неважные вещи как сюжет и его подача, разнообразие и геймплейное обоснование прокачки. Drone swarm - не ртс, не космосим, ни даже стрелялка, это головоломка где игрок должен оставлять черкаши на крошечном поле боя. Космос, крайне агрессивная среда для человека и безгранично огромная, но не в этой игре, тут космос выглядит скорее как квартира где постоянно происходят пьяные потасовки и свальный грех. Интересно ли играть? Ну... не очень, игру смело можно было порезать на двое и ничего не потерять, корабль картофелина никуда не двигается, окружен роем поехавших семечек и лишь иногда кидается в противника какахами, и использует крылатые ракеты в космосе. Ага. Но чаще безуспешно. А игрок просто чиркает по полю. Сюжет ну... герои шевелят лицами, несут какую-то пургу и бухают время от времени. Сюжет в этой игре точно такой же как и удочки без крючка. Но это неплохая игра в целом.
