>Mars Taken

In this game you are an engineer who's tasked with repairing this game Also you can't change the volume, the keybindings aren't as it says they are in the options menu (control is to crouch yet options say it is C by default) and the start is one big maze of a spaceport with no icon on your compass or minimap. you also can't change settings in the pause menu mid game. you gotta go to the main menu for that. https://youtu.be/V83oXsl1yYA Nitpicks would be the bad voice acting and poor animations as well as button prompts for things not disappearing after having activated/taken them

PAID: $1.99 (on sale from $9.99). SYSTEM: WIN 10x64, i5 3570, 16GB, GTX 1070. It's not yet in a commercially playable state, but there's a lot here for a one-man game. I can't recommend purchasing it in its current condition, but the game has some merit so I'll give it a positive for now at the $1.99 price point in the expectation that it will continue to be improved. The environments are good, and I really liked the [spoiler]surprise first view of Mars from above[/spoiler]. I like that the character has a motivation and that the plot starts immediately. I like that it is a slightly unusual motivation. It's fully voiced, and the actors seem to be professionals in terms of tone and inflection, though most read their lines stiffly and exactly as written, not even correcting obvious grammatical errors. And it DOES have aliens. Critical bugs: - Saving a game at a medical station did not work; when I quit and continued, Instead, continuing started me at the last auto-save. - A default fight mechanic is needed, even if something simple like left-click for punch and right-click for kick when no weapon is equipped. [spoiler]I was killed by an alien after my character said "I need to find something to defend myself with", and he killed me because I did not know how to fight. This was very frustrating,[/spoiler] Non-critical quality-of-life bugs: - The objective indicator on the compass is not super obvious. At minimum, the player's attention should be pointed to it so he knows it is there. - Physics of driving was frustrating. Buggy slides too much. I know Mars has less gravity than Earth, but I was able to run as if gravity was Earth-like (or being compensated by my suit). Because this is not a reality simulator, I recommend making driving physics more like Earth. - Path to the first driving destination could use a more obvious path. Destination is in a steep crater and I tried to find an easy slope down by driving very far away, before I realized it was not possible to be hurt while driving. - Objective marker on compass needs to be implemented after [spoiler]explosion.[/spoiler] Polish: - Game still has many typos / improper English grammar / awkward dialogue. In some places, the voice actors read the lines exactly as written, even if the lines contained obvious mistakes; re-recording dialogue is probably not a realistic goal but the correct written English will still be an improvement. That said, the dialogue is fairly campy, so simply correcting obvious errors would not bring it to a professional level; that would require a rewrite (the plot itself is good so far, however). - The switch between having control of the character and going into a non-interactive cut scene (or back) is slow / laggy. Some of the non-interactive scenes seem to have many extra frames in which the character does nothing, and it gives the impression the game is frozen. Removing extra frames and maybe giving some sort of visual hint that a non-ineractive scene is happening would help. I will check back in a few weeks.

[i]"This is a story about life, love, and fight.”[/i] That red flag should have clued me into what level of polish I could be expecting from Mars Taken. The nice screenshots, and my love for Sci-Fi, made me raise my hand in acceptance when this game popped up for review.

[h1]1.0/10 - This is the game that cured me of ever giving Early Access a chance[/h1] After I booted up Mars Taken, it told me it was going to gather automated feedback and asked me to disable my firewall for that purpose. I didn't take that too seriously: if it can't send reports, that's no skin off my back. Fast-forward about twenty minutes, to where my computer (with better than recommended specs) overheats and crashes. Upon rebooting, I find that not only has my firewall been tampered with and doesn't work anymore, but my anti-virus has also been corrupted, requiring a fresh install! Now I will give the dev the benefit of the doubt, and assume that this was non-intentional. But the term accidental malware does come to mind...
