Nice art style, but this is quite boring and derivative. Overheating system tries to spice things up, I guess? I just don't think the full game will be worth my time based on this prologue.
Good turn-based strategy game. I enjoy it and would like to see more enemy/weapon types in the future. Some suggestions: - speed 2x 4x for player side the attack animation is good but I don't need to watch it every time at 1x speed - more fluent control system the map is not that big, sometimes I want to see the battle clearer but it just hits the bottom and I can not scroll down more - enemys' information before(during) the battle I would like to check the enemy's information (like hp, type, skills...) before the battle or when I set down the mach. That will give the game more strategy. - (maybe) more rouge-lite maps. Some random plot? I am not sure...

Great roguelike game.
An interesting strategy based game with cool robots theme. It's just a prologue but actually worth playing to me at least. Try it for your own experience since it's free :)
The Heat idea is nice but the Turned Base in 2022 is a No Go = You can only shoot in 4 directions ...
The only outstanding cons to this game are that the UI can't be resized and music gets cut abruptly instead of fading out.
... mech roguelike turn-based-tactics...
Not mind-blowing nothing particularly unique but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The mechanics and UI are easy to understand, the mech movement and attacks are flashy, controls are responsive and easy to adjust if you misclick. Good variety of weapons and strategy, the mechs have three interchangeable parts: core, main weapon, secondary weapon. Although here there's only one enemy type in prologue I expect way more from full release. My only complaint would be the health regeneration mechanics. You only regenerate a little HP after each mission, and there's only two space stations you pass where you can refill HP and buy stuff, and you can't go back to the station once you pass it. I spent all my $$ repairing my main mech and went into the later missions with everyone below 50% HP, I understand it's standard rogeulite mechanics but man that's gonna get annoying. I don't want to have to go back to previous saves and replay missions just to try to survive with more HP so I can progress without dying over and over (you replenish what looks like 15% HP when you die/finish mission). Hopefully full release has an easy mode where you repair 50% HP or full after each mission, gradually getting lower and lower HP as you progress is annoying and I barely finished the prologue, doubt I'd make it through the campaign with current HP mechanics as is.
rly nice turnbase game, im looking for discount on main game
Игра "Ignited Steel: Prologue" оставляет смешанные впечатления. С одной стороны, концепция пошаговых боев мехов с карточной системой управления выглядит свежо и интересно. Визуальный стиль, хоть и пиксельный, вполне приятен. Пролог дает возможность познакомиться с основными механиками, такими как перегрев, энергия и тактическое позиционирование. Уничтожать вражеских мехов, грамотно применяя карты, в начале действительно увлекательно. Однако, игра страдает от нескольких проблем. Обучение недостаточное, и многие нюансы приходится постигать методом проб и ошибок. Бои иногда кажутся затянутыми и однообразными, особенно когда сталкиваешься с мехом, защищенным броней. Случайность при выпадении карт может существенно повлиять на исход боя, что иногда раздражает. Не хватает разнообразия в типах врагов и окружении. В целом, "Ignited Steel: Prologue" - это многообещающая демо-версия, но ей требуется доработка геймплея и контента, чтобы стать по-настоящему захватывающей игрой. Стоит следить за развитием проекта, но пока что это скорее любопытный эксперимент, чем полноценная игра.
