M.A.C.E.

Shmups should be challenging and fun. Well, M.A.C.E. is not. Game would be nice if release date was 2-3 years ago (I mean on steam). Now, when we have nice choice of great danmaku shooters, this game is... Well... Starting with pros - game have nice graphics. I really like how it looks. And I like weapons system, where we can change shoot mode when we collect more uprades. But that's all. For cons... Well. Anything else. Game is slow peaced. Too slow. Stages are long and boring. For music there are 2 or 3 tracks which are generic as much as can be. They are boring after 10 minutes. For enemies attacks - bullets from behind (outside game area) are big NO. Also, on higer difficulties there is Clusterf★ck that big I can't even realize what the hell. Also, dying with full HP and Shield at random. As well as hitbox of our machine. I still have no idea how big it was. Bosses are rather easy comparing to rest of stage... To sum it up. Yeah, game looks nice but it boring as hell. 2 hours of play might be too much for lot's of players. If you want buy it for cards - wait for bundle. Seriously.

M.A.C.E. es un juego indie shoot em up, a la vista se ve muy bien, tendremos a nuestro alcance varios poderes como el laser, bombas, etc, ademas contamos con un escudo y mejoras. Pero es muy aburrido, la pantalla va demasiado lenta, tal es asi que podes estar 10 minutos en cada nivel, no tiene una introduccion o una historia del porque debemos hacer tal mision. Durante las batallas si tocas al enemigo te pueden eliminar incluso llevando el escudo y la barra de salud llena con un toque. Ni hablar del final. Los 3 jefes son demasiado faciles a comparacion de los niveles que debemos pasar. Agarralo en una jugosa oferta si te gustan los juegos de naves, si no, pasa de largo.

power up is soooo freaking TOO LOOOOW DROP.. and when you died boop gone that is why you hard to kill any one, you just have to wait for them to leave hahahahaha pity.

All'incirca nel 1989 caricai per la prima volta i due dischetti da 3,5 di Xenon 2 sul mio fido amiga 500. Rimasi allibito da quella grafica pazzesca e dal sonoro impressionante, uno sparatutto veritcale spettacolare, una gioia per gli occhi e per le orecchie, ed una giocabilità tutto sommato soddisfacente. Circa 30 anni dopo cercando un qualcosa di simile ho preso M.A.C.E. , e devo dire di esserne soddisfatto, sembra di ritornare ai vecchi tempi; non uno sparatutto da sala giochi, ma un gioco da inizio anni 90 per 16 bit. Oltretutto i ragazzi di EntwicklerX sviluppano tutt'ora per Amiga OS, quindi direi che questi due spiccioli dovremmo proprio darglieli per M.A.C.E., accattatevelo !!

[h1] Generic and uninspired. Slow paced gameplay without much fun. [/h1]

That's 37 minutes of my life wasted on miserably long stages and perpetually weak firepower. I'll never get that time back.

M.A.C.E. ist ein Arcade Shooter der alten Schule. Wie früher am Amiga kann man sich bei diesem Spiel mit guter Grafik und fetziger Musik abreagieren. Der Preis ist okay (5 Euro) und das Spiel kann zum weiter spielen motivieren.

Unfortunately the game is not so good and still unpolished (f.e. no visible feedback at all when your ship gets hit, no decent player ship explosion when you die etc.). Graphics is colorful and 60fps smooth and background music is decent IMHO, but there is nothing "cool" that pushes you further and game design is just average... but at least price is cheap and honest. Still love SWIV, Xenon II, Battle Squadron on the Amiga, that are better than this. There are also better arcade shoot 'em ups on Steam... 6/10 (Jul 2017)

Fun and cute little space shooter. Recommended! 👍

Probably the most dull, boring and tedious 2D shooter I have ever played in my entire life (and I own around 150 of 'em). So bad, I removed this game from my library.
