Insurrection: Cyborgs Awakening

"Insurrection: Cyborgs Awakening" is one of literally thousands of student projects infesting Steam. It's from ESAT. While student projects tend to be better quality than most "amateur" made games, we must still question what value such projects have for gamers. As with all student projects, this isn't really a fully fleshed out game, it's just the result of an academic exercise, and as such it has much more limited value as a game than a professionally developed game would have. Educational institutions should not be using Steam as a dumping ground for homework assignments (especially if the students didn't even pass the course). Sure, it helps their marketing and helps the students feel good about themselves, but this is another case of a business putting themselves before the needs of gamers. The students made a Double Dragon style console/arcade brawler/beat 'em up game with a cyborg theme. Sorry, they tried but failed to make it and walked away after publishing an incomplete game onto Steam Early Access. Which I guess a lot of "professional" developers do, too, but it's inexcusable behaviour anyway. I guess ESAT doesn't teach their students that it's important to finish what they start. The developers abandoned this 3 years and 5 months ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is just polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuinely, completely made games. This looks a lot like it was designed for consoles, but released on Steam instead by mistake. While this is on PC, it has all the hallmarks and deficiencies of a console game, from the clunkier than needed control scheme to the less than cutting edge graphics. There's 10's of thousands of PC games on Steam, and PC gamers deserve only the best. This might not appeal to many gamers due to the lack of PC-centric design. It's unclear why this never made it to the video game console appliances it seems to have been designed for. The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. It would be unethical for students to try charge money for their homework assignments, so you don't have to pay any money for this. But you'd still have to spend your time downloading this, and "time is money", as they say. There's the other problem, too... as a student project, this wasn't made for gamers. There's no requirement for them to polish and balance the game properly, all they need is something to show the faculty so they can get their grade and move on. Let's once more ask... why is that good for gamers? It's obviously not delivering a solid product. Yet here it is, on the store page, and here you are, reading my review for a student demo that's going to waste your time. While genuine amateur developers who made real products get ignored because they have to compete with this stuff. In some ways, this deluge of student projects on Steam is harmful to everyone. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at [b]only 4 concurrent players[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. This student project/tech demo/glorified homework assignment provides no Steam profile benefits, no +1 to your game count, and little value to gamers (because it's just a small, unpolished student project), so I can't recommend this over the thousands of full, professionally made games on Steam.

Bu kooperatif retrowave oyununda biraz kıç tekmeleyin!!! Driftonics mega şirketinin şeytani kölelerini yok etmek ve insanlığı cyborg tehdidinden kurtarmak için güçlü yetenekler ve kombinasyonlar kullanın.

美術風格還不錯，但遊戲內容單調無聊，重複性很高缺乏有趣的變化，打擊感也不好，與BGM相比特效音太小聲幾乎要被覆蓋了。 遊戲內只有手把的控制教學，讓用鍵盤的人只能自己慢慢摸索，已整理好給需要的人。 上下左右(WASD)、跳(空格鍵)、衝刺(Shift)、拳(U)、腳(I)、衝擊(按O蓄力)、撿道具(E)、盾(Q)、特殊攻擊(範圍技)(R)

Haven't played a beat-em-up in a while...I forgot how FUN crackin' skulls is! The story is something-something EVIL CORPORATION, something-something CYBORGS, something-something WHO CARES! GO PUNCH DUDES! IT'S AWESOME! You play as a buff bot boi...I didn't understand if he's a cyborg, or if he's being operated remotely by a pilot or what...doesn't matter! He has all the skills needed to save the city or something! There are 4 levels and a final boss to fight thru, each level being a gorgeous synthwave/neo-tokyo full of goons...soundtracked exactly the way it should be. The mobs are basic stuff, but satisfying to pulverize. I think I counted 4 types, plus the boss, but I was having fun and apparently not paying much attention to detail....odd for me. You have a basic punch/kick, and a charge attack for dealing with problems, and also a dash that uses stamina. There are batteries and street-chicken scattered around to restore your stats. The game should be clearable in less than 1hr, if you can beat the final boss... This is a LOT of fun, but it's VERY much in early access as I write this, and it does show. Some notable current issues: After the opening scene, It's difficult to tell who's talking in the dialogue box. You encounter a taunting villain who gets in your way...but you don't see him at all, he doesn't even have a face sprite yet. There are some big obvious vending machines scattered around, they LOOK important, like a shop, but they do nothing. The enemies are dumb/erratic, and sometimes seem more interested is running than fighting...and they sometimes spawn IN the pavement. Also, some hit boxes are weird. The Large charging enemy goon is WAY too strong, he does a ton of dmg, and tends to instantly counter any hits he takes. The only safe-ish way I found to fight him is the charge attack. The charge attack really needs to be aim-able. Enemies move too much. The final boss lady has ENORMOUS hp, and constantly summons goons, including the big guy...her attacks aren't that bad, but you'll get run down by the mobs...for some reason the fight has no music, and she seems to be missing a stagger animation, as there would be lengthy spurts where she'd just stand there getting punched...and even so, I still can't even come close to beating her....dat HP's too dang big. ^ But all of that is totally fixable, and even in it's current state, the game's great! The final boss's difficulty is the only "semi-gamebreaking" problem. My only nitpick with the game is, it would be nice of controls could be remapped. Even as it is now, this is a totally R A D I C A L time to be had! It plays pretty well, looks and sounds exactly like you'd want, and is...early access flaws excluded...pretty much perfect!

Игра Insurrection: Cyborgs Awakening погружает в мрачное киберпанк-будущее, где человечество находится на грани выживания. Здесь нет места сантиментам, только холодный расчет и сталь. Разработчики создали атмосферу, пропитанную неоновым светом и безнадежностью, где каждый твой выбор имеет значение. Геймплей сочетает в себе тактические элементы и напряженные перестрелки, заставляя игрока постоянно быть начеку. Управление киборгами, каждый из которых обладает уникальными способностями, открывает простор для множества стратегий. Сюжет интригует, раскрывая тайны корпораций и поднимая вопросы о природе сознания. Отличный выбор для любителей жанра, готовых к испытаниям.

[h1]Before I played Insurrection: Awakening of the cyborgs, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Gráficamente el juego es espectacular, me encanta la estética y todos los detallitos que tiene. Jugablemente es divertido, aunque faltaría un poco de variedad en los enemigos para que no sea tan repetitivo. Ah, y el menú de créditos está roto. Muy disfrutable en general, y aún más siendo gratis :D

https://youtu.be/KIF6qt_6OKI видееобзор! Хотел лайк поставить, но порою слишком скучно.. Всё однотипно и спустя полчаса играть надоедает:(. Графон как-будто из 2000х, а так игра прикольная местами
